When can I tile over Kerdi?
Once the KERDI membrane, including seams, corners and protrusions have been completely bonded and, therefore, waterproofed, the assembly is ready to be tiled. No wait time is required. A water test may be performed before setting tile to verify a successful waterproofing installation.Click to see full answer. Likewise, people ask, how long should Kerdi dry…
Once the KERDI membrane, including seams, corners and protrusions have been completely bonded and, therefore, waterproofed, the assembly is ready to be tiled. No wait time is required. A water test may be performed before setting tile to verify a successful waterproofing installation.Click to see full answer. Likewise, people ask, how long should Kerdi dry before tiling?Wait 24 hours after the membrane (i.e., Schluter®-KERDI-BAND and Schluter®-KERDI) installation is complete to allow for the final set of the mortar and to ensure waterproof performance of the assembly at seams and connections before water testing.Also, how soon can you tile after waterproofing? 24 hours Beside this, can you tile over Kerdi membrane? Unmodified thin-set mortar is recommended to set ceramic and stone tile, including large format tiles, over the KERDI membrane. Since KERDI is impervious, it does not deprive the mortar of its moisture.Should I use modified or unmodified thinset?It’s important to note that latex-modified thinset can still be used between the membrane and the subfloor because it is not impervious. However, unmodified thinset should be used between the membrane and the tile.
