Fully Bonded 20mm, mechanical contact with substrate/unbonded 30mm. Over insulation/acoustic matting 35mm domestic and 40mm commercial. Covering over top of the pipes with Cemfloor screed 25mm above the pipe.
Our standard solution, requires a minimum of 25mm (by British Standard).
The screed can be walked on 24 to 48 hours after the installation, dependant on site conditions.
No. All floor coverings can be applied with no need for surface sanding.
Reduced drying times 10 days for tiling and 28 days for wooden floors in non heated floors, In heated floors 14 days for tiling and 21 days for wooden floors. This is dependent on drying conditions or 'after suitable moisture test'.
Yes if installing impermeable surface finishes, such as tiles. All pipes should be pressure tested before installing screed and fully commissioned prior to tiling.
No there is no requirement to prime the screed as it is compatible with all types of adhesive however we would recommend as an aid to reduce suction.
Yes. Cemfloor screed is specifically designed to compliment these systems by running at lower water temperatures. A good heating system will ensure the property runs effectively and is environmentally efficient.

Gyvlon® Screed (trademark) is the trade name for the screed range of ANHYDRITEC®. Gyvlon® Screed has been established and recognised in the UK for over 25 years.
Fully Bonded 25mm, mechanical contact with substrate/unbonded 30mm. Over insulation/acoustic matting 35mm domestic and 40mm commercial. Covering over top of the pipes with Gyvlon® Screed Thermio®+
Our standard solution, ECO®, requires a minimum of 25mm (by British Standard). BBA Approved Thermio®+ Technology can be installed with just 20mm coverage.
The screed can be walked on 24 to 48 hours after the installation, dependant on site conditions.
Yes. As per British standard surface laitance should be removed after 7-10 days to help the screed dry out. If Low Laitance additive is used then sanding to create a mechanical key is all that is required prior to floor coverings being applied.
In good drying conditions 20deg 60%RH Anhydrite Screed products dry at the same rate as traditional sand and cement screed approx. 1mm/day up to 40mm of thickness. This increases for screeds thicker than 40mm and in poor drying conditions. When the screed is dry then you can tile. If underfloor heating is installed, it is recommended that the heating system is commissioned before installing surface finishes. It is important to have all the moisture out of the screed as the tiles may not bond with the adhesive.
Yes if installing impermeable surface finishes, such as tiles. All pipes should be pressure tested before installing screed.
Yes, if any adhesive is used for your selected choice of flooring, it is recommended to use an epoxy primer to create a barrier between any cement based adhesive and the gypsum based screed. Before this is applied it is vital that the floor is lightly sanded or scraped to key in the primer. We would recommend the use of Gypsum Tile Adhesives which are directly compatible and can be laid at 85% RH rather than 75% required for cement based adhesives.
