3.01 Pre-installation requirements:
a. Installer must examine substrate and conditions under which carpet is to be
installed and notify the Construction Manager, in wridng, of conditions
detrimental to the proper completion of the work. Do not proceed with
installation of carpeting until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected in a
manner acceptable to the installer and carpet manufacturer.
1. Do not install carpet over concrete with either excessive moisture or dust
producing surface which is not adequately sealed.
2. Clear away debris, cememtitious deposits, and similar obstructions or
subsrrates to receive carpeting. Fill cracks and voids inducting
honeycombed concrete, but do not obstruct expansion jo'mn.
3. Sequence carpeting installation with other work in a manner, which will
minimize possibility of damage or deterioration to carpeting and yet not
delay completion of project.
3
b. Clean surfaces to be carpeted immediately prior to installation, check critical
dimensions of spaces to be carpeted to ensure that planned use of materials will
fulfill requirements, including location for seams joints and edgings.
c. Dimensions: prior to start of carpet installation, check critical dimensions of
spaces to be carpeted to ensure that planned use of materials will fulfill
requirements, inducting locations for seams, joints and edgings.
d. Pre£abtication: At contractor's opfiun, carpeting materials may be prefabricated
prior to delivery to point of installation.
3.02 Installation:
a. General:
1. Comply with manufacturer's instructions and recommendations. Place
seams in directions 'indicated on submitted shop drawings and as
accepted by existing carpet patterns. Maintain direction of pattern and
texture, induding lay of pile. Do not seam weft to wrap, except as
spedfically indicted for a direction change. Final approval by Wheeler
Opera House staff.
2. Extend carpet under open-bovcomed and raised-bottom obstructions.
Extend carpet into closets and alcoves of rooms indicated to be carpeted,
unless floor finish is indicated for such spaces. Extend carpet under
movable furniture and equipment, unless otherwise indicated.
3. Provide cutouts or tutoring joints (as applicable) for removable access
covers if needed and similar required access through carpeting to
substnte. Install carpet divider strips, with comers accurately mitered and
tightly butted. Apply seeming cement to cut edges of carpet.
4. Install carpet edge guard at locations where edges of carpet is exposed to
traffic, except where another device such as expansion ioint cover system
or threshold is indicated with integral carpet binder bar or edge guard.
Anchor edge guard to substrate.
5. Doors: Where seams relate to doors center seams under thickness. Do
not place carpet seams in wdfic direction in doorways.
b. Glue-Down Installation:
1. Install a test sample to demonstrate effectiveness of adhesive. With
owner's personnel present, remove sample, demonstrating procedure to
minimize damage to carpet. Apply primer to entire substrate where
necessary for adequate bond of carpet.
2. Fit sections of carpet into each room pr space prior to application of
adhesive. Trim off Mill edges, unless carpet has been premed.
Maintain straight seams, true with lines of building.
3. Apply seaming cement on cut edges of carpet at seams, without being in
evidence on face of carpet, but securing base pile at cut.
4. Apply adhesive uniformly to substrate in accordance with manufacturer's
instructions. Burr carpet edges tightly together to form seams without
gaps. Roll lightly to eliminate air pockets and ensure uniform total-area
4
bond of carpet to substrate. Remove adhesive (if any appears) promptly
from face of installed carpet.
A. Stretch-in-Tackless Installation:
1. Install tacldess carpet stripping in accordance with manufacturer's
instructions, using adhesive and coordinating with indicated method of
terminating carpet at wall base. Where other method is not indicated,
turn cut edge of cas-pet down to substrate in tight slot between base and
edge of stripping.
a. Nail stripping to substrate as recommended by manufacturer.
