Prime surface with TM Primeplus
Lay Decoupler/Anti fracture Mat (with either TM Ultimate or TM Setaflex)
Fix Tiles with TM Ulitmate or Setaflex
Grout with TM Grout 3000 with flexi master added

still what i would recommend.
Other adhesive manufacturers products and uncoupling mats available. ;)

Not quite sure I understand? The hardie backer boards are concrete based so conduct heat really well.

So I was sent this by James Hardie and also Polypipe sent it to me too.

Thing is to my knowledge, neither Polypipe nor JamesHardie lay tiles for a living, and that's the reason taking their advice alone can be hazardous.
What BOTH fail to mention is that the overlay boards are
cellulose-fibre-gypsum boards and need Preping accordingly.

I've fixed on this system twice now both times boards were screwed to the floor (new screed) but not glued. Ditra fixed to the boards then tiled. The builder took advice from the manufacturer and this is hat he was told. First one was about 3 years ago and no problems so far.

That bit always worries me:rolleyes:
