Fast Trak™ Installation Guide

Fast Trak 1.3i
Fast Trak 1.3i (A5090500) is slightly over 1¼" in height and is designed
for
3
⁄8" or ½" Wirsbo hePEX tubing. Fast Trak 1.3i includes ½" insulation
already in the panel, eliminating the added time and cost of installing
insulation under the tubing. The panels interlock to ensure proper
alignment for tubing installation. With a minimum of ¾" overpour, the total
building height of the system is only about 2". This design gives a thermal
break from the slab or subfloor and still has a manageable impact on the
ceiling height, making for fast and easy installations in basement and
garage applications.

Edge Strips
Edge Strips (A5091000) serve an important function when installing Fast
Trak panels. The Edge Strips prevent the overpour from seeping under the
panels, protecting the surrounding structure from moisture damage and
expansion forces. The strips install between the load distribution layer and
the vertical building parts, covering the edge joint. The existing edge joint
must always include Uponor Edge Strips to the height of the leveling layer
and the new floor covering to be installed.
Important! Do not remove the protruding sections of the
Edge Strips until the floor covering is installed.
Movement Joints
Movement joints are joints in the overpour that separate the overpour
fields. Movement joints must be extended with a suitable joint profile to
the height of the leveling layer and new floor covering to be installed.
Consult your structural engineer as to the placement and makeup of the
construction, expansion and control joints.
