MaxCore™ Luxury Laminate

5G Installation, Care & Warranty Guidelines

Thank you for your Provenza MaxCore™ Luxury Laminate flooring purchase. MaxCore™ Laminate floors are beautiful, durable and backed by industry standard warranty coverage. With proper job site preparation, installation, and routine care and maintenance, your new Provenza MaxCore™ Laminate floor will give you years of beauty and function.

Provenza MaxCore™ Laminate floors feature an attached underlayment pad and are designed for a floating installation method and can be installed over existing floors provided they meet the subfloor requirements outlined here.

MaxCore™ Laminate flooring is intended for interior use only and is suitable for above-grade, on-grade, and below-grade applications. MaxCore™ Laminate floors should not be installed in locations where the substrate below the building structure is exposed to the elements or where there are structural problems related to ongoing moisture exposure.

INSTALLER/OWNER RESPONSIBILITY

Please read these instructions and warranty disclosures completely before proceeding to installation!

BY INSTALLING THIS PRODUCT, YOU ASSURE THAT ALL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS OUTLINED HERE HAVE BEEN MET AND AGREE TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE PROVENZA MAXCORE™ LUXURY LAMINATE FLOORS LIMITED WARRANTY.

PRODUCT HANDLING, INSPECTION & STORAGE

Always transport and store product cartons carefully to prevent damage to the flooring inside. Cartons should be stored in a climate controlled environment on a flat surface and not upright on their ends or in areas subject to extreme temperatures, including but not limited to garages, basements, storage containers, sheds, crawl spaces, or attics.

It is the installer/owner’s responsibility to inspect the flooring product purchased. This inspection should include product color, quality, finish and locking system. Provenza Floors™, Inc. will not accept responsibility for the installation of MaxCore™ Laminate flooring with visible manufacturing defects or damage.

If the product is not acceptable, DO NOT PROCEED TO INSTALLATION. Do not continue opening cartons and do not discard cartons that were opened during inspection. Contact your retailer immediately for assistance!

JOBSITE PREPARATION

EXTERIOR

Structural damage caused by water and/or high humidity must be resolved prior to installing Provenza MaxCore™ Luxury Laminate flooring.

Ensure that exterior grading is complete with surface drainage offering a minimum drop of 3" in 10' to direct exterior water sources away from the structure where the flooring will be installed inside.

Crawl spaces should be a minimum of 18" high, insulated per latest building code requirements, with a minimum 6-mil ground cover vapor barrier. Crawl spaces should offer cross-ventilation air vents equivalent to at least 1.5% per 100 square feet of floor space.

INTERIOR

Moisture issues must be detected and corrected before installation. MaxCore™ Laminate floors provide up to 80-hrs surface water resistance but are not intended for use as a moisture barrier.

The jobsite should be enclosed and climate controlled. HVAC systems must be fully operational with a consistent room temperature of 65°–85° F and relative humidity levels of 35%–55% before the flooring is delivered or installed, and throughout the lifetime of the flooring installation.

Do not install MaxCore™ Laminate floors where they will be subject to extreme hot or cold temperatures at any time. Do not install cabinets or heavy fixtures on top of MaxCore™ Laminate flooring.

To eliminate potential trade-related damage, Provenza recommends that installation of its MaxCore™ Laminate flooring be one of the last jobs completed.

SUBFLOOR CONDITIONS

The quality and preparation of the subfloor is critical to a successful MaxCore™ Laminate installation.

ACCEPTABLE SUBFLOOR TYPES

  • CDX Plywood.
  • Concrete. Minimum compression strength of 3000 PSI.
  • OSB/Particleboard.
  • Existing resilient tile, sheet vinyl (one layer only) or ceramic tile.

Minimum subfloor requirements for all installations:

  • Structurally sound, smooth, clean, and free of debris, including but not limited to, staples, nails, wax, grease, paint, sealers and old adhesives.
  • Level and flat to 3/16" per 10'.
  • Dry throughout the lifetime of the installation.

Wood subfloor must be:

  • Tested for moisture not to exceed 11%.
  • Nailed or screwed down every 6" along the joists to remove subfloor squeaking.
  • Leveled with high spots sanded down and low spots filled with a leveling compound. Leveling material should provide a structurally sound wood subfloor.

