What are the effects of sudden ambient temperature and humidity changes (as in cold climates) on interior ceramic tiles?
Ceramic tiles are very tolerant to temperature extremes as they are capable of expanding and contracting to some degree. The more absorbent the ceramic tile, the more it will be affected by temperature and humidity changes. Extreme changes in temperature and moisture can cause tiles to crack. However, in general if the tiles have been laid well and have proper movement (expansion joints) they should be able to withstand normal changes in climatic conditions.
