Would this be suitable to increase the thickness of porcelain tiles under a log burner?
Our advice: This backer board would give you an extra 6mm depth underneath your tiles. It is suitable to be used under a log burner.

Do I need to tank and prime hardie backer boards?
Our advice: Yes, if using this in a shower area, you can use our Waterproofing kit. https://www.tilemountain.co.uk/p/mapei-shower-waterproofing-kit.html

can this be installed direct onto brick wall ?? if so what kind of adhesive is needed cheers steve
Our advice: Hi Steve, thank you for your question. The HardieBacker Board can be installed directly onto a brick wall. Adhesive is not needed to secure this to your walls, just screws.

Can the board be installed instead of floor boards on floor joists and also take the weight of a bath tub?
Our advice: Unfortunately no, the HardieBacker board would need to be installed on top of floorboards. We would recommend using 6mm HardieBacker Board 1200x800 SKU: 445675 for the floor.
