Great tutorial guys. Will be watching these one more time, before I do my bathroom this week. I liked the test for thinset coverage and advice on remixing. I bought the Schluter All Set thinset and will thoroughly read their instructions. I am hoping the waterproof mat will help keep water from reaching my mortar pan. Would it make sense to keep thinset away from the edges of the mat and apply a flexible latex caulk around the edges?
Another good tutorial, some good tips! I am actually going to start a basement job with a washroom and the client requested heated floor, and was wondering if ditra has any major competition in cost with quality in mind?
Thanks Chris, there are other systems but we haven’t broken them down in terms of cost. Ditra Heat Duo is something to consider if you’re installing over concrete.
Love you guys! thank you! Do you have any instructional videos of applying ditra heat over a curbless shower? I'd like to use a Wedi system, or something similar, to create a curbless shower but also would like to heat the shower floor. Any ideas? thanks again
Not yet but that’s our plan. We recommend using a separate wire for the pan. That way if the main wire is compromised the pan area can still be heated. Schluter has a great video showing how to heat a curbed shower pan and the outside floor th-cam.com/video/2Ui26uQbJjo/w-d-xo.html
Good day to both of you . I would need help if possible . I put a SLC over my wood substrate . Primed it. It was naturally a disaster. I gringded/sand it . Naturally not flat but not bad. Question 1: could I use the modified thinset just to fill some of the gaps, leave it settle., then put my layer of thinset/Ditra heat? Question 2: do I need a primer to put over my SLC ??
I keep hearing different things on this but my understanding based on looking on the schluter website is that if it’s going under the mat it has to be unmodified.
I am currently installing ditra heat membrane over plywood and self leveler cement. The instructions on both the membrane and all set (modified) mortar, state that its the correct mortar to use.
I can see where the Pre-Cut Ditra heat sheets would be very convenient for a small bathroom. Great video.
The mats are easier in small spaces versus rolls, much easier to handle

Great video, as usual!

@@HomeRepairTutor Sounds awesome. Hate to sound impatient but any idea when we can expect this project? Thanks again!

Do you have to put all set under the orange too?
What happens if you install the membranes upside down? Any ideas?
Never cut the shower pan materials on half you already dealing with the edges around the shower ! You are good!! But you can do better 🙌🏽
2:19, WONG, you cannot use modified thinset with shluter products

@@mitchanonymous1 Under or over = unmodified
If being installed over a wood substrate, modified thinset can be used
