Installation Guide
Installation Methods
Floating
Use this method where expansion is needed due to temperature changes. Ensure an underlayment is used and leave a 1/4 inch gap around the perimeter for expansion.
Glue Down
Ideal for areas where a solid foundation is present. Use a high-quality adhesive with a recommended trowel, and ensure a moisture barrier is applied if needed.
Nail Down
Best for plywood subfloors. Use 2-inch nails or staples with a pneumatic nailer, spacing them every 6 inches along the edges and every 8-10 inches in the field.
Site Requirements
- Temperature: The room should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F for at least 48 hours before, during, and after installation.
- Humidity: Relative humidity should be kept between 35% and 55% to ensure flooring stability.
- Preparation: Ensure HVAC systems are operational for at least 7 days prior to installation and maintain consistent lighting conditions. Doors and windows should be installed and closed to stabilize the environment.
