INTEGRATED CRACK ISOLATION
Specially engineered to bridge minor subfloor cracks, preventing lateral stresses from transferring to the tile surface and ensuring long-term aesthetic integrity. -
■
MOLD & MILDEW RESISTANCE
Inorganic composition does not support fungal growth, maintaining a hygienic environment behind your tiles in high-moisture bathrooms.
Professional Application Guide
Steam Room Construction
Mandatory for high-vapor environments. Effectively blocks steam from penetrating wall assemblies and reaching the thermal envelope.
Curb-less Shower Prep
Flexible architecture allows for easy transitioning between sloped shower pans and the main bathroom floor for barrier-free designs.
Kitchen Backsplashes
Provides an additional layer of protection behind cooktops and sinks, preventing incidental water damage to drywall or plaster.
Installation Engineering Checklist:
- ■ Thin-set Selection: Use only unmodified thin-set mortar for bonding the membrane to the substrate as per TCNA guidelines.
- ■ Overlap Protocol: Maintain a minimum 2-inch (5 cm) overlap at all seams and corners. Use BBS Sealing Tape for additional joint security.
- ■ Leak Testing: Conduct a 24-hour flood test after installation and before tiling to verify 100% watertight integrity in shower pans.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this membrane compatible with floor heating?
Yes. It is thermally stable and can be installed over radiant floor heating systems, provided the thin-set mortar used is compatible with the heating elements.
Why is ICC-ES certification important?
ICC-ES certification proves that the material has been independently tested to meet International Building Code (IBC) and Residential Code (IRC) requirements, essential for professional inspections in BC and Ontario.
How long should I wait before tiling?
You can begin tiling immediately after the membrane has been embedded in the thin-set and the joints have been properly sealed. There is no curing wait time required for the membrane itself.
