– Damp-sealed floor covering (PVC, linoleum, VCT, etc.) does not have to be removed. Always use

underlayment. We recommend using Mohawk Flooring® underlayment.

WOODEN SUBFLOOR

– Remove any existing damp-porous floor covering first.

– Make sure the sub-floor is stable. Nail down any loose parts and apply a leveling layer if necessary.

– Install the Uniclic® panels crosswise to the direction of the existing sub-floor.

– It is necessary that the crawl space under the plank floor be sufficiently ventilated. Remove any obstacles and

provide sufficient ventilation (minimum 4cm (1-1/2") of total ventilation holes per meter (40”) of floor). The

moisture content of the wood may not exceed 12%.

Installing the floor

– First install the underlayment, per width and gradually as you progress. If the underlayment is pre-mounted

on the panels, then only use the damp-proof moisture barrier with adhesive tape as provided. For Concrete,

let the moisture barrier run up the wall a bit before cutting to size. For wood, cut the moisture barrier 1 inch

from the wall. A molding will be attached to this later. (See diagram 3A.)

– Begin the first row with a whole plank. First saw off the tongue on both the long and the short sides. (See

diagram 3B.)

– Put the plank with the sawn off sides against the walls. Put spacers from the installation kit between the

planks and the wall. This will ensure that your expansion joint is wide enough: 8 to 10mm (5/16" to 3/8”).

(See diagram 3C.)

The diagrams below indicate where the Uniclic® panels are clicked together by angling up and down or where

they are tapped together flat. Follow the diagrams precisely. (See diagrams 4.1 through 4.16.)
