Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and free from debris.
- Roll out the carpet underlay, ensuring it lies flat.
- Trim excess material with a sharp utility knife.
- Install carpet directly over the underlay according to carpet manufacturer guidelines.
Compatibility:
This underlay is compatible with most carpet types, including synthetic and wool carpets. It is suitable for use with underfloor heating systems, but always check specific manufacturer recommendations for both the underlay and heating system.
Care:
Carpet underlay itself requires minimal direct care. The primary maintenance involves regular vacuuming of the carpet installed above it. Avoid using excessively wet cleaning methods on the carpet, as moisture can potentially seep through and affect the underlay over time. Periodically check for any signs of damage or compression, especially in high-traffic zones.
