NR-142012

NR-142012 is a reddish merlot on a smooth satin face with twelve random faces per design. Planks are 8 x 56 inches in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, 4 per carton for 12.05 sq ft and 24 kg. Where NR-142002 carries the same merlot across six faces, this one doubles the variety, which is the difference between a bedroom floor and a floor that runs through a whole restaurant. Red brown reads traditional against dark wood, cream walls, leather and brass. The smooth glaze mops in one pass, so it holds up in a dining room and under a table.

• How many square feet does a box of NR-142012 cover?

  NR-142012 comes in 8 x 56 inch planks, 4 to a box. One box covers 12.05 sq ft and weighs about 53 lb.

• How many boxes of NR-142012 do I need for a 12 x 15 ft family room?

  A 12 x 15 ft room is 180 sq ft. With 10 percent added for cuts and breakage that is 198 sq ft, or 17 boxes at 12.05 sq ft each.

• Can NR-142012 go over radiant floor heating?

  Yes. It is a glazed ceramic plank 9 to 9.5 mm thick, so it does not gap, cup or split as the floor warms, and it has no 80°F (27°C) surface limit the way engineered wood does.

• What grout joint does NR-142012 need?

  NR-142012 is a curve-edge plank, not rectified, so plan on a joint of 3 to 5 mm, about 1/8 to 3/16 inch. The wider joint gives each board its own line, the way real planks sit.
