Hi. I use ultra adhesive,and they state you shouldn’t use calcium based adhesive to stick matting. Prime twice use an s2 adhesive for floor.(no matting req) For better results you can have the ufh switched on,but keep it at its lowest temperature,sub 15 degrees also your not supposed to use a fully flexible adhesive on matting! Prime walls. Ultra standard set white

Do not do any of this!

Like I said, use ultra slow, if you're a beginner, this clown seems to think ultra standard is better, but it's not, not for a beginner!
Also, do you want your floor tiles to only stick to an anhydrate screed, or to not leech the ***** through the grout joints? Which after a couple of months they will! 😂, then you'll have white grout lines, loose tiles and headaches! ****** Coventry mongs man! 😂 Wow

Underfloor Heating (UFH): If UFH is being installed it must be fully commissioned before starting the tiling process to ensure it is in full working order. This includes both electric mat and water pipe systems. Once the UFH has been commissioned it can be set to a low level to provide a max floor temperature of 15 ̊C whilst the tiling and grouting processes are undertaken. It is critical that this temperature is not exceeded as this can force dry the adhesive and grout with the potential of causing cracks in the installation or tiles to de-bond. Maintain this temperature for a minimum period of 7 days while the installation cures and hardens. After this time the UFH can be brought up to the required room temperature slowly at a rate of 5 ̊C per day.
From the technical data sheet ultra tile fix. Standard set is slow set! Calcium based adhesive is for use without matting. Your still walking on cobbles you northern gimp!

Sorry. Calcium based adhesive is not for use WITH matting.

Ultra standard set ISN'T!
Ultra slow, is slow,
Ultra standard is standard, and yes, it lasts ages in the bucket, but doesn't allow any where near as much time for adjustment that a beginner may require!
You do know that there is a difference between slow, and standard? No?

Just call bal, schluter, or whatever mat you're using,
Ultra is fine!
And yes, they will still stick to the floor, however, will not give any crack resistance or resilience from laitence leeching up through the screed as a mat will!
Cheers for your help though Tony👍🏻
But your advice has been completely wrong and unrequired in this scenario, so see you later son, I'm off to wash my hair
Kind regards

1.laitence is the term used to the mineral that sits on top of the screed that should of been sanded anyway anything LEECHING THROUGH after that is called a leak mate.
2 do you think calcium based adhesive was produced just to stick
Matting. No it’s to stick the tiles directly to the floor.
3 crack resistance is related to the tile. you would use it for natural stone ie marble/limestone. If your worried about the screed cracking why don’t they put an expansion joint in the screed. Weak points are doorways cut tile in rebate and silicone joint it
4 you must think rapid set goes off quicker than fast set.😂😂

Standard and slow are the same.
