Bella Installation Instructions

Installation Instructions (I4F)

Before you start:

● Do not store directly on concrete, allow for air circulation. Do not open the cartons but spread

them out and protect corners from damage.

●Before installation, planks / tiles must be allowed to acclimatize to the room conditions. For that

purpose, the original packages shall be horizontally stored unopened in groups of 4-5 for at least

48 hours in the room with normal temperature conditions. Make sure that temperature in the

room of installation lies between 18℃and 25℃. Relative humidity should lie between 40%-65%

(minimum and maximum values, respectively). Both limit values must also be maintained during

installation and afterwards, in the course of regular living use. Subfloor temperature must be at

least 15 ℃. To avoid damage to the product, handle packages carefully and open them just prior

to installation.

● Slight change in color and structure are designed to enhance natural appearance. Mixing or

shutting the planks or tile during installation creates a more visually pattern.

● Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Prolonged direct sunlight and

temperature variation may impact the flooring locking system and may result in discoloration.

Please contact your flooring representative for additional information.

● Inspect all planks or tiles for damage before installing. Claim will not be accepted for flooring

that has been cut to size and/or install.

● Load limits and high point loads should be considered to not restrict the floor from floating.

THE SUBFLOOR

● Proper preparation of the subfloor is a major part of a successful installation. Roughness or

unevenness of the subfloor may telegraph through the new flooring. All subfloors should be

smooth and dust free with a flatness tolerance not exceeding more than 1/8" in a 10’ span.

Cracks and holes must be filled with fast setting cement-based polymer mod fed patching

compound or equivalent.

● Any unevenness over 3/16"(4.7mm) must be sanded down or leveled. The surface must be

clean of dirt, oil, glue residue etc. Carpet staples or adhesive residue should be removed prior to

installation. Voids or humps in the subfloor will prevent the planks from locking property.

● Although these SPC click planks or tiles are water resistant, they are not to be used as a

moisture barrier. Your subfloor should be completely dry prior to installation of the SPC floor. SPC
