Installation Guide

INSTALLATION
Remove the tongue from the wall side of the first row of planks.
All flooring installations require foam underlayment. Run the foam underlay in the same
direction as the laminate panels. Underlay should be butted side by side (no overlap). See
Photo2.
For installations on concrete floors or over crawl space a vapor barrier must first be laid down.
Run the poly 2” (5cm) up walls and overlap seams 18” (45cm). Tape seams. See Photo3.
Remove the tongue (on the longside) from the first row of planks on the longside. This will
ensure the decorative surface of the flooring is under the finished trim when installed. Use a
utility knife to score through the tongue several times until it easily snaps off. See Photo 4.
