Dear Frances,
Mapei Keraflex can be used on the walls without no issues providing the substrate is solid, dry and contamination free.
We unfortunately do not have any test results to confirm if any Mapei adhesives will work with the Aquaseal tanking system. However given the description the Aquaseal tanking system sound similar to our Mapei Shower Waterproofing Kit but it would be recommended to confirm with Everbuild what classification of adhesive they would suggest to adhere tiles to their system.
On the understanding that Everbuilkd have confirmed a C2TE adhesive is suitable and the underfloor heating system has been commissioned Mapei Keraflex could potentially be used to bond the 450x450mm tiles
We hope that this information is of benefit to you and if you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind Regards,
Luke Rowberry |
