For GeoWood ooring, lay boxes on the oor and only open
box ends as shown above.
Acclimate your oor as close to
the installation area as possible, for 24 hours in normal
living conditions.
Acclimate Your GeoWood Flooring for 24 hrs
GeoWood ooring can be used in areas ranging from
50°F to 100°F. The ideal indoor humidity range for
GeoWood is 35-65% relative humidity.
Leave at least 3/8” expansion spaces between ooring and ALL
vertical objects (walls, cabinets, pipes, etc.). Large ooring runs may
require additional expansion space. Flooring runs over 40 feet
require additional expansion space or transitional pieces. A
t-molding must be used in doorways and openings between rooms
3 feet wide 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.
