Installation Guide

Installation Methods

Floating

Use this method when you want easy installation and removal. Lay an appropriate underlayment, click boards together, and maintain a 1/4" expansion gap around the perimeter.

Glue Down

Choose this method for a more permanent installation. Apply adhesive with a notched trowel, lay planks, and roll with a 100 lbs roller to ensure adherence.

Nail Down

Opt for this when installing over a wooden subfloor. Use a flooring nailer and 1-1/2" to 2" cleats, spacing them every 6" to 8" along the tongue.

Site Requirements

  • Temperature: The room temperature should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F for at least 48 hours before installation.
  • Humidity: The relative humidity levels should be between 30% and 50% for optimal performance.
  • Preparation: Ensure HVAC systems are operational at least 48 hours before installation to maintain consistent environmental conditions. Keep windows and doors closed to control environmental conditions.

Tape measure, chalk line, miter saw, rubber mallet, tapping block
