Installation Guide

Installation Methods

Floating

Use this method when subfloor conditions are less than ideal or for quick installations. Ensure a suitable underlayment is used, allowing for expansion gaps around the room's perimeter.

Glue Down

Best for areas where a strong bond is required. Use a high-quality adhesive suitable for engineered hardwood and follow the manufacturer's trowel and application guidelines.

Nail Down

Ideal for wooden subfloors where a long-term solution is desired. Ensure nails are spaced 6-8 inches apart along the board and 1-3 inches from the ends.

Site Requirements

  • Temperature: The room temperature should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F for 48 hours before, during, and after installation.
  • Humidity: The acceptable humidity levels should be between 30% and 50%.
  • Preparation: Ensure HVAC systems are running for at least 48 hours prior to installation. All lighting should be operational, and doors and windows should be installed and closed to maintain consistent environmental conditions.

Required Tools

Essential Tools:

Circular saw, rubber mallet, tape measure, chalk line, and safety goggles.

Optional Tools:

Flooring roller, tapping block, and pull bar.

Maintenance Guide

Routine Care

  • Daily: Sweep or vacuum with a hard floor attachment to remove dirt and debris.
  • Weekly: Use a damp mop with a microfiber cloth and a floor cleaner specifically designed for hardwood.
