Description The Amber Underfloor Heating Decoupling Membrane is a polyethylene membrane with rounded square shaped studs that form channels specifically designed to embed and fasten electric heating cables. It measures 5.5mm thick and 1 metre wide, and is available in 15m rolls or 1m x 1m units. (Multiple units supplied in a single roll.) The Amber Underfloor Heating Decoupling Membrane offers many benefits, including 40% higher compression resistance, 45% more tensile strength and reduced curling and rollback due to its sturdy polyethylene construction. The membrane when paired with the Amber Heating Cable provides comfortable warm floors allowing heat from the electric cable to be distributed evenly across the floors. What is a decoupling membrane used for? There are a number of uses for a decoupling membrane such as Amber Underfloor Heating Decoupling Membrane, including: Preventing cracks and damage Subfloors can shift over time, causing cracks in flooring. A decoupling membrane provides a barrier which absorbs these movements, preventing tension and stress from reaching and damaging the floor Improving durability By reducing stress, a decoupling membrane can help make both tiled flooring and underfloor heating systems more durable, and therefore longer lasting. Reducing noise A decoupling membrane acts as a sound barrier, so can reduce the transmission of noise in a home. Increasing heat distribution By creating a more stable substrate, a decoupling membrane helps ensure even heat distribution, making underfloor heating more efficient and effective. Improving tile adhesion A decoupling membrane helps to create a better bond between the tiled flooring and the substrate or sub-floor, improving the adhesion of the tiles.
