Ditra Heat, electric floor heat testing and install. Electric floor warming system installation. Ditra Heat, Updated instructions on how to install it start to finish. The wire now allows for more than one configuration. Ditra Heat is a floor warming system made by Schluter, it is a three component system consisting of the Ditra Mat, the cable system and the thermostat, it comes in both 120, and 240 volt. The Ditra mat for the Ditra heat is configured in such a way that the heat wire can be easily inserted and routed through the mat to heat the desired areas, the whole floor can be heated, but can also be used to heat different zones. The Ditra mat is installed the same way as the regular Ditra uncoupling membrane, and serves the same function with the added capability of accepting the heat wire. One important difference is that a ¼” square notched trowel is used to spread the thinset instead of the regular Ditra trowel. Once the mat has been installed, the wire can be routed into the mat. The heating cable must be placed no closer than 3” from the wall, and 8” from a heat source, (Hot air vent, baseboard heat, etc.). The cable and sensors must be tested with the appropriate meters before they are installed, after they have been placed in the mat, and after the tile has been installed to retain the warrantee. All the directions are included with the system. All tile installed by Sal DiBlasi, Elite-tile Company, in the Boston North Shore area.

Sal, I'm a professional tile setter and I take great pride in a job well done, but in my opinion, YOU are the undisputed MASTER of tile setting. Huge respect for you and your work, and thank you for the quality and volume of videos as you share your lifetime of experience and expertise with us. In your opinion, what is the best electric floor heating system on the market and why? If you don't have time to explain why, please just simply state which system you prefer and/or endorse. Much appreciated Sal!
Sal, great videos! Love the detail - you are the best!
Could've used this vid a couple weeks ago! There are little things missing on the Schluter vids and even in their manuals that come with!
This is an abbreviated version of a longer video. ua-cam.com/video/BI0MIn0AmWI/v-deo.html
Sal, hardest working man on UA-cam! Beautiful bath.
Thanks Sal .. nobody does what you do .. always a great vid and informative. You have a generous heart sharing sooo much of your professional experience
Very welcome
Wow great video!! I’m about to install this for the first time and this was very very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you. Maybe I’ll try that this summer in one of the 2 bathroom jobs I have coming. I SO appreciate you Sal!
Thanks for watching my video.
THE BEST instruction on Ditra heat video!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video Sal , thank you for sharing !! We appreciate it
My pleasure!
The current Ditra heat installation instructions say the heat wire cannot be in the same conduit with the sensor wires. Actually I just looked again…the 2016 version said they couldn’t be together … the 2020 version says they can. 🤷🏻♀️
Thanks!
Good video Sal. But, you don't give an explanation as to why you put in that little 1" bump-out in the wire run if it's longer than 10'. What's the reason for that ? Thanks for the video.
Avoid over stressing the wire on long runs.
Fantastic video!!! what setting on the multimeter to test resistance? what setting to use for the continuity? Thanks!!!
10:16 what is the purpose of that if it's longer then 10 feet?
3 3 is the recommended distance between the wires
Look again. There have been updates for quite some time.
