1 Technical Data wedi Subliner Dry Waterproofing Shower and Wet Area System

2 Technical Data wedi Subliner Dry Waterproofing Shower and Wet Area System General Product Description Waterproof, thin-layer, crack isolating sealing mat made from highly tear-resistant polyethylene film, which offers optimum connection to tile laying materials thanks to its dual-sided special fleece lamination. The installation over preexisting wall surfaces is smooth and any thinset suitable for the tile or stone finish may be used on top of the wedi system. The wedi Subliner Dry System includes wedi sealing tape, prefabricated corner tape and plumbing fixture collars as well as bonding flange drains. wedi Subliner Dry provides a waterproof tileable surface over suitable preexisting wall and floors. Use Subliner Dry in combination with ceramic tiles, slabs, and natural cast tiles for indoor wall and floor areas. Application Areas Suitable for residential and commercial applications where waterproof substrate preparation using waterproofing according to ANSI A is required including but not limited to: Interior walls and floors Domestic interior bathrooms Hotel bathrooms Shower facilities Areas around interior swimming pools Commercial kitchens and laundries Steam rooms and refrigeration rooms Wood or concrete subfloors and walls/ceilings Areas requiring disabled access/barrier-free applications Product Features Waterproof Mold and mildew resistant Vapor retarder meeting TCNA steam room requirements Flexible and crack-bridging/isolating Highly tear resistant Alkali resistant Non-aging and non-decomposable Short installation time Can be used with any thinset suitable for substrate and/or finish Easy processing in system approach Low structural height/ build up and low weight on structures Can be used with hot water radiant floor heating systems Low consumption of thinset mortar ICC approved as topical waterproofing in shower applocations Can be used with a variety of bonding flange shower drains, including wedi Subliner Dry Bonding Flange Drains

Allow the sloped mortar bed shower floor to cure sufficiently 2 Install the wedi subliner dry sheet waterproofing membrane over all non waterproof surfaces including mortar bed shower floor and curb as well as drywall or cement backer units on walls. Make sure drywall is properly primed to bond to thinset mortar. Start by installing wedi prefabricated Subliner Dry inside and outside corners at the shower base perimeter and curb. A 1/8 x 1/8 trowel is used to spread modified thinset mortar on the area to receive the corner pieces. The corner pieces are inserted into the thinset mortar and compressed using a flat trowel. After all inside and outside corners are completed wedi Subliner Dry waterproof sealing tape is installed over all vertical and horizontal areas where planes change ( wall corners/ floor/curb transition). The wedi sealing tapes are installed in the same way the corner pieces are installed. The sealing tape strips overlap 2 on all corner tape pieces in a thinset mortar bond. Crease the center of the tape with your fingers to help the tape settle into the corners. 3 Cut and layout full sheets of Subliner Dry waterproofing membrane that will cover the largest areas of your walls and floor. Make sure to cut out for any protrusions or drain hole locations to make the installation easier and cleaner. Leave the shower floor and curb sheets as the last step to waterproof so you can keep walking over the floor base 5

A moist sponge is used to wet the cement board surface prior to thinset mortar installation. That way, the board will not consume excessive water amounts from your thinset mix. If working over drywall, the surface is primed first to prepare for safe thinset mortar attachment. It is important to apply only enough thinset mortar to bond wedi Subliner Dry in an area so the thinset mortar does not start to dry on its surface prematurely prohibiting bond. 5 Subliner Dry is laid over the freshly spread thinset mortar at the top section of the wall and worked into position by hand. More thinset mortar is spread on the lower portion of the wall and the tape from the upper portion of the Subliner Dry is removed. The folded part will fall over onto the bottom half of the wall and into freshly spread thinset mortar where it is to be pressed into the setting bed and positioned. 6 A flat trowel is used to gently work the wedi Subliner Dry sheet membrane flat working from the middle out. Not too much pressure is used as to avoid pushing all of the thinset mortar from behind the membrane but it is important to work out any air pockets or blobs of thinset mortar that may cause an issue with tile installation. Excess thinset mortar is cleaned off of the edge of the wedi Subliner Dry. 7 All wall areas are covered as described in step 6. Sheets are to overlap onto wedi sealing tape or Subliner Dry membrane sheets for 2 and connected using thinset mortar between two sheets. 8 The shower floor is now covered with wedi Subliner Dry. Pre-cut your wedi subliner Dry membrane and cut out for the drain so the Subliner Dry will cover the entire drain flange area. The wedi Subliner Sheet membrane should be cut long enough to cover the shower floor as well as the front face, top face and outer face of the curb if applicable. If the shower is barrier free, the Subliner Dry should be carried at least 6 or further out beyond the shower entrance as needed due to water exposure presence. Thinset mortar is spread over shower floor and curb as needed using a ¼ x ¼ notch trowel. A flat bed of wedi joint sealant ( 1/8 thick) is applied to cover the entire steel flange of the drain. Subliner Dry is inserted and pressed into thinset mortar whereby a safe drain connection to the wedi sealant on the drain flange is made first. Excess thinset mortar or air pockets are worked out using a flat trowel and towards the perimeter of the shower and not towards the drain. All Subliner Sheets must overlap at seam areas for a full 2 with thinset mortar in between such connections. After proper drying time of thinset mortar, all visible seams/ connections are finally covered with a ½ bead of wedi joint sealant spread flat using a putty knife. 9 Tilling may commence once the thinset below wedi Subliner Dry System has fully cured and according to thinset mortar manufacturer s recommendations. 6
