SKU DFL-3.6x30

DELTA®-FL is a heavy-duty, dimpled plastic membrane designed to protect concrete and slab-on-grade floors from moisture, making basements dry, comfortable, and livable. It acts as both a capillary break and vapor barrier, preventing moisture from migrating through the concrete and damaging flooring materials.

The unique dimpled structure creates an air gap that equalizes water vapor pressure above and below the slab, stopping moisture from entering the basement space. This not only keeps floors dry but also provides a thermal break, making the floor feel warmer and increasing overall comfort.

With DELTA®-FL, sensitive flooring materials remain protected, and your basement becomes a more functional, inviting living area. It’s an effective, long-term solution to moisture issues, ensuring a dry and comfortable space.

Roll Size: 3'6 x 30' (105 Sq Ft)

    Delta® FL – Dimpled Membrane for Slab-On-Grade Floors: An Overview

    A moisture-protecting underlayment designed to keep basement and slab-on-grade floors warm, dry, and comfortable.

    What is Delta® FL?

    Delta® FL is a dimpled membrane underlayment designed for use over concrete slabs, including basement and slab-on-grade floors. Made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), it creates a reliable moisture barrier and a thermal break between the cold, damp concrete and finished flooring materials.

    Available in a convenient 3’6” x 30’ roll, Delta® FL is engineered to make basements and concrete slab floors warmer, drier, and more comfortable—while helping protect finished flooring from moisture damage.

    How it works

    The unique dimpled profile of Delta® FL creates an air gap between the concrete and the finished flooring. This allows incidental moisture to move freely under the membrane and escape at the edges, instead of becoming trapped under flooring materials. The air gap also provides an insulating effect, reducing the cold feel of concrete floors.

    Key benefits

    • Moisture control: Stops ground moisture from seeping into finished floors.
    • Thermal break: Reduces heat loss through the slab, keeping floors warmer underfoot.
    • Durability: Made from tough HDPE that resists rot, mildew, and chemical degradation.
    • Comfort: Provides a smooth, solid base for finished flooring, improving comfort in living spaces.
    • Versatility: Compatible with laminate, engineered hardwood, carpet, and vinyl flooring.

    Applications

    Delta® FL is ideal for:

    • Basement finishing projects
    • Slab-on-grade residential floors
    • Concrete garage conversions
    • Recreation rooms, workshops, and home offices

    Installation overview

    1. Ensure the concrete slab is clean, level, and free of debris.
    2. Unroll Delta® FL membrane with the dimples facing down.
    3. Cut to fit around walls and obstructions.
    4. Tightly butt side seams and tape joints with manufacturer-approved tape.
    5. Install finished flooring (laminate, carpet, engineered hardwood, etc.) directly over the membrane.

    Case study: Basement renovation

    Project: A homeowner in a cold-climate region wanted to finish their 1,000 sq. ft. basement into a family recreation room. Concerns included dampness, mold risk, and uncomfortably cold floors.

    Solution: Delta® FL was installed across the entire basement slab. Finished laminate flooring was then laid directly over the membrane without additional sleepers or plywood.

    Outcome: The finished basement had noticeably warmer, drier floors. Moisture testing after one season showed no elevated humidity under the flooring. The homeowner reported significant comfort improvements and peace of mind knowing their investment was protected.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can Delta® FL be used under carpet?
    Yes. Delta® FL provides a stable, dry base for carpet and padding in basement and slab-on-grade applications.
    Do I need plywood over Delta® FL?
    No. Finished flooring such as laminate, engineered hardwood, or carpet can be installed directly over Delta® FL.
    How thick is the membrane?
    Delta® FL is approximately 5/16" (8 mm) thick, creating an effective air gap between the slab and flooring.
    Is it resistant to mold?
    Yes. Made from HDPE, Delta® FL does not support mold growth and helps prevent moisture from reaching organic flooring materials.
    What roll size is available?
    The product is sold in 3’6” x 30’ rolls, covering approximately 108 square feet per roll.
