These installation specifications are for Rocaille WPC Flooring .

All recommendations are based on the most recent available information. The information on this sheet provides general guidelines. All instructions and recommendations must be strictly followed for a satisfactory installation.

 The floor covering should be stored and installed in climate constant or climate controlled indoor location with an average temperature of between 65° - 85°F or 18° - 29°C and a humidity range of 30 - 50%.

 Moisture barrier is recommended to prevent moisture from seeping through the planks and damaging the walls (Rocaille planks themselves will not be damaged by exposure to moisture)  Install Rocaille WPC Flooring only after the jobsite has been cleaned and cleared of everything that may hinder a fluent installation or may damage the p lanks.

 To minimize shade variation, mix and install planks from several cartons.  Note that color uniformity of the planks can only be guaranteed for deliveries of the same production lot .  No complaints can , in any case , be accepted for flooring that has been cut to size or installed.  All necessary subfloor patching must be done with a non - shrinking, water - resistant filler. Follow strictly the instructions from DIN 18365 and DIN 18202.

 Give Rocaille WPC Flooring a minimu m 24 hours to acclimate in the room where the installation will take place. Do not open the package but spread them out and protect package corners from damage .  As a rule: install all planks parallel to the main source of light in the room. Only in small and long and small rooms Rocaille WPC Flooring must be installed in longitudinal direction . SUB FLOOR INFORMATION C orrect preparation of the subfloor is a major part of a successful installation.

Roughness or unevenness of the subfloor may telegraph through the new floor covering, resulting in an unsightly surface and excessive wear on high spots . ALL SUB FLOORS MUST BE: ● CLEAN - Scraped or sanded, swept, free of wax, grease, paint, oil, previous or existing glues or adhesives, and other debris

● SMOOTH/FLAT - Within 3/16” on 10 ’ radius . Sand high areas or joints, fill low areas (no more than 1/8”) with a cement type filler no less than 3000 p.s.i. Any irregularities may cause hollow spots between the flooring and sub floor in any installation method and are not warranted.

● STRUC TURALLY SOUND - Nail or screw any loose areas that squeak. Replace any delaminated or damaged sub flooring or underlayment. WOOD SUBFLOORS:  Do not install Rocaille WPC Flooring over wood subfloors which lay directly on concrete or over sleeper c onstruction .  All wood and wood composition panels are suitable for the use under Rocaille WPC F looring providing that they are smooth, flat, structurally sound and free of deflection. The panels include plywood, particle board, oriented strand board (OSB ), flake board and wafer board.  If the surface of the wood subfloor is not smooth, a ¼” or 6mm underlayment panel must be installed over the subfloor.

CONCRETE SUBFLOORS:  The concrete subfloor must be dry, smooth and free from dust, solvent, paint, wax, grease, oil, and any other extraneous materials. The surface must be hard and dense, and free from powder or flaking.  New concrete slabs must be thoroughly dry (at least si x weeks) and completely cured. The final responsibility for determining if the concrete is dry enough for installation of the flooring lies with the floor covering installer. Although Rocaille WPC Flooring is not susceptible to damage from moisture, excess ive subfloor moisture is an ideal breeding ground for mo ldiness, mildew and fungus. The limited warranty does not cover discoloration from mo ld or mildew or from any kind of water damage caused by flooding, leaking or similar conditions. If needed, ask for Rocaille WPC F looring warranty conditions at your dealer.  Holes, grooves, expansion joints and other depressions must be filled with a latex underlayment, and trowelled smooth and feathered even with the surrounding surface.  Concrete floors with a radiant heating system are allowed, provided that the temperature of the floor does never exceed 89°F or 32°C. Before installing the flooring, the heating system must be turned on to eliminate residual moisture. EXISTING FLOOR COV ERINGS:

 Rocaille WPC F looring can be installed over most existing hard – surface floor coverings, provided that the existing floor surface is smooth or can be made smooth.

 Ceramic tiles should be made smooth by applying a cementitious overlay such as patching or levelling compound.  When the removal of the existing resilient floor covering is not an option then it must be covered w ith a leveller or equivalent in order to adjust it. Existing sheet vinyl floors should not be heavily cushioned and must consist of only one layer.
