Litoproof Plus MEMBRANE IN ROLLS FOR UNDER-TILE WATERPROOFING. FOR INTERIORS. Litoproof Plus is a waterproofing membrane in rolls consisting in two outer layers of non-woven polypropylene heatsealed to one inner layer of polyethylene, which guarantees the total waterproofing of surfaces. ADVANTAGES / FEATURES • Suitable for overlaying on existing flooring • Easy and quick to install. The centimeter (inch) markings along the edges allow the rolls to be perfectly aligned • Guarantees utmost reliability of waterproofing by means of its consistent thickness 10 and 30 m2 (10.9 and 32.8yd) rolls (roll width = 1 m (1.09yd)) Intended uses Interiors Floors and walls Underfloor heating Indoor wet areas (bathrooms, shower enclosures) Overlaying SPAS and Saunas Residential, public, commercial building Industrial flooring WATERPROOFING PLANNING The only way to guarantee the long-lasting performance of ceramic and porcelain tile installations is to properly plan the process. It is therefore advisable to consult the national regulations in force in each country, for example standard UNI 11493 in Italy, which provides all necessary instructions regarding the choice of materials, correct planning, use and installation, so as to ensure all quality, performance and durability standards are safely met. When installing large tiles or low thickness laminated porcelain stoneware slabs, we recommend paragraphs 7.13.8 and 7.13.9 of regulation UNI 11493 be carefully read. Moreover, certain producers of thin slabs provide installation manuals indicating the adhesive classes that need to be used depending on the size, characteristics and intended use of the slabs. Some of the general precautions that need to be followed are listed below as an example. Substrates Before installation, check that substrates are clean, free of loose fragments, properly dried and cured, flat and level, and that mechanical strength requirements based on the intended use have been met. Before application, use a hygrometer to check that the residual humidity in the substrate is maximum 3% CM; on anhydrite screeds maximum 0.5% CM; on anhydrite screeds with heating systems maximum 0.2% CM. (CM = measurement with carbide method hygrometer). Worksite conditions Check the suitability of the temperature, humidity, light conditions etc. at the time of the product’s application. Waterproofing systems Suitable substrates: Cement screeds Self-levelers Cement levelers Existing tiles Existing agglomerates Underfloor heating systems Concrete Gypsum Fiber cement slabs Gypsum-based plasters Aerated concrete Cement plasters Marine-grade plywood panels Wood panels, type CTBH

In the case of particularly warm climates (T>95°F) (T>35°C), perform installation in the early hours of the morning. Materials Check that all materials used for tiling (ceramic materials, leveling systems, adhesives, grouts, waterproofing products, etc.) are suitable for the intended use and have been correctly stored. Expansion joints Check that the perimeter, expansion, divider and structural elastic joints have been correctly designed and prepared. Divider joints are normally needed for 20/25 m2 (21.9/27.3yd2) indoor sections. Expansion joints must be waterproofed by inserting the Litoband...

pressure with a smooth round-edged steel trowel to avoid the formation of air bubbles or folds. Similarly, install the previously cut-to-size Litoband SK Tape sealing tape over the fresh layer of Litoband Koll on all junctions between sheets and all wall-to-wall and wall-to-floor corners, overlapping it by a few centimeters (inches) over the Litoband SK for IC and EC corners. After applying the Litoband Koll adhesive, lay the Litoband SK band and apply firm pressure with a smooth roundedged steel trowel to avoid the formation of air bubbles or folds. Alternatively: Apply the Litosil MS adhesive...

fresh layer of Hidroflex. Floor drains must be sealed with the Litoband SK Self-Adhesive Drains Collar sheet in self-adhesive butyl, made to adhere directly to the substrate after creating a hole in the middle with the same diameter as the drain, using a cutter. The self-adhesive butyl sheet must be folded over inside the drain. Apply firm pressure to avoid the formation of air bubbles and folds. Apply a layer of Hidroflex liquid membrane with a brush or roller on the corners, pipework, drains and junctions between the sheets so that all Litoband SK accessories are embedded. The Hidroflex liquid...
