How are loose lay floors installed?
Loose lay is one of the installation methods of LVT floor.And loose lay floor can also be called loose lay floor,so how is this type of floor installed? The following will solve your confusion.
The loose lay/self-sinking LVT floor, as the name suggests, does not use glue, but adopts a simpler way to lay the floor to a certain extent, that is, the installation method of directly paving on the ground by virtue of the effect of gravity, so as to achieve a loose lay Effect.
The specific steps of loose lay are roughly as follows:
▶First of all, the paved ground is required to be in a flat state. For the first installation of loose lay LVT floor, a self-leveling environment needs to be created before construction, and the loose lay LVT floor can be directly installed for renovation.
Then, measure the size of the range that needs to be installed, and make a basic layout, and the type of layout is not single. In terms of layout, I-shaped layout and step layout can be used.
▶Next, define the initial installation line and adjust the position of the reference line.
Finally, lay the floor directly on the ground, and with the help of gravity, the loose lay LVT floor can be adsorbed on the self-leveling.
▶In addition, this loose lay LVT floor has certain requirements for ground leveling. When constructing self-leveling, care should be taken to ensure a control of the flatness of the entire ground. In other words, as long as the ground is level, there is no need to make too many adjustments to the ground before construction. Compared with the self-adhesive LVT floor, which requires a flat and clean floor, the self-sunk LVP floor has more important requirements before construction, that is, the ground is flat. The back of the loose lay LVP floor usually has folded stripes or fish scales, and the common thickness is 4.0/5.0/6.0MM.
To a certain extent, the installation method of this loose lay LVT floor is environmentally friendly and healthy, easy to replace, and of excellent quality, and can be applied to some relatively high-end decoration places, such as bungalows, clubs, bars, villas, etc.
