**INSTALLATION GUIDE NOTE:
In geographic regions where concrete slabs may be subject to higher moisture levels, a calcium chloride test is required. Vapor emission readings in excess of 3 lbs/1000sf in less than 24 hours will require additional protection such as a concrete sealant, moisture abatement, or 6 mil poly-ethylene sheeting.(please follow flooring OEM's instructions verbatim with regards to subfloor prep). While the MVTR is significantly higher than 3lbs for The Silencer SR, it is mandatory to properly prep the subfloor to meet/exceed OEM installation instructions. The minimum value of most OEMs is 3lbs MVTR with regards to placing a moisture abatement before putting down plastic and then underlayment (if on grade) and then the floor.

Since we offer the industry's best warranty and track record and are willing to replace another company's floor parts and labor should our product fail, a properly prepared subfloor that meets/exceeds every major OEMs subfloor prep protocol is mandatory.

New construction installations should be performed only after the building is completely enclosed and the climate control system is in operation for a minimum of two weeks.




Installation Guide
See note at left**

Step 1:

Subfloor surface must be clean and dry before installation.


Step 2:

Start in a corner. Unroll Silencer SR underlayment over subfloor with vapor barrier film down against subfloor.

Be sure tape strip side is next to the wall and overlapping lip is toward the open room.


Step 3:

Roll out next row in the same manner butting foam close to first row and covering overlapping moisture barrier lip.

Do not overlap foam pad just the moisture barrier lip.


Step 4:

Remove tape liner and secure the overlapping moisture barrier to it. Continue with installation.

Seal all open seams with aggressive adhesive plastic tape.


Step 5:

Install flooring per manufacturers instructions.
