Delivery service is free of charge for urban areas.  For other provinces, delivery fee will be applied. Please contact your nearest showroom for additional delivery charge that may apply. Due to the heavy nature of our tile and bathroom products we strongly recommend that these are delivered and stored in a dry external location. Due to the breakable nature of our products, it is important to reduce any unnecessary handling.

There is a general rule - Every floor tile is a wall tile, but no wall tiles are floor tiles. The difference between a wall and a floor tile is the durability they are designed to withstand. A floor tile is designed to withstand both (1) the wear and tear of shoes and footwear constantly making contact with the surface and (2) the weight of people, furniture and other heavy objects. A floor tile simply means it is suitable to use on the floor however any tile will be perfectly fine on the wall*.

*The suitability of a floor tile on a wall may depend on the substrate. As some floor tiles are considerably heavy, you must ensure that your wall substrate can handle the excess weights.

Tiling can be a tricky process, but it is definitely something you can undertake yourself. Check out our How to DIY section of our website – it’s full of tips and guide for tiling!

Ceramic and Porcelain tiles designed for wet areas should be tested by one of either a (i) Wet Pendulum or (ii) Oil-Wet Ramp test with the R rating referring to the result of the Oil Wet Ramp test. The R rating of a tile refers to its level of slip resistance in a wet area with R ratings ranging from R9 to R14 where the higher the rating equals a greater level of slip resistance. Any tile exhibiting an R rating of R9 or above is typically suitable for a wet area however some commercial applications will higher R rating and this should be considered before purchasing a product for a wet area. Always keep in mind that although a tile may offer slip resistance, ceramic and porcelain tiles may still be slippery in wet areas and precautions should always be taken to ensure the risk of slipping is minimized.

Yes. It's recommended to order 10% - 15% extra based upon pattern layout to accommodate for cuts and future repairs. Availability and style of tiles are always changing so having an extra box or two on hand is highly recommended.

Depending on the product being installed and the installation area, each project is unique and may require different tools to complete the job. In general, you will need level, googles, sponge, wet saw, trowel... If you have questions, please visit your local showroom or contact our Customer Service Representatives at (84-8) 38422768.

Yes, Vietceramics offer multiple tile installation education tools, including:
• One-on-one installation guidance from our quality control associates (appointment necessary).
• Various resources such as "how-to" articles, problem solving tools, and planning and installation tips and guides in the Customer Service section of our website www.vietceramics.com.vn.
• Free in-showroom educational "How to Tile" workshops, available upon request at your nearest showroom.

Each tile project is unique and will depend on a few different things: the product being used, the space where the product is being installed, and how much time was spent on prep & layout. Vietceramics offers assistance through installation guide, and free DIY seminars in each of our showrooms.

There are multiple considerations when determining your grout joint. These include, but are not limited to appearance, maintenance, traffic, finish/edge and material. Vietceramics recommended the minimum grout line width of 3 – 5 mm joint in order to offset the even minimum manufacturing tolerances, avoidance of thermal or moisture movement and better waterproofing.

Grout is as much a personal option as selecting your tile. Vietceramics can make suggestions based on what's commonly used but we strongly suggest that you select the color that is right for you and your design objective. For more advice about your specific project visit your local showroom or contact our Customer Service team at (84-8) 38422768.

For optimum performance, a water pressure of between 1 – 5 bar is recommended for the majority of brassware in the range. Details of requirements for individual products can be found on the website, in the bathroom brochure and the Bathroom Technical Guide.

You will need to check the type of system that is installed - Is there a tank in the loft? If so, this means you have a gravity system, the height of this tank above the outlet will give a rough indication of the available pressure - the measurement should be taken from the base of the loft tank to the outlet (every meter distance is equal to 0.1 bar). If there is no tank in the property then the system is either using a mains pressure unvented system, or a combination boiler, in which case there is likely to be more than 1.0 bar pressure available. Your installer should be able to obtain a pressure reading using a suitable test gauge and offer advice.

In line with water regulations, the water capacity of the toilet cisterns are restricted to a maximum 6 litre flush.

A wall hung toilet pan will require a combined wall frame and cistern. Please speak to the showroom for further advice on the products available.

There are a number of choices of taps and wastes available. Suggested compatible products for each bath and basin are listed in the Bathroom Technical Guide.

A thermostatic shower will provide the following benefits to the user:

1. A steady temperature while showering, with no temperature fluctuations.

2. A maximum temperature, preventing any risk of possible scolding.

Please ensure all chrome plated brassware products are cleaned regularly using a clean, soft, damp cloth only. Abrasive cleaners or detergents must not be used as they may cause surface deterioration. For best results ensured the chrome is dried with a suitable soft dry cloth. IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE CORROSIVE CHEMICALS TO CLEAN CHROME.

The glazed finish of your sanitary ware should be cleaned by applying a small amount of a suitable cream cleaner. Apply using a sponge or damp cloth and rinse thoroughly with clean water. Cleaners containing abrasive ingredients or materials should be avoided.

The black marks can be caused by metal rubbing against the ceramic surface. The metal (generally stainless steel) is softer than the ceramic and is deposited onto the surface of the ceramic if it is rubbed against it. Generally Cif cream cleaner will remove the marks, alternatively a "bath rubber" can be purchased and used to rub away the mark.

Please see our website or alternatively email technical@firedearth.com for product dimensions, technical drawings and fitting instructions.

Traditionally taps used a washer to open and close the water flow, this required the control handle to be rotated through 360 degrees and several times to open or close the tap. A quarter turn tap uses a ceramic disc cartridge instead of a washer, this allows the tap to operate by simply turning the control handle through 90 degrees to control the flow of water.
