10 x Tile Backer Boards per pack - 7.2 metres per pack of 10.
Tile Backer Boards are ideal for use with underfloor heating and designed to be tiled directly over. These boards have a waterproof insulated core. This makes them ideal for creating a insulated wet room as the boards can be installed over walls and floors. When used with under floor heating the boards greatly increase the efficiency of the underfloor heating and make sure the heat is sent up into the floor and not lost down into the sub floor.
Tile Backer Boards are ideal for two reasons; an excellent waterproofing surface to fix either wall or floor tiles and as excellent heat insulation for underfloor heating systems.
When installing on concrete subfloors we recommend using flexible tile adhesive, when installing onto wooden floors we recommend using tile adhesive and or backer boards washers.
