Installation Guide
Installation Methods
Floating
Ideal for quick installations and areas where adhesive or nails cannot be used. Ensure a clean, dry, and level subfloor. Use a recommended underlayment for sound and moisture control.

Nail Down
Best for solid wood surfaces, requiring a plywood or OSB subfloor. Use specified nails and spacing, ensuring proper pressure settings on nail guns.
Site Requirements
- Temperature: Maintain a consistent range of 60-80°F (16-27°C) for at least 48 hours before and during installation.
