PRODUCT TITLE Fujiwa PEB Series – Deep Sea 1" x 1" Porcelain Pool & Spa Tile

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Dive into the rich, aquatic tones of the Fujiwa Deep Sea 1x1 Pool Tile. Part of the renowned PEB (Pebble) Series, this premium porcelain tile is specifically engineered for submerged environments. The "Deep Sea" colorway features a captivating blend of dark indigos, cobalt blues, and subtle organic textures that mimic the shifting depths of the ocean.

Designed to create a shimmering effect when hit by sunlight, these 1" x 1" mosaics are the gold standard for waterline borders, spas, and full-pool linings. Crafted from dense, high-fired porcelain, the PEB series offers a unique "pebble-like" surface texture that adds depth and character compared to standard flat tiles, while remaining smooth and comfortable for swimmers.

KEY FEATURES

• Superior Chemical Resistance: Specifically formulated to withstand constant exposure to chlorine, salt water, and balanced pool chemicals.

• Low Water Absorption: High-fired porcelain ensures the tile will not crack, fade, or peel in submerged or freeze-thaw conditions.

• Organic Texture: The PEB Series features a soft, textured surface that breaks up light, creating a sparkling, multi-dimensional look under the water.

• Mesh-Mounted for Curves: 12" x 12" sheets are flexible, making them perfect for wrapping around curved pool steps, benches, and spillways.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will the color fade over time in the sun? No. Fujiwa pool tiles are manufactured with UV-resistant glazes. The "Deep Sea" blue is fired at extremely high temperatures to ensure the pigment remains vibrant for the life of the pool.

Is this tile safe for the "step-markers" and benches? Yes. The 1x1 format provides a high density of grout lines, which offers excellent natural slip resistance. Additionally, the PEB series' unique texture provides a better grip than traditional glass or smooth ceramic tiles.

What grout should I use for a pool? We highly recommend using a waterproof epoxy grout or a high-performance cementitious grout designed specifically for submerged applications. This ensures the longevity of the installation and prevents algae growth in the joints.

How many sheets do I need for my waterline? Typically, you will need 6 inches of tile for a standard pool waterline. Since these are 12" x 12" sheets, one sheet usually covers 2 linear feet of waterline. We recommend adding 10% for cuts and corners.

INSTALLATION & CARE TIPS

• Surface Prep: Ensure the pool shell is properly waterproofed and cured before applying tile.

• Cleaning Waterline Scale: To remove calcium buildup (the white line that can form at the water level), use a specialized pool tile cleaner. Avoid using pumice stones on the PEB series to protect the specialized glaze.

• Frost Proofing: These tiles are rated for all climates; however, ensure your pool is properly winterized in cold regions to prevent ice expansion from damaging the tile bond.
