SPC vinyl flooring V-groove Brown Oak with underlay 5 mm click for underfloor heating AC5

Description

V-groove Brown Oak with the Brussels Birch V decor is the choice for people who like floors with character. The deeper, warm brown and pronounced knots add depth to the interior, and the bevelled edges emphasise the division into individual planks, as in classic wooden floors.

Brussels Birch V: deep brown with a rustic touch

The decor depicts oak in a walnut-brown tone with darker knots, cracks and varying colour intensity on individual planks, so the floor does not look repetitive even over a large area. The colour suits loft-style interiors, classic studies, homes with brick features, and combinations with white, bottle green, navy and black.

What does a V-groove edge give you?

The bevelled edges create subtle grooves between the planks that clearly define each plank, just as in solid wood floors. The floor gains depth and a more natural look, and any minimal height differences at the joints are less noticeable.

Waterproofing and comfort in one panel

The panel has a rigid SPC core made of calcium carbonate and PVC that repels water 100% and does not change dimensions with fluctuations in humidity. That is why these panels are laid not only in rooms but also in kitchens, bathrooms (outside the shower cubicle) and high-traffic premises. The factory-bonded IXPE 1 mm underlay dampens footstep noise, evens out minor subfloor irregularities and means you do not need to buy a separate underlay. The surface is easy to keep clean and feels warmer than tiles.

Technical specifications

How many packs should I order?

Panels are sold in full packs. One pack contains 10 planks, which is 2.2448 m² of flooring. Add an allowance for cuts to the measured area: about 5% for straight installation and about 10% for diagonal installation or irregularly shaped rooms. The calculator on this page converts the area into packs automatically.

• 10 m² + 5% allowance: 5 packs (11.22 m²)
• 20 m² + 5% allowance: 10 packs (22.45 m²)
• 30 m² + 5% allowance: 15 packs (33.67 m²)

Where can these panels be used?

Use class 33 and abrasion class AC5 mean the panels are also designed for high-traffic areas. They are suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, children’s rooms, hallways, kitchens, dining rooms and bathrooms (outside the shower cubicle), as well as offices, surgeries and commercial premises. They are a good fit both for new homes and for renovations.

Installation and care

• Before installation, leave the unopened packs in the room for 48 hours so the panels adjust to the temperature and humidity.
• The subfloor must be clean, dry, level and load-bearing; level out larger irregularities before laying.
• Leave an expansion gap at walls, thresholds and other fixed elements.
• Lay planks taken alternately from several packs to achieve a natural distribution of shades.
• Inspect the panels before installation and report any comments on their appearance before laying them.
• For everyday care a vacuum cleaner and a slightly damp mop are enough; do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaners and do not leave standing water on the floor.
• Stick felt pads under the legs of heavy furniture to spread the load.

Frequently asked questions

Will dust be visible on a darker floor?

A medium brown with a distinctive pattern hides minor dirt well. Dust is more visible on uniform, very dark decors than on such a multi-tonal surface.

Do I need to buy an additional underlay?

No. Each panel has a factory-integrated 1 mm IXPE underlay, so once the subfloor is prepared you can start laying straight away.

Are these panels suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?

Yes, the SPC core is 100% waterproof and the surface has slip resistance class DS. In the bathroom, lay the panels outside the shower cubicle and wipe up spilled water promptly.
