Product Information

Full details

The Guardian Click Vinyl Flooring Planks in Akron Teak are ideal for homeowners and commercial property managers seeking a durable, low-maintenance flooring solution that replicates the look of natural wood. These planks offer the key benefit of a 100% waterproof construction paired with a simple click-lock installation system, making them perfect for moisture-prone areas like kitchens and bathrooms; however, users should note that as a rigid core product, the subfloor must be perfectly level to prevent joint stress over time.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I install these over tile?

Yes, provided the existing tile is flat and smooth. You may need to use a leveling compound to fill in grout lines so they do not telegraph through the vinyl.

Is the flooring scratch-proof?

The flooring is scratch-resistant, but not scratch-proof. We recommend using protective pads under furniture legs.

Do I need an extra underlayment?

No, these planks come with an integrated underlayment designed to provide sound absorption and cushioning.

Can I use this flooring in a sunroom?

While the planks are stable, extreme temperature fluctuations from direct sunlight can cause issues. Check local climate suitability.

How long is the warranty?

The product includes a 15-year residential warranty and a 5-year commercial guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Planks are separating at the joints

Ensure the subfloor is perfectly level. Check if the expansion gap at the wall is insufficient, which can cause the floor to buckle.

Floor sounds hollow or clicks when walking

This often indicates an uneven subfloor. Use a self-leveling compound on the subfloor before installation to resolve unevenness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a clean, flat, and dry subfloor. Before beginning, allow the planks to acclimate in the room for at least 24 hours. The click-lock system allows for floating floor installation, meaning you should maintain a small expansion gap (typically 8-10mm) between the planks and the perimeter walls.

Maintenance is simple: use a soft broom or vacuum cleaner for daily debris removal. For deeper cleaning, use a damp mop with a pH-neutral floor cleaner. Avoid steam cleaners or harsh abrasive chemicals, as these can damage the finish and the locking mechanism. Always use felt pads under furniture legs to protect the surface from scratches.
