Q. Does it get hot?
A. The tiles do retain heat, however, the surface design allows for airflow movement, which in turn cools the tile.
Q. How is it to remove snow?
A. By using a plastic or aluminum shovel, snow removal is comparable to any other surface. These
tiles do not require salt for ice removal, as the rubber will attract
and absorb sunlight, thus allowing snow to melt quicker.
Q. Will the tiles crack due to changes in climate?
A. The tiles are manufactured from rubber, thus are flexible, and can
withstand climate changes, and volatile weather patterns, ie. frost, heat,
etc.
Q. Will the tiles fade?
A. The tiles are manufactured
using UV stable ingredients, therefore minimal fading will occur over
extended periods of time.
Q. How do you cut the tiles?
A. Tiles are simply cut
using blade knives, table saws, jigsaws, and other simple carpentry tools.
No specialized equipment is required.
Q. What is the lifespan of a tile?
A. Due to accelerated testing wear, it is estimated the tiles will last in excess of 20+ years, dependant on volume of traffic.
Q. Can the tiles be used around a fire pit?
A. Yes, the tiles are an excellent application around fire pits. The compression of the tile allows the tile to be fire retardant. It is recommend that 18 inches of loose or crushed rock
be in between the fire pit, and the tile, to dissipate extreme heat.
Q. Do pool or hot tub chemicals harm the tile?
A. No. The tile is inert to ordinary pool or hot tub chemicals. Extensive testing has proven no
adverse effects on the tiles. Please contact local Dealer or our Customer Service Department
to verify unusual cleaning applications.
Q. What type of warranty comes with a tile?
A. 100,000 kilometres, or 60,000 miles.
