Carlisle Humus Flooring
Humus FLOORING
HUMUS FLOORING
Inspired by the natural beauty of Walnut, Humus was created. With its rich-reddish brown color over the extremely hard substrate of Hickory, this dark wood floor with its deep brown undertones is an excellent alternative to Walnut.

CHARACTERISTICS
Uniquely fashioned to leave the prominent Hickory grain patterns visible, the overall color palette covers up most of the natural variation in the wood. Fortunately, this variation is not all gone and hidden shades come to life as the afternoon sun rakes across your living room floor revealing characteristics you had not seen before.
SURFACE
Wood subfloors that allow for nailing (at industry prescribed schedule) require at minimum; the use of a caulking gun (such as Wakol MS 265) adhesive bead, applied across the full width of the planks at intervals of 8-12” in addition to mechanical fastening. Full-spread wood flooring adhesive applied by trowel to the substrate surface is recommended and will provide the most optimal method of glue-assist.
INSTALLATION
Immediately following installation of the flooring materials, the woods surface should be thoroughly cleaned and appropriately protected to avoid damage to the flooring as other construction trades complete their responsibilities.
DETAIL
-Flooring should be installed in the direction recommended by the Architect or Designer or parallel to the longest wall. -Expansion space of at least ½” is required around the perimeter of the installation in each room. -Installation using full-spread glue requires the of use appropriate surface weight to properly set the individual board into the adhesive. Adhesive transfer of 95% or more to the bottom of the plank is required and must retain contact with the adhesive and substrate once dry and cured. 5 gallon buckets filled with sand or water are most commonly used for this purpose. Depending on adhesive requirement weights can typically be redistributed after 20 minutes.
