Additional Instructions/Notes
• Always inspect the ooring thoroughly before installation.
• DO NOT slide heavy appliances or furniture over or across the ooring. Always lift objects and place them on a hard board between the
ooring and object and gently reposition them.
• Use caulk next to bathtubs, showers, sliding doors, patio doors, around metal door jambs or similar areas.
• For bathroom installations, it is not necessary to remove the toilet. Make relief cuts around the perimeter of the toilet and make sure the
vinyl ooring is laying at before trimming off the excess material. Apply permanent exible caulk around the toilet, next to the bathtubs
and showers to prevent moisture from getting under the vinyl. Note: if there is a ceramic sanitary cove and no place to install trim mold,
you can apply silicone caulk around the walls.
• Make sure furniture legs have large surface, non-staining plastic oor protectors or non-staining felt pads. The protectors should be at
least one inch in diameter and rest at on the oor. The heavier the item, the wider the oor protector should be. Replace small, narrow
metal or dome-shaped glides with smooth, at glides that are in at contact with the oor.
• Never tape around the perimeter of the room.
