INSTALLATION GUIDES WOOD FLOORING

Vista

Most of our wood flooring is produced with our revolutionary glueless Woodloc® or Woodloc® 5S joint, which locks the boards together mechanically, with virtually invisible joints. The superior fit also enhances the floor's performance and durability.

Floor installaton checklist:

  • A floor can only be as good as the subfloor permits.
  • To avoid moisture absorption, open the packages only when needed during installation.
  • The relative humidity on site must be below 60%.
  • The subfloor must be dry, clean, solid and sufficiently flat.
  • Soft, elastic subfloors must be adjusted.
  • Make sure that the correct vapour barrier is fitted.
  • The foam plastic underlay (EPS) must have sufficient compressive strength.
  • The foam plastic film must comply with applicable thickness tolerances.
  • Put aside any damaged or faulty floorboards.
