7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the recommended subfloor preparation for this product?
A: The subfloor must be clean, dry, flat, and structurally sound. A variance of no more than 3/16" over 10 feet is required. Concrete must be fully cured, and wood subfloors should be checked for flatness. The attached underlayment helps with minor imperfections but does not replace proper subfloor preparation.
Q: Can this flooring be installed below grade, such as in a basement?
A: Yes. Its 100% waterproof SPC core makes it an excellent choice for below-grade installations where moisture vapor emission rates (MVER) are within acceptable limits. We recommend conducting a moisture test on concrete subfloors prior to installation.
Q: What is the best practice for determining which direction to lay vinyl plank flooring?
A: The general rule is to install planks parallel to the longest wall or the primary source of natural light to enhance the room's length and visual flow. In open-concept spaces, consider laying planks perpendicular to the main entrance or in the direction that flows through multiple rooms consistently. Always refer to our detailed installation manual for layout planning.
Q: Is transition molding required for large area installations?
A: For floating floor installations, we recommend using T-moldings in doorways or where the flooring run exceeds 40 feet in length or 30 feet in width. This accommodates the natural expansion and contraction of the flooring system.
Q: What are your minimum order quantities (MOQ) and lead times?
A: Our standard MOQ for mixed-container loads is 500 sqm. Lead times vary based on the collection and finish, typically ranging from 15-30 days for stocked items. We offer flexible logistics solutions, including FOB and CIF terms. Contact our sales team for a specific quote and sample availability.
