Nuheat Membrane · 54 sq ft (3' 3'' x 16.5')
Nuheat Membrane significantly decreases the time, difficulty, floor height, weight, & cost of your installation.
Nuheat Membrane is a tile underlayment that can be installed over the entire subfloor for uncoupling, crack isolation, and waterproofing purposes. It replaces the need for a second layer of plywood or concrete backer board in most tile installations.
The polypropylene plastic layer features square-shaped columns which form channels specially designed to embed and hold Nuheat Cable. The shape of Nuheat Membrane also functions as a vapor management system that allows moisture to escape from the substrate during the curing process. Its polypropylene layer is heat-welded to a non-woven polypropylene fabric that absorbs thin-set and creates a strong bond to the subfloor.
Nuheat's recommended spacing in membrane is alternating 2-3-2 pillar spacing which produces 12 watts/sqft. If you are installing over a concrete slab and require more heat, we recommend using 2-pillar spacing which produces 15 watts/sqft. The Sq footage on a Nuheat cable is meant to be at 2-3-2 spacing; i.e. an N1C050 cable heats 50 Sq Ft based on 2-3-2 spacing in the membrane. If you space it closer, it heats less area.
Add Nuheat Waterproofing seam tape for a waterproof floor system.
Additional benefits include:
• Even floor heat distribution
• On-site adjustments are made easily for complex floorplans
• No need for a second layer of plywood or concrete backer boards
• Lowers the finished floor height
• Significantly reduces installation time & material cost of installing
