Installation Guide

Installation Methods

Floating

Ideal for rooms where a quick installation is needed. Lay down the underlayment, snap planks together with a 1/4 inch expansion gap around the perimeter.

Glue Down

Best for areas where stability is crucial. Apply adhesive evenly using a trowel, carefully place each plank, and allow 24 hours to cure.

Nail Down

Use for high-traffic areas needing durability. Secure planks with 1-1/2 inch nails or staples every 6-8 inches, ensuring alignment.

Site Requirements

  • Temperature: Keep the room temperature between 60°F and 80°F for optimal results.
  • Humidity: Maintain a relative humidity between 35% and 55% to prevent wood warping.
