Glue-less Some manufacturers have a glue-less system where the shape of the tongue and groove allows the pieces to "snap" together. Once installed, there is no way they will separate. It's fast and easy to install as well as to remove!
ACCLIMATE THE FLOORING
In its original, unopened cartons, lay the flooring flat and leave it in the room where it will be installed for a least forty-eight hours before you install it. This is necessary in order to minimize dimensional changes in the installed floor. The room should have its normal living temperature.
