Schlüter®-BEKOTEC is a modular screed system for crack free and functionally safe floating screeds and heated screeds with coverings made of ceramic tiles, natural stone or other materials.
The system is based on the studded polystyrene screed panel, Schlüter®- BEKOTEC-EN, which is directly installed on top of load bearing substrates or conventional heat insulation and/or sound insulation panels. The geometry of the Schlüter®-BEKOTEC-EN studded panel results in a minimum screed thickness of 32 mm between the studs and 8 mm above the studs. The studs form a grid pattern with a distance of 75 mm between them to accept the 16 mm diameter heating pipes if a heated screed is to be installed. The floor heating system is easily adjustable and ideally suited for use with low temperatures, since the screed volume to be heated or cooled is relatively small (approx. 57 kg/m2 or 28.5 l/m2 with 8 mm coverage).
