EXPANSION
GAPS
GeoWood flooring can be used in areas ranging from
50°F to 100°F. The ideal indoor humidity range for
GeoWood is 35-65% relative humidity.
Leave at least 3/8” expansion spaces between flooring and
ALL vertical objects (walls, cabinets, pipes, etc.) Large flooring
runs may require additional expansion space. Flooring runs
over 40 feet require additional expansion space or
transitional pieces. Undercut door jambs and casings to
provide adequate expansion space. Do not screw or nail
cabinetry or other permanent fixtures to a floating floor.
