Operation of the 5G- i Push Down Välinge de Materia SPC Installation
- Preparation: Before starting the installation, make sure that the floor is clean, level and free of any obstacles that may hinder the process. No matter what surface our MATERIASPC rigid SPC floors are installed on: cement, concrete, old ceramic floors, wood… the only requirement is that the surface is solid, smooth and dry.
- Exposure to high temperatures may damage the material. It is recommended to store indoors at a controlled temperature between 18 and 29ºC. If this condition is not met, it is recommended to acclimatise the goods in the room to be installed, for a short period of time (24/48h), placed flat and without stacking more than 5 boxes.
- Remove the planks from the boxes 12 hours before installation. When installing, mix tiles or planks from different cartons to enhance the natural aesthetics.
- The ideal ambient temperature for installation should be between 15 and 26ºC.
- Laying the first board: Start in one corner of the room and place the first board diagonally to the wall. Make sure the long end of the board is aligned with the wall. Installation parallel to the longest wall or main light source is recommended to enhance the visual effect.
- Starting the click: Once the first board is in place, position the next board at an angle of 20-30 degrees to the board already installed. Align the short end of the second Materia SPC rigid vinyl flooring plank with the long end of the first plank.
- Click and drop: Now, push down the second board to make it fit the first one. As you lower the board, you should feel and hear a click that indicates that the boards are properly adjusted. Continue to lower the board until it is completely flat on the ground.
- Repeat the process: Continue this click and drop process for the remaining tables. Place each board at an angle, align the ends and then press down until it clicks into place. No additional adhesives or supports. Dust free. No debris. Effortless. No additional adhesives or substrates, no dust and no debris. – Surfaces exceeding 200 sqm or 15m linear will require transition profiles to avoid deformation of the installation.
- Adjustments: If necessary, you can make adjustments to the boards using a hammer and a soft tapping block to make sure they are properly fitted and level.
