[QUOTE="Brian_West, post: 958247, member: 52127"] I'll try explaining a little differently. The distance from the mortar bed to the top edge of the foam block is 15mm. In this depth I have to fit the Ditra heat on a thinset bed so that it is level with the top of the foam block. Ditra heat is 7.5mm thick so that leaves a compressed thinset bed of about 7.5mm. Not good. Schluter say use a 6mm trowel which would give a compressed bed of about 2-3mm. So if I use a 6mm trowel the Ditra heat will be too low by about 4-5mm. Then I would end up having to put a thick bed under the tile. Not good either. Attached image shows where I have zoomed in on where the Ditra heat should butt against the foam block (hashed area).
