Installation Guide
Installation Methods
Floating
Ideal for areas with slight subfloor imperfections. Use an appropriate underlayment to reduce noise and improve comfort. Allow for 3/8" expansion gaps at all fixed objects. Maximum room dimension without transitions is 40 feet in length or width.
Glue Down
Choose this method for concrete subfloors. Use a high-quality urethane adhesive compatible with engineered hardwood. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for trowel size and adhesive application. Ensure moisture barriers are in place if required.
Nail Down
Best for plywood subfloors. Use 1-1/4" to 1-1/2" nails or staples, spaced every 6-8 inches along the tongue. Maintain correct air pressure settings to avoid damaging the flooring.
Site Requirements
- Temperature: Keep the room between 60-80°F for the Bison 5" flooring.
- Humidity: Maintain relative humidity levels between 30-50%.
- Preparation: Ensure HVAC systems are operational at least 7 days prior to installation, providing stable room conditions. Keep windows and doors closed to prevent drafts.
