Installation Guide

Residential Installation Guide - Sheet Vinyl Flooring

There are three methods of installation suitable for Tra󰮐cMaster residential vinyl ooring:

1. Releasable Full Spread Installation Method using Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (Recommended)

2. Loose-Lay Installation (in areas 25 square yards or less and no more than 1 seam)

3. Permanent Full Spread Installation Method (for “special needs” installations)

General Installation Information

The installation method used is dependent upon the day-to-day activities and the overall oor dimensions.

- The Releasable Full Spread Installation Method provides optimal performance of the vinyl and is the

recommended installation process for all residential Tra󰮐cMaster berglass sheet vinyl products.

- The Loose-Lay installation Method should only be used when the ooring area is 25 square yards or less

and no more than 1 seam.

- The Permanent Full Spread Installation Method can be used for special needs areas, such as those with

rolling tra󰮐c and/or extremely high tra󰮐c. However, PLEASE NOTE that if you elect to permanently

install your Tra󰮐cMaster residential ooring using this method as opposed to the recommended

Releasable Installation Method that labor rates exceeding residential releasable removal and

underlayment will not be covered.
