Installing Water Resistant AdvanTech Engineered Wood Flooring

As the framers get started on the first floor deck, Bob highlights the features of Advantech subflooring. The material, fabricated with water resistant resins, is ideal for Vermont as it will not delaminate or swell under wet and snowy conditions. 4' x 8' sheets of the tongued and grooved material are placed with the long dimension running perpendicular to the floor joists. Advantech panels have no knotholes, are made from renewable forest resources, and result in a stronger and quieter floor system. More information
