Q: What subfloors can I install DITRA over?
A: Concrete, plywood/OSB, gypsum, existing vinyl floors, structural planks, and radiant-heated floors, per Schluter guidelines.

Q: How thick is DITRA and will it change floor height?
A: DITRA is 1/8 in. (3.5 mm) thick, helping minimize height transitions compared to other underlayments.
Q: Can I use DITRA with large-format or stone tile?
