Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and flat; any imperfections in the subfloor can cause the click-lock joints to stress over time. Use an appropriate underlayment if recommended for your specific subfloor type. When installing, allow for a small expansion gap around the perimeter of the room to accommodate natural movement. For daily care, simply vacuum or sweep to remove loose dirt. Use a damp microfiber mop with a pH-neutral cleaner to maintain the sheen. Avoid steam cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the protective wear layer.
