View Full Version : tile over gypcrete

I am in the process of installing radiant
tubing over my subfloor. A 1-1/2 inch layer
of gypcrete will be poured onto the floor,
then tile will be laid for the finished
floor. Can I tile directly to the gypcrete,
or do I need to install a membrane/sealer/etc
on top of the gypcrete?

Go strait of the surface as is. just use the acrylic substitute instead of water.
