A) Remove carpet and padding. Also remove any wood flooring installed on concrete. Do not remove products unless they are asbestos-free.
B) Undercut door frame and wallbase. Slide the flooring at least 1/4” underneath the door frame and wallbase. Also leave a concealed ⅜”
minimum expansion space under each.
C) Remove bumps or peaks in subfloor and fill depressions with floor leveling compound to ensure no more than 3/16” unevenness per
10-foot span.
D) Acclimate unopened product before installation. If there is no time for acclimation, there should be no more than a dierence of 25° F
and 20% relative humidity between the stocking/transportation environment of the flooring and the final installation environment of
the flooring.
E) Clean debris from subfloor before installation.
F) For concrete subfloors, install vapor barrier with overlapped seams of 8” or more.
G) For planks without attached underlayment, install over single layer of underlayment appropriate for laminate floors.
For planks with attached underlayment, it is not acceptable to install additional underlayment prior to flooring installation.
