Shaw Profusion 20 Carpet

Available For Order - Ships between Oct 22 - 29

• First you will want to make sure your subfloor is free of all dirt and debris.
• If there are cracks, holes or depressions, we recommend you fill those.

• Group rolls and cuts working from the longest patter repeat gradually down to the shortest.
• Shift trimmed edges to achieve a match near the mid point of the seam.
• Insert hot melt tape under seam.
• Melt together that portion of the seam that is visually acceptable.
• Using a power stretcher or knee kicker, stretch along the “short” side in 3 to 5 foot sections.
• As each small section of the seam is matched, insert seaming iron and prepare that section. Leave stretcher locked in position until each section cools.
• Do not complete any section of seam that does not match.
• Once all seams are matched and complete, the entire installed area is stretched. Image and more detailed instructions of how to do this can be found in the printable instructions.

• Trowel notch size, shape and adhesive coverage rate must be maintained as noted on the glue pails installation instructions.
• If patterned carpet is being installed, installation sequence must be determined based on pattern repeat size.
• On non-patterned loop pile carpets, row cut one of the edges to be seamed, overlap this edge over the other edge, and scribe cut to the row-cut edge.
• Obtain a net seam – do not compress – use knee kicker or “crab”stretcher to position.
• Bead all edges with seam sealer on all carpets regardless of construction.
• Avoid air entrapment – lay carpet into adhesive working in both directions from center.
• Roll with 75 lb. Roller in both length and width directions or as directed by the cushion manufacturer in “double stick” applications.
• Restrict heavy traffic and furniture movement for 24 hours.
