Avaire Porcelain Tile Care & Maintenance

With proper care and maintenance, your Avaire® tile floor is made to be highly durable and long-lasting.

AFTER INSTALLATION

After installation you may resume light traffic on the floor after 24 hours. Normal traffic can resume after 72 hours.

REGULAR CLEANING

• Avoid using cleaning chemicals on your floor for one week after installation.
• DO NOT USE commercial enzyme-based cleaners, vinegar or steam mops.
• Regular sweeping or vacuuming and damp mopping is recommended to keep your floor looking its best.
• For commercial cleaning, do not use slop-mopping.

For deep cleaning, or to address messy or sticky spills, use a detergent cleaner designed for porcelain. Avoid cleaning products that contain was or paraffin.

GROUT CARE

Avaire Flexible Grout is self-sealing but will still require periodic cleaning; especially in high-traffic areas. A cleaner such as SoftScrub® with Bleach and a soft-bristled brush should remove any accumulated dirt. Cleaning your grout lines monthly or quarterly will make it easier to maintain.
