The mat can now be covered in one of two methods-
Concrete and wooden fl oors using fl exible tile adhesives
Working with a width of devimat at a time, apply
fl exible tile adhesive through the mat with a rubber
back trowel or similar so that the heating cable is
covered, making sure that there are no air pockets.
Another layer of adhesive can then be applied
carefully using a suitable notched trowel to comb
the adhesive before applying the tiles.
Concrete and wooden fl oors using self-levelling compounds
An alternative method is to cover the devimat with a suitable self levelling/
latex type compound. This product will fi nd its own level giving you a fl at
surface to then apply a layer of fl exible tile adhesive using a suitable notched
trowel to comb the adhesive before applying the tiles.
The mat should be tested-see page 7.
Flooring note:
Whichever fl oor covering is being used with the Devimat system, it must be
covered with a latex/adhesive covering before the fl oor fi nish is laid, the
suitability of which should be checked for use with underfl oor heating with the
manufacturer. If using Devimat beneath wood laminate fl ooring, you must only
use the thin foam type sound-deadening layer, this must not exceed 3mm.
