1) Subfloor surface must be clean, dry, level and
smooth, with all screw holes and seams filled or taped over.
2) Roll out flooring and let it acclimate to room
temperature. Floor may be rolled inside out. Please make certain that
the smooth side is up, and the foam or textured surface is down. Room
temperature should be the highest temperature the room will reach
when in use. (Remember, all those bodies working creates heat). Acclimatizing
the floor may take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. 3) Make
certain floor is lying flat to the subfloor and that all seams are
even. Make all appropriate cuts. Leave a 1/2" (12.70 mm) gap
between wall and a 1/16" (1.59 mm) gap between the seams.
4) Your floor should look like it is ready to be
used.
5) Secure one end of each roll of flooring with weight
so it will not move.
6) Roll the first roll closest to the furthest wall
back onto its core and apply double face tape to the subfloor around
the roll's perimeter and down the middle (2.5 ft, 3 ft or 3.25 ft
(.73 m, .91 m or .99 m) from the edge). Leave all other rolls in place
rolled out.
7) Re-roll out this roll to check the positioning
over the tape.
8) If all is fine, roll up the floor, remove the
protective paper from the double face tape and reroll over the exposed
double face tape.
9) Repeat procedures 6 through 9 for each roll.
10) If necessary, use 75lb. roller to further secure
floor.
Caution: Change top
tape every four months. Change double face tape every two years. Failure
to do so can cause flooring to crack and ripple.
