SPC vinyl flooring V-groove White Ash with underlay 5 mm click for underfloor heating AC5

Description

White Ash in the V-groove version is a floor for Scandinavian, minimalist or japandi interiors that need the lightest possible base. The 122 × 18.4 cm planks have gently bevelled edges, so each plank is clearly defined and the whole floor resembles individually laid solid boards.

Light ash that makes the room feel bigger

The Madrid 2105 decor has an almost white, slightly cool base and a very calm, linear grain without prominent knots. Such a surface reflects a lot of light, which is why it works well in small flats, windowless hallways and north-facing rooms. It looks great with light grey plaster, black fittings, rattan and linen. Dust and minor scratches are less visible on a light floor than on dark decors.

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.

Why an SPC floor is a sensible choice

SPC panels combine the look of wood with the resilience of mineral materials. The calcium carbonate and PVC core is fully waterproof and resistant to deformation, so a spilled drink or wet shoes in the hallway are no problem. 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. Compared with ceramic tiles, the floor is more pleasant to the touch and quieter in use.

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 a white floor look dirty?

In practice, light decors hide dust and pet hair better than dark ones. The textured surface diffuses light, and everyday cleaning with a vacuum cleaner and a slightly damp mop is all it needs.

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.

Can I order a sample before buying?

Yes, you can order a sample of this product. The shade on screen depends on monitor settings and lighting, so it is worth seeing the decor in person in your own interior.
