The Warmup DCM-PRO Cable utilizes unique decoupling technology to provide excellent protection for tiled floors. This customizable underfloor heating (UFH) solution offers two membrane options to choose from: Peel-and-Stick or Fleece-Backed, as well as a range of heating cables for standard and low-wattage projects. Experience the benefits of easy installation, flexible heat output, and floor protection with the DCM-PRO Cable.
Key Benefits- Easy Installation: Fits into the Peel-and-Stick DCM membrane features a self-adhesive underside, eliminating the need for an adhesive layer and significantly reducing installation time. The Fleece-Backed membrane is ideal for use with traditional adhesives.
- Flexible Heat Output: Choose from two heating cables to specify the system for standard wattage projects ranging from 112.5 W/m² to 225 W/m² and low wattage projects ranging from 41.3 W/m² to 82.5 W/m². This flexibility allows you to tailor the heat output to suit your project's requirements.
- Protects Floors: The innovative decoupling membrane absorbs lateral subfloor movements, preventing these stresses from reaching the tiled floor finish and causing cracks.
The DCM-PRO Heated Decoupling System is a technologically advanced electric underfloor heating system from Warmup. It has been proven to protect tiled floors from cracking, as tested by ANSI 118.12:5.4 (American National Standards Institute).
Decoupling MembraneThe DCM-PRO's decoupling membrane is available with either a self-adhesive or fleece backing, providing adaptability and hassle-free installation.
Anti-Fracture ProtectionThe DCM-PRO system suits all floor types but is specifically developed to protect stone and tiled floor finishes from damage caused by seasonal temperature changes that affect the sub-floor. The anti-fracture membrane of DCM-PRO is particularly beneficial for tiles prone to cracking, making it an ideal choice for floor tiles.
How Does the Decoupling System Work?- The decoupling layer of the DCM-PRO membrane contracts and expands to handle lateral movements in subfloors.
- The self-adhesive layer or fleece backing stretches with expansion.
- The decoupling layer contracts if the gap shrinks due to seasonal changes.
- The system protects the floor surface from damage caused by lateral subfloor movement.
The DCM-PRO System offers a flexible heat output through the choice of two heating cables, allowing for a personalized heated area layout.
- 112.5 W/m² to 225 W/m² Output for Standard Wattage Projects: The DCM-PRO with the Blue Cable provides an output of between 112.5 W/m² and 225 W/m², suitable for standard wattage projects based on your project's requirements.
- 41.3 W/m² to 82.5 W/m² Output for Homes with Low Load Supplies: The DCM-PRO Low Wattage System features a flexible output of 41.3 W/m² to 82.5 W/m², making it ideal for homes with low load supplies and minimal heat loss. This system enables solar arrays with battery storage to supply a higher percentage of the load, contributing to a more sustainable, zero-carbon heating solution.
The updated castellation design of the DCM-PRO offers quick and hassle-free installation for Warmup Underfloor Heating. The dimensions of the membrane are designed for convenient sizing, ensuring that 2m² of heating cable fits precisely on 2m² of the membrane. The cable spacing can be adjusted to increase or decrease coverage and power. No tools are required for installation; simply position the heating cable by hand within the castellations of the membrane.
The DCM-PRO can be tiled directly onto or covered with a layer of self-leveling compound when used with other floor finishes certified for underfloor heating. This system comes with Warmup's market-leading warranty, guaranteeing exceptional performance and reliability.
