SPC Floor Installation Dubai

Before You Start

⚠️ Important Note:

After installation, room temperature must stay above 10°C. Very high or low temperatures can cause the flooring to expand or shrink, which may lead to damage.

✅ This flooring comes with an attached foam underlayer.
Do not install it over carpet or any other underlayer (except 6mm plastic sheet over concrete).
✅ For commercial use, do not use any extra underlayer — this will void the warranty.

Installation Tips

• Do not install in places where the temperature drops below -18°C or goes above 60°C.
• No need to acclimate the flooring unless the boxes were in extreme temperatures for more than 2 hours.
• For areas larger than 600 m² or lengths over 25 meters, use expansion joints.
• Always leave a 6mm expansion gap around walls, pipes, and fixed objects.
• Do not use glue or nails.
• You can install this floor over underfloor heating, but the temperature must stay below 30°C, and keep at least 12mm between the flooring and the heating pipes.

Tools You Need

• Expansion spacers
• Rubber mallet
• Ruler
• Pencil
• Measuring tape
• Cutter or sharp knife

Installation Guide

1. Start from the left corner, with the tongue side facing the wall.

2. Insert the second plank at an angle, then tap gently with the mallet.

3. Keep at least 20 cm gap between end joints of planks.

4. Start each new row with a full plank.

5. For the last row, cut the planks to fit — make sure the plank width is at least 5 cm.

6. Leave a 6 mm gap around all edges.

7. At doorways, cut the plank to fit under the door frame.

Maintenance

• Clean with a broom or vacuum cleaner with a soft head.
• Wipe with a slightly damp cloth — do not use wax or oils.
• Avoid steam cleaning for long periods.
• Use felt pads under heavy furniture.
• Avoid abrasive or bleach-based cleaners.
• Clean spills immediately to prevent stains.

Removing the Flooring

• To remove, lift the plank at a 5° angle and pull it out gently.
