Can Turkey's Fire Onyx be used exterior applications in very rainy climates?
Turkeys Fire Onyx is an igneous rock that is known for its unique color variations and fire-like appearance. While it is generally a durable and resistant stone, its use in exterior applications in very rainy climates needs to be considered carefully. The water absorption rate of onyx is relatively high compared to other stones, which means that it can absorb water if not properly sealed and maintained. In very rainy climates, where the stone is exposed to excessive moisture, it may be more prone to water damage, such as cracking, spalling, and staining. It is essential to ensure the proper installation, including an effective waterproofing system and sealing to minimize the risks associated with water absorption. Moreover, the constant exposure to rain and other weather elements can also cause the appearance of the stone to degrade over time. Excessive moisture can exacerbate color fading, erosion, and other weathering effects on the surface of the onyx. To ensure the longevity of the onyx in exterior applications in very rainy climates, it is advisable to consult with a professional stone contractor or architect who can assess the specific conditions and provide appropriate recommendations. They can offer guidance on the proper sealing, maintenance, and periodic inspections necessary to mitigate the potential risks and preserve the beauty of the stone in such climates.
