Abstract
An uncoupling mat includes a flexible layer made of a film-like plastic with structuring that defines indentations provided with undercuts on a first, top side and a series of annular cavities formed on an opposite second, bottom side. The annular cavities on the bottom side each define a recess on the first side. The indentations have a cross-section adapted to receive a heating cable therein such that the cable can be held in position by the indentations. A plurality of weakening zones each extends between two rows of annular cavities in a straight line to allow the plastic layer to move substantially transversely to the direction of extension of the weakening zones.
