Installation Information  

When installing PRIMACTU in your desired wet or dry area:

Ensure that the underside of the flooring is appropriately ventilated. Be sure to check all subfloors, such as floorboards for damage, and firmly reinstall any loose floorboards prior to tiling.

If you’re adding PRIMACTU to wet areas, be sure to add in a waterproof membrane between the underlay and tiling. This will ensure the protection of the tiles in areas that are prone to getting wet.
