Once the mats have been fitted to the area in which they are being installed, they are secured to the
floor by setting the mesh portion of the mats into a thin layer of mortar (base layer) applied directly to
the floor. The mats are then covered with a uniform scratch coat so that it just covers them. For ease
of tiling, the scratch coat is applied evenly over the entire floor area. When the scratch coat is dry, the
tiles can be set in the usual manner. This method will increase in a floor height increase of about 5/16
