Anyone used it ?

DCM - PRO System | Heated Floor Mat | Warmup - http://www.warmup.co.uk/underfloor-heating/electric/dcm-pro-system

There's a video on there, that self adhesive mat... really ?

 

[Qwerty]

It could work..... if it's anything like the adhesive that impey use on their waterguard tanking it will be fine! Would be interested in getting hold of a sample for another forum test!

 

[Flintstone]

That water guard stuff is like a butyl tape, this looks like it's clear! Takes a lot of faith to rely on that

 

[Qwerty]

But the actual glue itself could be clear. The glue on conventional ufh mats is pretty good, just not enough of it. Imagine that on that 1m wide roll. Will be like the old Solvite adverts!!!

hi guys I use warm up dcm pro all the time. the self adhesion is increadle on how it works. it's the easiest ufh to use and it's quick. the adhesion actually gets stickier over time and once it's warmed up the glue gets better. it's great stuff and just trust it. I love it and it's doesn't cost as much as the others on the market. hope I've helped you on trusting it at first I wasn't sure but I've used it and not had a problem

Do you Need to prime the floor prior to sticking the matt like water guard? Or not?

 

[Flintstone]

On insulation boards no, as long as they are dust free. On cement boards yes

Andy why have you got different spacing between cables?

 

[Flintstone]

2 and 3 row alterntive spacing gives 190w per m.
2 row gives 230w per m
And 3 row gives 150 if I remember correctly.
3 and 4 row alternating gives 130w per m

It’s a product I’m still not sure on, it comes at a premium price compared to other similar systems which you stick the mat down with adhesive but it goes down quicker. Your relying totally on the thin layer of glue for the whole job, and the castelations aren’t tapered just straight so not sure how the adhesive locks in?

I think with this system you have to self-level, unless i am
reading the instructions from your link wrong

 

[Flintstone]

No Albert, you don’t have to but you can. I did self level but I wouldn’t next time
