INSTALLATION GUIDES | HARDWOOD
RADIANT HEAT
Hallmark Floors’ hardwood flooring is an exceptional choice for installation over specific hydronic radiant heat (warm water) or FiberThermics Mat (electric). We use only true hardwood veneers and TITLE VI complaint glues for the center-ply in our engineered floors. NOTE: Hickories & Solid wood are not compatible for Radiant heat, click below for full guide.
LIGHT EXPOSURE
Changes will occur (patina) when wood is exposed to UV rays from sunlight, florescent, LED, and incandescent bulbs. Window coverings, UV resistant tint, solar screens can minimize but not eliminate this natural occurrence.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Wood is a product of nature. As a natural material, it will expand and contract as it gains and loses moisture. Some gaps between the boards during low-humidity seasons are normal and not considered a defect.
