Installation Methods
Floating
Ideal for installations over concrete subfloors. Requires a vapor barrier underlayment. Leave a 1/4" expansion gap around the perimeter of the room.
Glue Down
Best for stable, flat subfloors. Use a high-quality wood adhesive and follow adhesive-specific working and cure times.
Nail Down
Suitable for plywood subfloors. Use 1-1/2" nails or staples with a pneumatic nailer at a 45-degree angle, spaced every 8-10 inches.
Site Requirements
- Temperature: Your room should be between 60°F and 80°F for optimal installation conditions.
- Humidity: Maintain a relative humidity level between 30% and 50% to ensure the wood doesn't expand or contract excessively.
- Preparation: Ensure the HVAC system is operational at least 48 hours before installation to stabilize the environment. Close windows and doors to prevent drafts, and provide adequate lighting for installation.
