FAQ
Q: Why should I consider the LASH Tile Leveling System?
A:
The LASH System offers multiple benets to the installer:
• Virtually eliminates lippage (uneven tile surface)
• Great for installing tiles of different thicknesses
• Very easy to learn and use at any skill level
• Speeds up installations
Q: What is LIPPAGE and is it really a problem?
A:
The Tile Council of North America (TCNA) states “Lippage is a condition where one edge of a tile is higher than an adjacent tile,
giving the nished surface an uneven appearance.” Lippage can in fact be a real problem. Not only does it look unsightly, but
can also lead to chipped tile edges. In installations with extreme lippage, it can also be a safety hazard.
Q: How is the LASH Tile Leveling System better than other similar products currently in the market?
A:
The LASH System is the least expensive, most cost effective system on the market today. One of the unique features of the
LASH System is that there are no additional removal tools needed. Once the thinset is cured, LASH Clips are removed by
kicking them off with your foot or a mallet.
Q: How does the LASH Tile Leveling System allow for a faster floor installation?
A:
When using the LASH System, the at bottom holds the tiles and the wedge ensures that they are precisely spaced and held
together until the mortar dries. LASH Pliers are also available to provide maximum force to push Wedges into Clips for faster
installation and less nger fatigue.
Q: How does the LASH Tile Leveling System work with tiles of different thicknesses?
A:
The special design of the LASH System allows for the surface of the tiles to be level with each other regardless of their
thickness. The Clip’s anchor automatically balances under the weight of the tiles and allows for a smooth transition from
one tile surface to the other. The Wedges hold the tiles in place until the mortar dries. Flat LASH can be used for tiles 1/4"
to 7/16" thick.
