Hot fluid-applied waterproofing is rubberized asphalt that is applied hot and cools in place to form a monolithic membrane free of seams. Considered a tried and true standard in the waterproofing industry, hot fluid-applied waterproofing systems provide proven and long-term protection.

With hot fluid-applied waterproofing, the material must be heated before application, so be sure to refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for the correct temperature before application.

Once applied, the fluid-applied waterproofing bonds with the substrate. The heated liquid flows and naturally fills any imperfections to provide a perfect seal. By using a sprayer or roller to apply the material, the job is done faster, saving you time and, by extension, labor costs.

EPRO’s HotDeck hot fluid-applied waterproofing system is a multi-layer system that provides superior protection. Learn more about this monolithic, seamless membrane below.

HotDeck

HotDeck is a waterproofing protection system that features a 215-mil reinforced layer of HD.membrane, a hot fluid-applied rubberized asphalt with reinforcement. The system cures to form a seamless, fully bonded, thick, tough, yet highly flexible waterproofing membrane. Ideal for split-slab deck applications, as well as pedestal paver decks and vegetative decks, the HotDeck system is comprised of:

• 1st Layer: EPRO HD.membrane 90 mil
• 2nd Layer: EPRO HD.skrim reinforcement
• 3rd Layer: EPRO HD.membrane 125 mil
• 4th Layer: EPRO HD.cap1 or HD.cap2 — a premium polymer modified fiberglass protection sheet
• EPRO e.drain 6000 — a lightweight three-dimensional, high-compressive strength polypropylene core and bonded non-woven geotextile fabric

Together, components of HotDeck protect the rubberized HD.membrane from physical damage through the construction process, UV and beyond, as well as provide redundant layers of long-term waterproofing protection.

HD.membrane is the key component to EPRO’s redundant field-installed HotDeck rubber asphaltic membrane waterproofing system for insulated and uninsulated split-slab, pedestal paver and vegetative deck applications. HD.membrane is a rubberized asphalt compound that is melted in a kettle then hot-applied in two layers to a nominal cured thickness of 215 mil. HD.membrane consists of a specially selected blend of refined asphalts, synthetic rubber and mineral stabilizers. Additives are incorporated to promote adhesion and improve low-temperature flexibility.

EPRO HD.skrim, a polyester reinforcing fabric, is embedded between the two layers of HD.membrane for added strength. HD.membrane rapidly cures to form a seamless, thick, tough, yet flexible waterproofing membrane and creates a powerful bond to concrete substrates. The monolithic HD.membrane is fully protected from physical damage with additional components comprising the EPRO HotDeck waterproofing system.

HotDeck benefits include:

• Seamless application for monolithic waterproofing.
• Proven protection of split-slab above-grade waterproofing.
• Full adhesive to deck, restricting lateral water movement.
• 100% solids provide immediate cure on cooling.
• Compatible with a wide range of overlays, including pedestal and pavers, insulation and green roofs.
