Installation Guide
Installation Methods
Floating
Ideal for installations over concrete or existing flooring. Use a moisture barrier underlayment, leave a 1/2 inch expansion gap around the perimeter, and ensure room dimensions do not exceed 40 feet in length or width without expansion joints.
Glue Down
Best for stability over wood or concrete subfloors. Use a premium wood flooring adhesive, ensuring a working time of 30-45 minutes. Allow 24-48 hours for the adhesive to cure fully.
Nail Down
Suitable for wood subfloors. Use 1-1/2 inch nails or staples with a pneumatic nailer set to 70-90 psi. Space fasteners every 8-10 inches along the board.
Site Requirements
- Temperature: Your room should be between 60°F and 80°F (15°C and 27°C) for optimal installation conditions.
- Humidity: Maintain a relative humidity level between 30% and 50% to prevent issues with the engineered hardwood.
- Preparation: Ensure HVAC systems are operational for at least 7 days prior to installation. Ensure the area is well-lit, and doors and windows are closed to maintain controlled conditions.
