EXPANSION
GAPS
Vinyl ooring can be used in areas ranging from 32°F to
113°F.
Leave at least 1/4” expansion spaces between ooring and
ALL vertical objects (walls, cabinets, pipes, etc.) Large ooring
runs may require additional expansion space. Use transition
moldings between rooms and doorways 3 feet or less.
Undercut door jambs and casings to provide adequate
expansion space. Do not screw or nail cabinetry or other
permanent xtures to a oating oor.
