Mohawk Luxury Vinyl Flooring Care and Maintenance

Your Mohawk Luxury Vinyl Flooring will provide years of carefree use. You will find that it is not only beautiful, but

durable. It is also much easier to maintain than most other flooring products, thanks to its tough protective finish

and moisture resistance. It only takes a few simple care and maintenance steps to keep your Mohawk floor looking

beautiful for years to come.

Preventative Maintenance

• Prevent indentations and scratches with the use of non-staining floor protectors or felt pads on the legs of

chairs, appliances and all heavy furniture. Floor protectors should be at least one inch in diameter.

• Do not flood floor or subject to standing water.

• Protect your floor from tracked-in dirt by using mats at all outside entrances. Mats should have a non-

rubberized backing and be marked as non-staining.

• Avoid tracking in tar or asphalt from driveways.

• Avoid high heeled shoes on your floor, as they can cause permanent indentations.

• Protect your floors against burns. Burns from cigarettes, matches or other extremely hot items can cause

permanent damage.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can cause discoloration.

• Temperature within the room must be maintained between 0ºF - 140ºF (-18ºC - 60ºC). Extreme ranges

between 0ºF - 45ºF (7ºC - 46ºC) and 115ºF - 140ºF (46ºC - 60ºC) apply to unoccupied environments only.

Cleaning and Maintenance

• Sweep the floor regularly with a soft bristle broom to remove loose dirt.

• Wash the floor with non-abrasive, neutral pH floor cleaner.

• For every day maintenance, a mop moistened with warm water will suffice.

• Spills should be cleaned up immediately.
