Installation Methods
Floating
Use this method over underlayment when you want a quick installation without adhesives or nails. Ensure an expansion gap of at least 1/4" around the perimeter.

Nail Down
Opt for this method on wooden subfloors using 1-1/2" to 2" nails or staples spaced every 6-8" along the tongue.
