The Quick Installation Guide


Preparation


Installation

  • In the selected starting corner, lay the first panel with the groove sides against the temporary 1/4” spacers.
  • Press-fit panels together with a tapping block and hammer, making sure seams are tight.
  • Stagger panel seams similar to a brick wall pattern. Complete one row at a time across the room allowing for a 1/4” gap around walls and room obstructions.
  • Use DRIcore leveling shims for any floor variations less than 1/4”.


Finish with flooring

  • Ideal for carpet, laminate, engineered hardwood, tile and vinyl flooring.
  • For best results, run a dehumidifier to maintain relative humidity between 30 - 50% and regulate the room temperature to 21°C (70°F).
