Although acclimation is not required, for best results ooring could be acclimated for 24-48
hours in its desired environment before opening the cartons.
It is recommended to install the oors when the room temperature is at least 5°C (41°F) to
24°C (75.2°F).
Carefully follow instructions on page 13 “Installation Options”.

Precautions
Do not store Floor Tile and Plank boxes on their sides. Store all boxes horizontally at on the
oor.
Do not use heavy duty tools designed for other ooring materials or installation systems.
NewAge luxury vinyl oor tiles and planks are nished products. Do not use any ooring
nishes (wax/polish).
NewAge luxury vinyl tiles and planks are designed for the oating installation method only.
Do not glue down or secure the oor tiles and planks directly to the oor.
Before starting installation, ensure all cartons contain the correct product.
It is recommended to install your oors in bright daylight to observe any possible
imperfections, defects or damages. NewAge will not be held responsible for any costs related
to installation or visual defects post installation.
Warning: Do not use studded tires on the NewAge Stone Composite Flooring.

Tip: When using a Multi-Tool cutter on your NewAge Floor Tiles, Planks and Accessories, it
is recommended to use a slower cutting speed until you are comfortable to cut faster. This
would allow you to gain more control and avoid any errors.
Warning: Be sure to wear a face mask and safety glasses to protect yourself from the dust while
cutting the oor tiles, planks and accessories.
Recommended Cutting Methods
For large simple and straight cuts , use a compound miter saw.
For smaller and complicated cuts, use a multi-tool cutter.

General Suboor Preparation
Correctly preparing your suboors plays a large part of a satisfactory installation. The NewAge
Stone Composite Flooring uses a “oating oor installation method which can handle minor
oor imperfections. If you have large gaps or protrusions in your suboors, NewAge Stone
Composite Flooring will not be able to cover them.
It is not suitable to install NewAge ooring on carpet. All carpet and carpet tracks should be
removed before installation.
Prior to installing your oors, use a vacuum to remove all dust and debris.
Ensure the surface is structurally sound, at, clean and dry before installing NewAge Flooring.
If your oors are wet, make sure you wait until they are fully dry before proceeding with the
install.
Leave at least a 0.5” gap between the surface of the oor and the bottom of an electric
baseboard heater to allow heat to circulate.
Suboor atness should not exceed 3/16” per 10ft (4.7mm per 3m radius). Suboors must be
leveled before starting the installation of the NewAge Stone Composite Tiles and Planks.
Chisel any uneven surfaces on the oor before starting the ooring install.
Preparing your space - General
Make sure all surfaces are dry, clean and free of dust, wax, solvents, paint, grease, oils and old
glue residue.
Sand or grind any raised areas.
Gaps and holes should be lled with concrete and nished with a straight edge to even the
oor out.
It is important to test the moisture level before starting the install. Using a concrete moisture
meter, the moisture vapor emission rate should not exceed 5lbs per 1000sqft in 24hr. If in Situ
probe testing is to be carried out, according to ASTM F2170, it should not exceed 85%. These
tests would not predict the condition of your oors for long-term and would only indicate the
condition of your oors at the time of the test being conducted.
Note: If you have done concrete work in the desired space, sub-oors must properly cure and be
left to dry for at least 60 days before installing NewAge Stone Composite Flooring.

General Suboor Preparation
NewAge Stone Composite Flooring is suitable to be installed over radiant heating systems as
long as the heating element is not in direct contact with the ooring. Leave at least 1/2” gap
between the Floors and radiant heat systems.
If the radiant heating has been newly installed, leave the system on and operational for at
least 2 weeks prior to installation. This would reduce the moisture levels in the concrete.
Turn o the heating system for 24 hrs before and after installing NewAge Stone Composite
Flooring.
It is recommended for the desired room to be 5°C (41°F) to 24°C (75.2°F) prior to installation.
You may need to use other heating methods prior to install.

If there are pre-installed baseboards in need of replacement, remove old baseboards and
quarter rounds.
If new baseboards and quarter rounds need to be installed, install these items after the oors
have been completed.
Chisel any uneven surfaces on the oor and wall before starting the install.
Ensure the general space preparation has been completed before starting install. Reference
page 8.
Ensure Concrete suboor or Radiant Heating suboor requirements has been followed.
Reference page 8-9.
NewAge Stone Composite ooring can not be installed with pre-installed quarter rounds. All
Quarter rounds need to be removed before starting install.
Once all quarter rounds have been removed, cut approximately 11mm o the bottom of your
baseboards to have enough space for the 9.5mm oor planks or tiles.
Note: If previous oors are thicker than the new Luxury Vinyl Floors, you may need to
purchase a new door casing or plinth block.
Quarter rounds will need to be installed after the ooring is complete.
Ensure the general space preparation has been completed before starting install. Reference
page 8.
Ensure Concrete suboor or Radiant Heating suboor requirements has been followed.
Reference page 8-9.

Installation Tips
TIP - 1 : To make installation easier and quicker, equally distance your boxes of planks or tiles
on your oors. This would allow you to better plan your install.
TIP - 2 : Cut a piece of tile/plank and use it as a tapping block.
TIP - 3: When installing ooring around door trims and it is challenging to use the click lock
proles, remove the top section of the click lock prole to allow you to slide in the plank or
tile under the installed oor. Apply the recommended silicone , on page 5, along the click
lock prole and slide it under the installed ooring. Make sure to wipe o any excess glue and
ensure glue used will dry in clear colour.

Getting Started
Flooring installation layout
It is recommended to lay the long side of the Planks or Tiles parallel to the longest wall or
main window of the room.
When installing the oors, stagger the tiles/planks to ensure a secure installation . Follow the
same layout while installing the wall panels.
To determine the number of rows of tile/planks are required, measure the width of the room
and width of the planks or tiles.
Divide the width of the room by the width of the planks / tiles to get the number of rows
required.
If the last row is less than the width of a full tile or plank, cut the rst row accordingly such
that the rst row and last rows are of even widths.

Installation Options

Install the wall panels before installing the NewAge Stone Composite Flooring.
Once your wall panels have been installed and your space has been prepared, measure 3/8”
from your Installed wall panels and rst tile or plank.
The 3/8” gap will need to remain as your expansion gap along the perimeter of the room.
3/8” should also provide enough space to install the Silver nishing strips at the end.
Read the instructions for Installing the Silver Finishing Strips on page 19-21 before starting.
If you are not installing the Silver Finishing Strips, keep a 3/8” expansion gap between your
wall panels and tile or plank .
Customers have the option of installing their own nishing strips, baseboards and quarter
rounds as long as there is at least a 3/8” expansion gap.
Ensure you have followed the recommended steps on page 10.
