As the weather began to warm up, many homeowners started prioritizing home renovation projects, leading to a small surge in activity in the Harbin home decoration market. During recent visits to areas like Shanghai Street and Haicheng Street—known for their concentration of building material stores—reporters observed that while many consumers are focused on price and design when choosing ceramic tiles, they often overlook an important factor: water absorption rate.
According to a well-known tile store, tiles with low water absorption offer better internal stability and are ideal for high-moisture areas such as kitchens and bathrooms. If the water absorption rate is too high, the tiles may expand over time, potentially causing wall tiles to crack or fall off, and floor tiles to become hollow or loose.
Some homeowners also confuse floor tiles with wall tiles during their renovation process. While floor tiles generally have a lower water absorption rate due to their different usage, the product labels typically indicate whether the tile is suitable for walls or floors. However, improper installation can still lead to problems if the wrong type is used in the wrong area.
To check the water absorption rate, experts from the Harbin Housing Bureau recommend a simple test: pour water on the back of the tile. If the water is absorbed slowly or not at all, it’s a sign of good quality and low water absorption. If the water spreads quickly, the tile may not be suitable for high-moisture environments.
Experts emphasize that the most critical aspect of ceramic tiles is their overall quality. In addition to checking the water absorption rate, you can lift the tile and tap it gently with your index finger. A crisp, clear "ping" sound indicates high density and good quality, while a dull or muffled sound suggests that the tile may not have been properly fired during manufacturing. Always take the time to inspect the tiles carefully before making a purchase.
