Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Prepare the Subfloor: Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and level. Any imperfections can affect the final result.
- Acclimation: Allow the planks to acclimate to the room temperature for at least 48 hours before installation.
- Layout: Plan your layout before you start. Consider the direction of the planks and how they will fit.
- Installation: Peel off the backing and carefully stick the planks to the subfloor, ensuring a tight fit.
- Cutting: Use a utility knife and straight edge to cut planks to size as needed.
Compatibility
These vinyl planks are compatible with most subfloors, including wood, concrete, and existing vinyl floors. Ensure the subfloor is properly prepared.
Care
- Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and debris.
- Mopping: Use a damp mop with a mild cleaner for more thorough cleaning.
- Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrub brushes, as they can damage the surface.
- Protection: Use felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches.
