We study substructuring preconditioners for the linear system arising from the discretization of parabolic problems when the mortar method is applied. By using a suitable non standard norm equivalence we build an efficient edge block preconditioner and we prove a polylogarithmic bound for the condition number of the preconditioned matrix.
