INSTALLATION GUIDES LUXURY TILES FLOORING

Before you begin

The temperature of both the room and floor materials must be between +18°C and +25°C. Make sure the floorboards have been stored within this temperature range for at least 24 hours before you begin laying your floor. 

Kährs Luxury Tiles can be laid on top of most underlays. The underlay should be clean, dry, solid and flat. Remove all existing wall-to-wall carpeting or similar floor coverings. If the vinyl floor is to be laid on top of concrete, the relative humidity (RH) can be a maximum of 85% in the underlay. If you are using glue and laying your luxury tile floor on top of underfloor heating, the heat must be turned off for the entire installation process and drying time.

Quick tips

Here are a few fast tips for installing Kährs Luxury Tiles floors:

• Estimate how many floorboards cover the breadth of the room. The breadth at either end cannot be less than 50mm.
• Examine all floorboards before laying them to make sure there is no damage.
• Lay floorboards longitudinally according to the room (lengthways).
• If you‘re laying a Click vinyl floor, make sure there is an expansion joint of 10mm around the entire floor area in relation to the walls and that the floor will be moveable, e.g. not held in place by heavy furniture, etc.
• If you are gluing your floor, always follow our recommendations and relevant rules for which glue to use.
