To know advantages of TAS usage we inform you about possible errors and difficulties while tiling

The most difficult point in ceramic and large format ceramic granit (900 X 300, 750 X 250, 500 X 300, 600 X 600, 450 X 450 mm etc.) tiles is aligning of joints (seams) in the plane during installation. Tilers use levels as a rule, but the main method is a "Touch" method. Further, some professionals leveled the surface carefully to use the minimum adhesive layer to minimise the risk of "Drawdown" while glue dries. Avoid glue thickness not to breake the glue instruction. Which leads to poor adhesion, void and cavities formation. Manufacturers strongly recommend to use at least 4 - 5 mm thickness of adhesive layer for large format tiles as the adhesive composition is a damping element so it releases tension between the base and tiles.

While installing so-called "Thin" electric underfloor heating, heating mats are installed in the adhesive layer under the tiles. The thickness of the adhesive layer with no heating elements places comes to 6 - 10 mm and it is impossible to avoid the adhesive (tiles) "Drawdown". To avoid it electric mats are filled in minimal adhesive layer, but in this case the heating mats become not effective - the heating time increases and heating cost grow up.
