Installation Instructions:

Preparation:

• Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and free of dirt, dust, grease, or other foreign materials.
• Check that the subfloor is level and stable before beginning installation.

Starting the Installation:

• Begin in the front left corner of the space you are tiling.
• Ensure the female side (loops) of the tile is facing away from the edge of the installation area.

Laying the Tiles:

• Lay the first tile in the corner and align it properly.
• Continue adding tiles along the left edge and the adjacent edge, making sure each tile locks securely with its neighbor.

Filling the Space:

• Once the edges are filled, proceed to cover the rest of the space with whole tiles, working your way outward.
• Ensure each tile is securely interlocked with the adjacent tiles.

Trimming Tiles:

• When you reach a wall or an obstruction, measure the required space accurately.
• Cut the tiles to fit using a sharp utility knife, leaving a 3/4” space between the tiles and the edge or obstruction to allow for expansion.
• Place the trimmed tiles into position.

Final Steps:

• After all tiles are in place, inspect the installation for any loose tiles or misaligned edges.
• Make any necessary adjustments to ensure a smooth, secure fit.
