Vusta Installation Guidelines

Preparation

Vusta Flooring should be fitted to a cement based screed or plywood substrate. A chipboard substrate is not recommended
The subfloor must be clean, even and free from imperfections. Any surface contaminants (i.e. lacquer, paint etc.) must be completely removed prior to installation and visible cracks must be repaired
A cementitious substrate must have a RH (Relative Humidity) reading of 70% or less before fitting can begin. If underfloor heating is being used, all systems must be commissioned and operating for 7-14 days before fitting can commence
24 hours prior to fitting, it is imperative that the temperature within the installation area is kept constant and the flooring is on site to allow for acclimatisation

During installation:

If underfloor heating is being used, it should be turned off at least 3 hours prior to fitting the floor
Once the floor as been installed, remove any adhesive from the surface immediately
Roll the floor with a minimum 50kg roller after installation
Do not turn on any underfloor heating for at least 48 hours after installation
Do not put any furniture on the floor for 24 hours to allow it to cure fully
Only maintain with the recommended Vusta cleaning materials

If underfloor heating is being used, all systems must be commissioned and operating for 7-14 days before fitting can commence
24 hours prior to fitting, it is imperative that the temperature within the installation area is kept constant and the flooring is on site to allow for acclimatisation

During installation:

Roll out the Vusta Vitesse underlay in the opposite direction to the way in which the floor will be installed and using a spray adhesive secure the ends of each run to the subfloor.
Proceed with the installation of Vusta Vitesse butting the planks up tightly together and allowing an expansion gap of 1mm around the perimeter
The floor can be tra¢cked immediately following installation
