UltraTile ProFlex SPES Standard Set Flexible Tile Adhesive 20kg

UltraTile ProFlex SPES Standard Set Flexible Tile Adhesive 20kg is a single part, standard set, flexible adhesive for wall and floor tiles. It is specially formulated for extended workability, allowing for projects to have that last minute touch without worry the adhesive will set too soon.

Specially formulated for enhanced adhesion and flexibility, the adhesive is ideal for areas where slight movement or vibration may occur. Classified as S1 in accordance with EN12004 it has the high level of deformation for greater tolerance to movement.

The adhesive unique qualities make it ideal for fixing tiles to a whole array of surfaces and substrates:

• Concrete
• Sand/cement screed
• Plywood overlay (15mm min)
• Tile backer boards
• Cement faced fibre boards
• Anhydrite/calcium sulphate/gypsum based screeds
• Tile on Tile* (Existing ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiles (overlay) known as "Tile on Tile")
• Firm and stable plaster
• Plasterboard

Specifications

High-Quality Construction

• 
  ProWarm Electric Underfloor Heating Sticky Mat: Utilizes the same premium cable as the ProWarm Loose Cable kit. The mat incorporates a sticky fibreglass mesh to ensure optimal heat output by maintaining proper cable spacing. Installation is straightforward—simply roll out the mat to cover the desired heating area.
• 
  Heating Cable: Series-type with twin conductors and a 4m cold lead at one end.
• 
  Cable Composition: The resistance heating wire is encased in a fluoropolymer insulation layer, wrapped in protective metal shielding, and enclosed in a final plastic outer sheath. The twin conductor cable has a final diameter of 2mm.
• 
  Junction Design: Unique design for hot and cold lead junctions ensures they are 100% foolproof.

Standards and Approvals

• 
  Standards: Meets all test requirements of IEC 60335.
• 
  Certifications: CE certified by SGS.

Performance and Benefits

• 
  Cost-Effective: Provides heat precisely where needed, optimizing heat utilization and minimizing losses.
• 
  Flexibility: Can be installed in any area or floor layout.
•

Installation

Please Note: This is a brief guide. Always refer to the full installation manual for comprehensive instructions.

1. Plan Your Layout:

• Divide the floor into a series of rectangles. Use these measurements to calculate the number and sizes of mats needed, excluding permanent or static fixtures from your calculations.

2. Prepare the Subfloor:

• For screed over concrete floors, lay insulation boards to minimize heat loss and ensure quicker warm-up times.

3. Lay the Heating Mat:

• Start with the first run of the mat. Cut the mat (leaving the cable intact) at the end of each run, turn it 90° or 180°, and continue laying.
• Once the area is covered, adjust the mat so that the loops are evenly spaced.
• Secure the mat to the subfloor using the special tape provided.

4. Electrical Connections:

• Install an RCD fused spur to power the thermostatic controller/programmer and the mat system.
• Lay the temperature probe from the timer-thermostat onto the floor, position it equidistant between two cable loops, and secure it to the surface.
• Position the unheated power supply cable from the end of the mat system near the thermostat.
• Make all necessary connections to the power supply. Run the heaters for no more than 10 minutes to ensure they are heating up properly.

5. Finish the Flooring:

• Option 1: Apply a thin, self-levelling screed over the mat and allow it to dry completely before laying tiles.
• Option 2: Directly trowel flexible tile adhesive over the mat and lay the floor tiles.
• After grouting, let the tile adhesive cure fully before switching on the system.
