Prior to laying, please store Kronotex flooring horizontally in its unopened packaging at room temperature for a minimum of 48 hours (minimum 18° C) so that the planks have enough time to reach room temperature.
Prior to laying, please inspect Kronotex flooring planks for damage, dimensions and visual uniformity in daylight at the installation site. If any significant and justifiable defects are found, please write down the information on the back of the product. No claims can be made for planks that have been used, even if they have visible or mechanical defects.
Kronotex flooring is not suitable for all damp rooms such as bathrooms, shower rooms, saunas, laundry rooms or rooms with high levels of humidity. This is due to the fact that if moisture penetrates laminate flooring, it warps, cups, or buckles.
Kronotex flooring is a wood-based product. In as much as wood is a material that attracts water, the laminate moves and shifts, which is why it is important that a floating installation system is employed. This can result in minor unevenness between adjacent planks. These are manifestations of the authenticity of the wood material.
Important: Allow boxes of Kronotex laminate flooring to acclimate to the ambient temperature of the space in which they will be laid for a minimum of 48 hours prior to installation. In order to forestall any effects from the outside environment, be sure to use open boxes before starting a new one. Installaton should be carried out at a minimum ambient temperature of 18° C.
The following ambient conditions should prevail previous to, during, and three days following installation:
Floor surface: mind. 15 ºC
Air temperature: mind. 18 ºC
Humidity: max. 75%