2. Install cushion over entire area to be carpeted. Butt cushion tight against
edges stripping. Hold cushion back from terminal edge o£ carpeting,
approximately 1" only'where carpet edge is edge is shown to be not
secured by edge stripping or binder bar. Place cushion with slip-resistant
face down, fabrics face up; 9omply with cushion manufacturer's
recommendations. Where possible; orient main cushion seams at 90
degrees with carpet seams; locate cushion seams to offset carpet seam
locations by at least 12". Apply 2" wide fabric-type adhesive tape over
seams in cushion. Stretch cushion lightly and eliminate air pockets from
under cushion.
a. Staple cushion to wood substrates in manner recommended by
cushion manufacturer, with random spacing of staples primarily
~ near edges and seams. Applytape before insr~lllrtg staples where
fabric top surface of cushion is not sufficiently strong to prevent
pull-thru staples. Install extra staples in ramped areas.
b. If using approved carpet with enhance backing follow
manufacturers directions for applications on glue down.
3. Install carpet with both lengthwise and cross seams taped, sewn, or
taped-and-sewn (from below), using permanent type construction which
is of sufficient strength for stretching and wear without failure during life
of carpet. Apply seaming cement to cut edges of carpet without being in
evidence on face of carpet. Maintain straight seams, running true with
lines of building. Coat stitching on backing with seaming cement or latex
coating where not covered with tape.
4. Stretch carpet both directions the precise amount (percentage of
width/length) recommended by carpet manufacturer. Adjust to eliminate
wr{nkles, trim, secure to tackless stripping, and conceal cut edges
a. Use power stretchers in accordance with recognized industry
practice, except strength of hand in areas too small for proper use
of power stretchers.
b. Secure carpet to tacldess stripping around isolated cutouts
following completion of stretching; then make cutout and
complete edge treatment.
B. Miscellaneous Installations:
1. On stairs and similar substrates, install carpet by secure method
recognized to be durable and safe for traffic on stairs and under seats in
the balcony, Conceal edges and avoid making seams at points of high
wear. Coordinate the installation and use of cushion and accessories with
adjoining carpeted floor areas.
3.03 Cleaning, Protection, Follow-up service:
a. Remove old carpet, dean floor, and remove debris from installation, carefully
sorting pieces to be saved fi:om scraps to be disposed of.
b. Vacuum carpet with commercial machine with rotating agitator or beater in
nozzle. Remove spots and replace carpet where spots cannot be removed.
c. Advise Construction Manager of areas that should be protected during
remainder of the construction period so t_hat carpet will be in undamaged and
unsoiled condition at time of acceptance. Recommended type Of non-staining
c~>ver material that should be used for protective cover.
Re-stretching Return to installation after approximately 6 months of carpet use
(but not more than one year after installation), at a time convenient to Owner's
Occupancy. Re-stretch each are of stretch-in-tacldess carpeting. Trim edges,
repair, and seaming faults and adjust edge treatments.
e. Save old carpet as indicated by Wheeler Opera House, location of storage to be
determined by Wheeler Opera House staff.

Clean spots sepmly from all other cleaning applications. Clean all spots
i'n a four step process:
1. Use COLD WATER first. Jg the spot persists, go m step 2.
2. Use HOT WATER second. Follow cold water with hot water. If
..? ;;. the spill was hot (such as coffee or tea), it may require hot water to
"' - 'L .~' ':: } :.;::. 5" ':' ':i :'} ': 14 remove. If the spot persists, go to step 3.
3. Use DuraSafe 1007 Ail Propose Spot Remover according to the instruc-
tions below, followed by a cold wam-r rinse. (Remember: what you put
onto the carper must be removed.) If the spot perststs, go to step 4.
4. Use DuraSa/e 2007 Paint, Oil. and Grease Remover. (N~EX,~R apply a
solvent directly to the carpet.) Apply DuraSafe 2007 to a wi-rite cotton
rowel and mb it into the spot. then therouglg, y flu.~h with water to re-
move all cleaner put into the carpet.
· '. -...:.. i.i:.: - .i.":-.'.
NOTE: Never use chlor~ated solvents, peU'olemn dkstillates, quatemanes
(ammonium chloride), or ciu'as cleaner~.
If the apet returns, there are two reasons: either 'he cleaner used was
not fully rinsed from the carpet and the chemical caused rapid t~so~lJng, or
the spot at the yarn base was bigger than the surface spot. Either condition
can be easily corrected by thorou~,~y rinsing with warm water.
