Acclimatising

The laying process is essential for a beautiful floor and good preparation starts with acclimatisation! For optimal laying results, it is therefore important to give the floor enough time to warm up.

Tips for acclimatising

  1. Make sure the room in which the floor is to be laid is between 18° and 26°C.
  2. Check the humidity of the room. The ideal humidity is between 40% and 60%.
  3. Lay the luxury vinyl flooring separately and well-spaced in the room where the floor is to be laid.
  4. Allow the floor to acclimatise for at least 48 hours.

Why acclimatise?

If a floor is properly acclimatised, it will hardly expand or shrink during and after installation. So acclimatising prevents many problems and creates a beautiful end result.
