No, although it is 24-hour water-resistant, it is not waterproof and should not be installed in rooms with high humidity or standing water.
Each pack contains eight planks covering approximately 1.8336m².
It is compatible with most standard water-based and electric underfloor heating systems, but always verify the maximum surface temperature does not exceed manufacturer guidelines.
No, the L2C click-locking system is a floating floor installation and does not require glue.
For light surface marks, use a laminate repair kit that matches the Light Oak finish to blend the scratch into the wood grain.
Ensure the subfloor is perfectly level. Gaps often occur when the floor is installed on an uneven surface or if the expansion gaps at the walls are not maintained.
Check that the L2C click system is fully engaged. If a click is not fully snapped in, the plank may appear to lift under pressure.
This is likely due to an uneven subfloor or the absence of a proper underlayment. Ensure the foundation is solid before installation.
Before installation, ensure your subfloor is level, clean, and dry. A suitable underlayment is recommended to improve sound insulation and moisture protection. The planks should be acclimated in the room where they are to be installed for at least 48 hours. For daily cleaning, use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment or a dry microfibre mop. Avoid using heavy amounts of water or steam cleaners, as these can compromise the joints. In case of spills, wipe the liquid away within the 24-hour window to maintain the integrity of the surface.
