FAQs
What materials are the tiles and hearth made from?
The set features a concrete effect finish, designed to replicate the look of concrete. The exact core material is typically a durable composite suitable for hearth applications.
Can this set be used with a real wood-burning stove?
This set is specifically designed for use with electric or bio ethanol stoves. It is not recommended for use with real wood-burning stoves, which require specialized heat-resistant materials.
How many pieces are included in the set?
The set includes three tiles and one hearth piece, totaling four components.
Do I need to seal the concrete effect finish?
While the concrete effect is durable, sealing is generally not required for standard use with electric or bio ethanol stoves. However, consult specific product documentation or manufacturer advice if you anticipate heavy staining or extreme conditions.
How should I clean the hearth?
Wipe the hearth with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
What are the dimensions of the tiles and hearth?
Specific dimensions are usually available in the product's detailed specification sheet or on the retailer's website. Please refer to those for precise measurements.
Troubleshooting
Uneven placement of tiles
Ensure the floor surface is level. Adjust the position of the hearth and tiles carefully until they sit flat and stable.
Scuff marks on the surface
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Dry thoroughly. For persistent marks, consult the manufacturer's specific care recommendations.
Stove not sitting flush with tiles
Verify that the hearth and tiles are correctly positioned according to your stove's installation guide. Ensure no debris is obstructing placement.
