When installing Biiflor Homogeneous Pvc flooring, the quality of the installation has a critical impact on the floor's service life. Proper installation work can reduce many issues during later use. When temperatures are high in summer, what aspects should we pay attention to?

1.Although temperatures are high in summer, the ground remains relatively damp during the rainy season. Therefore, installation should only proceed once the specified standards are met.

2.In summer,Homogeneous PVC flooring may experience significant thermal expansion and contraction due to temperature variations across different environments, such as storage, transportation, and installation. Thus, upon arrival at the construction site, the flooring should be left to acclimate for approximately 24 hours until its shrinkage rate stabilizes in accordance with the ambient temperature before installation begins.

3.During the installation of Homogeneous PVC flooring, appropriate expansion joints should be left to prevent issues with gap spacing caused by temperature variations. In summer, the spacing should be slightly smaller. If winter standards were followed, the gaps would become excessively wide when temperatures drop.

4.Due to higher temperatures in summer, when using adhesive to install Biiflor homogeneous PVC flooring, the area of glue application should not be too large, and the drying time should be shorter than usual to avoid reduced bonding strength caused by overly rapid glue drying. By adhering to these four points during summer construction, the service life of Biiflor Homogeneous PVC flooring can be significantly extended. Always remember to choose a professional installation team.
