SITE REQUIREMENTS

NatureTEK Select™ is a durable oor covering, not intended as structural material. NatureTEK Select requires a clean, dry,

secure suboor that meets building codes. The following requirements are not intended to supersede federal, state or local

building codes, but as with many other interior nish products, may require modifying existing structural components for

successful installation. Owner assumes responsibilities for compliance with all building codes. NatureTEK Select ooring is

suitable for use in climate controlled (35-65% RH and 60-85° F) indoor installations only and should not be installed in rooms

with oor drains or sump pumps. NatureTEK Select oor can be installed above, on or below grade. A moisture test is strongly

recommended to determine if high moisture exists in the suboor. When using a calcium chloride moisture test for concrete

suboors (ASTM F1869), values must be ≤ 5 lbs/1000ft²/24-hr or <80% RH with an in situ probe (ASTM F2170). Moisture

readings of wood suboors must be ≤ 12%. Acceptable job site conditions, including relative humidity and suboor moisture

conditions, must be maintained throughout the lifetime of the ooring. NatureTEK Select ooring is installed as a oating oor

and requires the use of T-moldings in doorways less than 32-inches (0.81m) or if the installation changes directions through

the doorway (regardless of doorway size) and in rooms 50 feet (15.24m) or larger in length or width. Floor movement must not

be constrained by glue, nails, screws, hardware or other xed obstructions. This product must be installed in accordance with

these installation instructions.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS SITE AND MATERIAL PREPARATION 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 3/8” 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.

Repeat these steps to complete the installation.
