UNDERSTAND HOW TO SPACE THE BOARDS:

The actual width of each board is 15

7/8

”, which provides for installing the boards with a

slight gap in between boards,to allow for expansion at different temperatures and for normal

variances in humidity in a finished home. When aligning straights with the combo ends or

utility ends using a piece of tubing, as shown in the following section, a slight gap of

approximately 1/16” will naturally occur between the straight boards. This is normal. Try to

allow a similar 1/16” inch gap between the ends of all boards, but always make sure all

grooves align, as described in the following section.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROPER STORAGE AND MOISTURE CONTACT:

Infloorboard™ should always be stored in a temperate, dry place (40F°-90F°). Avoid pro-
longed exposure to sunlight. Do not store in a damp location. Be sure to follow all
instructions elsewhere in this manual regarding protecting the board from prolonged
moisture contact. If these instructions are not followed, expansion of greater magnitude
could create undesirable effects.

INSTALLER’S NOTE: MAKE SURE CUT BOARDS ARE ACCURATELY CUT

Since Infloorboard™ is a modular system, the boards are manufactured to tight toler-
ances in groove spacing and squareness of the sides and ends. When cutting
Infloorboard™, make sure to cut them squarely and allgn them carefully so that subse-
quent pieces will fit correctly. This is not difficult, but attention to this easy step will pre-
vent major problems.
