Installation notes

  1. 1Substrate: smooth, level concrete (± 3mm in 3m), grind high spots, fill low spots with epoxy mortar
  2. 2Use only acid-resistant tile adhesive mortar (furan-based for strong acids, potassium silicate for milder duty)
  3. 3Lay tiles with minimum 3mm joint width, do not butt joint
  4. 4Grout all joints with acid-resistant grout immediately after tile adhesive has set (24–48 hrs)
  5. 5Seal around drains and wall junctions with acid-resistant flexible sealant
  6. 6Cure for 5–7 days before any chemical exposure
  7. 7Test: cover with dilute acid solution for 24 hours before commissioning
