Tiling preparation and assembly
IMPORTANT STEPS PRIOR TO TILING
• Mark the centre line.
• Check that the floor is level.
• Check the body surface. Is it vertical? Be aware that
you must compensate for any irregularities.
• All tiles shall be in level vertically and horizontally.
• Adhesive shall be applied on
both tiles and body
with an 8 mm toothed trowel.
• A joint width of approx. 3mm is recommended.
The tiles are handmade with tolerance and joints
could vary accordingly. The overall appearance is
important. We recommend wooden wedges.
• Start tiling from the bottom and the centre and work
towards the sides.
• Seal with adhesive between tiles and body at the
firebox and the soot holes.
• The granite shelf shall be set in
mortar.
• Do not block the hole/grate for inlet air for convection
heat.
• Glue or attach the decor lists with silicone. Use
clamps for the top list and a strap for the bottom list.
• The tiles are hand-made - there might be some
variations in measurements and colours.
