Answer There are numerous ceramic tiles that are frost-resistant and are excellent for patios, porches, pool decks, etc. Many unglazed tiles are suitable for exterior use. Their slip-resistance will be dependent on the surface texture, and slip-resistance is important! Glazed, frost-resistant tiles are recommended for vertical exterior surfaces only. The ceramic tile manufacturer will indicate if a participate type of tile is frost-resistant. A frost-resistant installation method is essential.

Here in New England you would normally want to use a frost proof unglazed Porcelain Tile in an unheated area (floor and wall) and outside on the ground.

To be used outdoors, we recommend the tile must be frost-proof and unglazed. A tile is considered frost-proof if its absorption rate is 0.5% or less.