Concrete subfloor must be:

  • Fully cured for at least 60-90 days prior to installation.
  • Tested for relative humidity, moisture, and pH. Relative humidity tests should not exceed 85% (RH); Calcium Chloride Test for moisture should be no more than 8lbs per one-thousand square feet in 24 hours MVER (Moisture Vapor Emission Rating) and pH tests for alkalinity levels should register between 7 and 9.
  • Installed properly with a minimum 6-mil poly film moisture barrier between the concrete and ground below.

When MaxCore™ Laminate products are installed over ground level concrete and below-grade applications (concrete or existing floors), a 6-mil poly film must be installed as an additional layer of moisture protection. A concrete sealer can be used as another type of protection. When installing the 6-mil poly film, it should be overlapped 6 to 8 inches using waterproof tape to seal all seams and extended a few inches up the walls. Improper installation of 6-mil poly film will result in issues such as noise, squeaking, creaking and failure of the locking mechanism. Improper installation can also lead to misalignment of planks and/or damage to the flooring over time. Proper preparation and installation are essential for the longevity of your flooring.

Existing Subfloors

Resilient tile, sheet vinyl or ceramic tile requirements:

  • No more than one layer.
  • Well secured to structural subfloor.
  • Grout lines of any depth should be filled in with a cementitious leveling and patching compound to assure a smooth, flat surface. The leveling compound must be completely dry before installation.

DO NOT INSTALL MAXCORE™ LAMINATE FLOORING OVER CUSHION BACKED GOODS OR ANY OTHER FLOORING THAT IS NOT COMPLETELY ADHERED TO THE SUBFLOOR.

Floor coverings that must be removed prior to installation include: Carpet, needle felt, cushion vinyl, floating floors of any kind, parquet, solid and engineered hardwood over concrete, sleeper substrates and pavers with an uneven surface. Do not install over wood flooring glued to concrete.

RADIANT HEAT GUIDELINES

Provenza MaxCore™ Laminate floors should only be installed over “embedded” radiant heat flooring systems. Prior to installation, the radiant heating system should be operational with the heating temperature set to 68°F 48 hours before, during and 72 hours after installation.

The temperature of the radiant heating system may be increased gradually 72 hours after installation, but the surface temperature should never exceed 85° F. See provenzafloors.com for detailed radiant heat guidelines.

ACCLIMATION

Provenza MaxCore™ Laminate floors require acclimation for a minimum of 72 hours prior to their installation. Product cartons should be placed in the area where they will be installed. Do not stack boxes directly on the concrete subfloor. HVAC systems must be fully operational with a consistent room temperature of 65°– 85° F and relative humidity levels of 35%–55%. Remove plastic wrap from flooring cartons if present but do not open the flooring cartons or take out individual planks until acclimation has been achieved and the flooring is ready to be installed. Proper temperature and humidity levels in the installation area are key to the acclimation process.

INSTALLATION

Tools and Supplies needed: Expansion Gap Spacers, Ruler, Pencil, Tape Measure, Utility Knife.

Provenza MaxCore™ Laminate floors are designed to replicate the look of a real wood product with natural variations in color, texture, and shade. For optimal visual effect, shuffle planks from several cartons and avoid installing similar planks next to others nearby.

For aesthetic purposes, plank flooring is often laid in the direction of the longest wall. It is the responsibility of the installer/owner to choose which direction the flooring will run before installation starts.

Provenza MaxCore™ Laminate floors can be installed in a staggered fashion to achieve an overall random appearance, but other patterns can be implemented and it is the responsibility of the installer/owner to make this decision before installation starts.

STARTING INSTALLATION

Select installation starting point next to an outside wall. This is usually the straightest and best reference for establishing a straight working line.

Establish the working line by measuring an equal distance from the wall at both ends and snapping a chalk line. The distance you measure from the wall should be the width of a full plank. You may need to scribe cut the first row of planks to match the starting wall to establish a straight working line if it is out of square.

Undercut or notch-out door casings to fit the floor thickness by setting a plank piece on the subfloor and using it as a height guide for sawing. Remove door thresholds and base moldings and replace them after flooring installation.

Place ⅜" expansion spacers around the perimeter, including adjacent existing floors or other structures such as hallways, door jams and thresholds. For rooms larger than 50-feet, the expansion space should be increased to ½".

Measure the room at a right angle to the direction of the flooring, calculate number of planks required to fit, and, if necessary, cut plank widths in the first row to a smaller size. The ending row must be a minimum of 2" wide. You may want to position a few rows before starting installation to confirm your layout decision and working line.

