Installation Methods
Floating
Suitable for rooms with frequent temperature or humidity changes. Use a high-quality underlayment and leave a 1/4 inch gap around the perimeter for expansion.
Glue Down
Ideal for concrete subfloors. Use a manufacturer-recommended adhesive and follow trowel size guidelines. Allow the adhesive to cure for 24 hours before walking on the floor.
Nail Down
Best for wooden subfloors. Use 2-inch cleats or staples and ensure proper spacing of 8 to 10 inches apart. Check air pressure settings for pneumatic tools to avoid damage to the wood.
