It stating on the technical datasheet that weber standard set is suitable for heated floors & says as follows.
The heat must be turned off & should been turned on gradually at least 5 days after tile.If the substrate is timber it must be overboarded * weber AD250 used in the mix hope this helps

your right Andy, my problem is it was clearly stated on the front of the bag and now its not. My first point of reference is the info on the bag.
if I go into a shop to buy some floor tile https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ for, say, porcelain on wet ufh and BAL, Ultra, Ardex and Mapei all clearly state 'suitable for porcelain and ufh' on the bag I will pick one of those. I will not search the web for the spec sheets to find out what each one does, hence I will not use Weber set plus eco.

I see your point sorry, I use Weber on almost all my jobs so because I've used it on uhf jobs just took it for granted it was incoparated within that data on the back of the bag still

I have used it for 10 years or so, and has always said on the bag what it can be used for. They changed the bags and removed the specs, so I changed https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ manufacturer.

Apologies that there seems to have been some confusion regarding this, hopefully I can clarify things.


Previously, the packaging for weberset plus stated that it was suitable for use with underfloor heating. On the back of the bag and on the datasheet it clarified that this was only the case if mixed with weber AD250. This essentially gave a C2T https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ S2 properties.


We wanted to make things a bit clearer as we felt that it may not have been clear that this product was only suitable over UFH when using an additive. To do this, we decided to remove mention of underfloor heating from the bag.


If you wished to, using weberset plus, mixed with weber AD250, over underfloor heating is still perfectly possible.


As per BS 3585-3 we would always recommend an https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ with a minimum C1S1 classification is used for underfloor heating. If you were looking for a solution that was not “bag and bottle” we would suggest considering an https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ such as weberset rapid SPF, weberset SPF or weberset pro lite rapid.


In terms of datasheets, our website contains the latest version, which can be found in the Download Centre or the Product Documentation section for each product.


Apologies again for the confusion and we hope that this clears things up.


Please don’t hesitate to get in contact if you would like to discuss this further or have any other concerns.

I have to say I find that misleading and imagine it was removed down to a claim against weber. Glad I never used it with ufh

yes Harry, I have to agree.
I've used it for years and never seen anywhere it needs an addmix for ufh.
the staff at my local CTD where never aware of this and have not given this info out.
and just checking the website of weber it isn't clear still

I have not had any failures (so far) and will never be using weber again.
as you say Harry, maybe had some problems, we will never know. But I find there behaviour to be under hand to say the least.
