Installation requirements

floors.
For installation of vinyl sheet, these basic guidelines should be followed:
● Store sheet for 48 hours in room where it will be installed. Keep room
at a minimum 65˚ F (18˚ C) during that time and during installation.
After installation, temperature should not fall below 65˚ F for the
first 48 hours, and not below 55˚ F (13˚ C) after that.
● If room is heated by radiant coils in the subfloor, the SURFACE
TEMPERATURE OF THE FLOOR should not exceed 85˚ F (29˚ C) .
● The subfloor should be level, clean, and free of wax, grease, oil or dust.
● If necessary, patch or fill any cracks in the subfloor with Armstrong Patch
& Skim Coat.
● Use Armstrong Embossing Leveler to smooth any texture or embossing
on the old vinyl floor.
● Install over smooth, well-bonded single layer resilient floors or over dry
concrete and wood floors with a plywood overlay.
