Glue Down Installation Procedure
PLEASE NOTE:
ANY EXCESS GLUE WHICH GETS ONTO THE SURFACE OF THE FLOOR MUST BE REMOVED IMMEDIATELY WITH ADHESIVE REMOVER
The steps in glue down method are very similar to the floating installation method. The only difference is the application of the glue to the
subfloor prior to installation. For more detail instruction, see the floating installation section above
Step 1 – Make sure the flooring does not have an attached underlayment. Flooring with attached underlayment cannot be glued down.
Step 2 – Read ALL adhesive manufacturers instruction.
Step 3 – Read the Glue Down Installation Tips in Helpful Pointers section.
Step 4 – Spread the glue
• Spread the glue from the starting line out in the direction of the center of the room, the width of two planks. Or spread only enough
glue to install what can be set within 45 minutes (15 minutes of OPEN TIME and an additional 30 minutes for actual installation. Usually
about two rows width coverage). Different manufacturer may require different open time and set time.
• Repeat with the next two rows, etc.
Step 5 – Begin installation in the same way as floating installation. From beginning to finishing touch.
