Troubleshooting

Tiles appear uneven after installation

This may be due to an uneven subfloor or improper leveling during installation. Ensure the subfloor is perfectly flat and use leveling systems if necessary during the tiling process.

Underfloor heating not performing as expected

Verify that the correct substrate preparation, flexible adhesive, and grout were used during installation. Consult the UFH system manufacturer's guidelines and a professional installer.

Surface scratches or chips

While durable, porcelain can chip if heavy objects are dropped on it. Avoid dragging heavy furniture; use protective pads. For minor scratches, a porcelain repair kit might offer a cosmetic fix.

Grout discoloration

Ensure the correct grout was used and that it was properly sealed if required. Clean with a recommended grout cleaner. For persistent issues, consider regrouting with a stain-resistant product.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: These tiles are designed for both floor and wall applications. For standard installations, use a suitable tile adhesive and grout. When installing with underfloor heating (UFH), ensure the substrate is properly prepared according to UFH manufacturer guidelines. Use a flexible cement-based adhesive and grout for optimal performance and to accommodate thermal expansion.

Compatibility: The tiles are compatible with standard UFH systems when installed correctly. They are suitable for use in bathrooms, showers, kitchens, and living spaces.

Care: Clean regularly with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with water and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the matt finish. For stubborn marks, a specialized porcelain tile cleaner can be used. Ensure spills are wiped up promptly, especially in wet areas.
