FAQs

What tools are needed to trim the pad?

Underluxe requires no special tools for trimming. The pad is easily trimmed using household scissors or a utility knife.

Which side faces the carpet or hard floor?

The grey side faces down to the hard floor (tiles/stone/timber/vinyl etc) while the white side faces down to carpet surfaces. Watch the installation videos above for a demonstration.

Will Underluxe leave a residue?

Underluxe does not leave residue on carpet. When installed on a smooth surface, Underluxe may leave a slight residue which is water soluble. The residue can be cleaned with water or basic household floor cleaners as long as you follow the manufacturer's guidelines for your flooring product.

Can I wash Underluxe?

It is not recommended to wash Underluxe, as the washing process may actually remove the stickiness, which is how the product works.

How long does Underluxe last?

Underluxe works for as long as the floor is kept free from unusual amounts of dust and/or moisture - we have seen this quality underlay perform for longer than 10 years, in the right environment.

How do I cut Underluxe if I need to change the shape?

The pad is easily cut using regular household scissors or a utility knife.

Can I use Underluxe on heated floors?

It is safe to use, as long as the floor doesn't exceed 30°C.

Can I use Underluxe on the outside of my home?

If the rug is completely protected from weather, you can try - however it is not designed for moisture and UV exposure and the warranty does not extend to outdoor use.
