around a wood burning stove - TilersForums.com

Hello boys n girls, been working up in the borders all week, big job, nice surroundings. Anyway, let me pick your brains.
I'm now onto the kitchen and they have decided they wanted to put a wood burning stove 'in' the old fireplace and tile around it, ceramics.
I have no idea how much heat these things chuck off and what I may need to use.
Anybody?

Standard gear mate.

Ceramic tiles are fired at 1200 degrees when made, so no stove is going to be chucking out anywhere near that heat, so there is no problem.

What about sticky though? I'm aware the tiles will be fine mate. prep, firecem? heatrec? and grout?, I've since found out that these things lay out a constant heat even when not in use and when in use, quite some.
