Laticrete HYDRO BAN Liquid Waterproofing Membrane

Description Laticrete HYDRO BAN Liquid Waterproofing Membrane is a thin, load bearing waterproofing and crack isolation membrane that does not require the use of fabric in the field, coves or corners and bonds directly to a wide variety of substrates. It is a single component self-curing liquid rubber polymer equipped with Microban® antimicrobial technology that forms a flexible, seamless waterproofing membrane. Suitable uses for Laticrete HYDRO BAN Liquid Waterproofing Membrane: Interior and exterior Swimming pools, fountains, and water features Shower pans, stalls, and tub surrounds Industrial, commercial, and residential bathrooms and laundries Spas and hot tubs Kitchens and food processing areas Terraces and balconies over unoccupied spaces Countertops and facades Steam rooms (when used with a vapour barrier) Advantages of Laticrete HYDRO BAN Liquid Waterproofing Membrane: You can install tile, thin brick, and stone directly onto Laticrete HYDRO BAN Single component and ready to use — easy and quick to apply using a brush or roller Thin; only 0.5–0.8 mm thick when cured Anti-fracture up to 3 mm over shrinkage and other non-structural cracks No fabric required (for gaps or cracks with up to 3 mm horizontal movement) Bonds directly to metal and PVC plumbing fixtures Laticrete HYDRO BAN is rapid drying — allows for flood test in approximately 2 hours after final cure (at 21°C/50% RH) Changes in colour from a light sage to an olive green when cured — lighter colour allows for ease of inspection Safe — no solvents and non-flammable Equipped with Microban® antimicrobial technology to protect the treated article Conforms to EN 14891 DM OP Exceeds ANSI A118.10 and A118.12 IAPMO approved “Extra Heavy Service” rating per TCNA performance levels (RE: ASTM C627 Robinson Floor Test) Suitable substrates for Laticrete HYDRO BAN Liquid Waterproofing Membrane: Concrete Cement Mortar Cement Plaster CMU Brick Gypsum Wallboard Exterior Glue Plywood (Interior Only) Cement fiber board Ceramic Tile and Stone Ceramic Tile and Stone Cement Terrazzo Limitations of Laticrete HYDRO BAN Liquid Waterproofing Membrane: DO NOT bond to OSB, particle board, interior glue plywood, luan, Masonite® or hardwood surfaces. DO NOT use over dynamic expansion joints, structural cracks or cracks with vertical differential movement (See HYDRO BAN Installation Instructions, DS 663.5 for complete instructions). The installation of Waterproofing Membranes in submerged applications must be installed in a manner that creates a continuous “waterproof pan effect” without voids or interruptions. Therefore, applying waterproofing membranes in limited areas (e.g. solely at the waterline) in submerged applications is not recommended. DO NOT install over structural cracks, cracks with vertical movement or cracks with >3 mm horizontal movement DO NOT use as a vapour barrier (especially in steam rooms). DO NOT expose unprotected membrane to sun or weather for more than 30 days. DO NOT expose Laticrete HYDRO BAN to negative hydrostatic pressure, excessive vapour transmission, rubber solvents or ketones. Must be covered with ceramic tile, stone, brick, dry pack thick bed mortar beds (non-submerged applications), terrazzo or other traffic-bearing finish. Use protection board for temporary cover. Obtain approval by local building code authority before using product in shower pan applications. DO NOT install Laticrete HYDRO BAN directly over single layer wood floors, plywood tubs/showers/fountains or similar constructs. NOT FOR USE beneath cement or other plaster finishes. Consult with plaster manufacturer for their recommendations when waterproofing membrane is required under plaster finishes. NOT FOR USE under self-levelling underlayments or decorative wear surfaces. Note: Surfaces must be structurally sound, stable and rigid enough to support ceramic/stone tile, thin brick and similar finishes. Installation: Laticrete HYDRO BAN can be applied using a paint brush, roller or trowel. All areas must have two (2) coats to ensure waterproofing capabilities. When using a paint roller, substrate will not show through Laticrete HYDRO BAN if coated with 0.5 – 0.8 mm of dried membrane. Colour changes from a light sage to olive green when fully cured. Refer to DS 663.5 for complete installation instructions prior to using product. Allow any pre-treated areas to dry to the touch. Apply a liberal coat** of HYDRO BAN with brush or roller over substrate including pre-treated areas. Apply another liberal coat** of HYDRO BAN over the first coat of HYDRO BAN. Let topcoat dry to the touch, approximately 1–2 hours at 21°C and 50% RH. When last coat has dried to the touch, inspect final surface for pinholes, voids, thin spots or other defects. HYDRO BAN will dry to an olive green colour when it’s dry to touch. Use additional HYDRO BAN to seal defects. Installing Finishes: Once HYDRO BAN has dried to the touch, ceramic tile, stone or brick may be installed by the thin bed method with a Thin-Set tile adhesive. Allow HYDRO BAN to cure 2 hours at 21°C and 50% RH before covering with, thick bed mortar, epoxy adhesives, terrazzo or moisture sensitive resilient or wood flooring. Do not use solvent-based adhesives directly on Laticrete HYDRO BAN.
