SPC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Indoor temperature : SPC oor is suitable for indoor environment, not suitable for outdoor environment where
exposed to sunlight and driving. After the oor arrives at the site, it should be left unpacked for 24-48 hours to acclimate

to let the thermal expansion and contraction rate of the oor same as the new environment.
The room temperature should be controlled between 18-29 degrees Celsius to avoid sun exposure before installation.

Flatness : The paving of SPC oor requires a higher level of atness of the sub oor. Often the atness of the sub oor
directly determines whether the SPC oor can be used.
Therefore, when deciding to use the SPC oor, the original ground must be leveling (terrazzo, ceramic tiles, oor paint,
etc. can be laid directly), Sub oor should be at within a tolerance of 3mm per 2 meter , otherwise, self-leveling cement
Underlayment: It is recommended to use

use underlayment over 2.0mm. Especially for
underlayment over 2.0mm. Especially for SPC oors with a thickness of 4MM,if the sub oor

as partitions if the length or width greater than 10 meter.
Insu cient reserved gap can easily cause oor arching and tile like deformation.

Accessories : Reducer, Quarter round, T-moulding should not prevent the oor from oating.
Even no heavy furniture should be placed on the ooring as this will block the oor from

expansion and contraction.

Maintenance : SPC oor does not need special maintenance, regular cleaning is enough.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time. Do not roll or drag heavy objects
across your oor. Do not polish or wax or steam clean the oor.