Before starting installation make sure the subfloor is clean and free of debris.

When laying the flooring, ensure that end joints are staggered from each other in adjoining rows. For optimal results, end joints should be staggered a minimum of 15" for plank lengths of 48" to 60" and a minimum of 22" for plank lengths greater than 72". A cut-off piece can be used for starting the next row provided it is at least 15" long, otherwise discard it and cut a new random length plank of at least 15 – 22" as applicable.

Always begin each row from the same side of the room and ensure that the required expansion gap spacers are placed at ends and edges where planks meet the wall. The tongue side of the plank should face the starting wall.

As installation proceeds, cut the last plank in each row allowing for the required expansion space, and continue to check that both the long sides and end joints are fully locked, secure and have not shifted during this process. Continue to check for and clear debris from the subfloor before laying each plank.

During the installation process, the installer/owner should inspect and approve each plank that will be used and avoid placing planks with the same patterns nearby each other.

The installer must use reasonable selectivity and hold out or cut off pieces with defects, whatever the cause. Provenza Floors will not honor claims due to a lack of on-site flooring inspection and acceptance by the installer/owner.

The short side should now be unlocked and the plank can be lifted up and away from adjacent planks. This tool is not needed to separate planks.

FINISHING THE JOB

Remove expansion spacers from the perimeter. Install or reinstall baseboard and/or quarter round moldings to cover the expansion space. For bathtubs or showers where standard molding cannot be installed, use flexible caulking in its place.

Install transition pieces such as reducer strips and t-moldings as needed, being careful not to nail or pin them to the flooring underneath. T-moldings are required at all doorways for commercial installations.

Clean and remove all dirt and debris from your new floor by dust mopping or vacuuming.

If needed, cover your newly installed floors with rosin paper to protect them while other trades are working. Clean the floor thoroughly before laying the rosin paper to ensure that no debris is trapped underneath.

DO NOT USE plastic film or other non-breathing coverings as this can cause increased humidity. Overlap rosin paper on long edges and seal with tape to prevent debris from getting underneath. Secure rosin paper at walls by taping to trim, avoiding adhesive tape contact with the flooring surface.

Heavy furniture should be moved onto the newly installed floor using an appliance hand truck over hardboard runways to avoid damaging it.

FLOOR CARE & MAINTENANCE

Provenza MaxCore™ Luxury Laminate floors are durable, but like all interior floor coverings require periodic maintenance to look their best and prevent problems before they occur. The frequency will depend on your lifestyle and traffic on the flooring over time.

Routine/Preventive Care Do’s and Don’ts:

  • Sweep, dust mop or vacuum (air suction only) regularly to remove loose dirt and grit. Do not use treated dust mops on MaxCore™ Laminate floors.
  • Do not use a steam cleaner on MaxCore™ Laminate floors.
  • Clean up spills or pet accidents immediately.
  • Clean using Provenza’s All Purpose Floor Cleaner.
  • Do not use harsh cleaners or chemicals, or abrasive scrubbing tools.
  • Avoid exposure to long periods of direct sunlight. Close blinds or drapes during peak sunlight hours. MaxCore™ Laminate flooring exposed to excessive heat and light is subject to thermal degradation.
  • Maintain consistent room temperature of 65°–85° F and relative humidity levels of 35%–55% at all times.
  • Do not expose MaxCore™ Laminate floors to temperatures exceeding 110° or temperatures below 32° F.
  • Do not expose MaxCore™ Laminate floors to acetone or other harsh chemicals such as oil or petroleum-based products. Do not track asphalt-driveway sealer or automobile oil onto MaxCore™ Laminate floors.
  • Ensure that chairs or furniture with casters or wheels are easy swiveling with large surface non-staining casters and suitable for resilient floors use. Do not use ball type casters as they can damage the floor.
  • Protective mats and chair pads are required under office chairs or furnishings with rolling casters.
  • Ensure that frequently moved furniture is protected with felt pads to avoid scratching the floor. Heavy furniture and appliances should be equipped with non-staining large surface floor protectors. Use floor protectors under furniture.
  • Use walk-off mats at entrances to prevent dirt and grit from being tracked on to the floor.
  • Protect flooring in the kitchen area with a high-quality rug in areas subject to hot oil spills or splatter.
  • Use non-staining mats only. Rubber-backed mats may discolor the floor.
  • Do not use electric brooms with hard plastic bottoms without padding as these may damage the flooring.
