Re: [a/s] New Airstream(s) owner
Hi Tom
On the training video from Pergo, they instruct to leave a 1/4" gap all
around the edge of the floor, but in both kitchen and bath installation, to
fill the 1/4' expansion area with Pergo silicon seal (which matches colour).
This will effectively seal the floor, allow expansion and also an fix the
floor so it does not slide around. On the video, they were quite specific
about leaving the 1/4" gap, because the floor expands enough to cause a
buckle.
Also, you have to use a special belt clamp to ensure that glue squeezes out
of the joints and makes them waterproof.
If you do it right - they guarantee the floor.
