About This Product
Bruce Water-Proof Engineered Hardwood with Hydropel Technology is made from 100% wood construction and is water-proof up to 36 hours, providing extended protection against every day spills. Hydropel Technology allows you to enjoy the beauty of hardwood in every room of the home, including kitchens, bathrooms, and basements, while giving you confidence it will stand up to life's everyday spills and accidents. Using a 3-part system, Hydropel Technology protects against surface water damage by implementing a tight locking system, a water-proof, hyper-dense wood core and coated backing, and using a proprietary coating on plank edges to seal out water. To preserve its beauty for a lifetime, a performance coating is applied to each plank to prevent scuffs scratches, and stains. This coating adds a durable layer of protection between the natural hardwood and the uncertainty of everyday life, allowing you to live worry-free when it comes to protecting your floors.

Questions & Answers
What stairnose matches the Bruce Hyropel in Hickory Taupe?
Hi! I received a sample of the hydropel and it has a rubberized backing already attached. Is this supposed to be torn off of every plank if we are gluing the product down to cement in Florida? Do we still need to put an underlaymet?
Hi! Thanks for your question. The attached pad should not be removed, even when the floor is being glued down. It is designed to remain attached to the plank as part of the product construction. Additionally, if you plan to glue the floor down it is not necessary to use an underlayment. For additional information regarding installation please visit the following link: https://bit.ly/3TSF5nH
Hi I am considering this flooring for a cottage that is unoccupied over the winter where temps could get to -20F. Can this flooring be used? Thanks
Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to contact us. The Bruce Hydropel Natural Hickory 7/16" x 5" EHWR54L10WR will perform best in environments that are maintained between 60 and 80 degrees but most importantly the floor needs to be maintained at a relative humidity between 30% and 50%. We wouldn't suggest the hardwood floor in any areas that would drop below freezing for any extended period of time. Once again, thank you for contacting AHF Products. I hope this information is helpful. If you have further questions please feel free to contact us again by email at ahfproductsupport@ahfproducts.com or by phone at 1-866-243-2726, M-F from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm EST.

Is this LVP
Hi There, Products in our Hydropel collection are engineered hardwood. These products are produced from real wood they are however built from multiple layers like plywood. I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us again by e-mail at ahfproductsupport@ahfproducts.com or by phone at 1-866-243-2726, Monday through Friday from 9am to 4:30pm, EST.

What stair nose match the hydropel hickory? Also can I double hydropel floor when doing the stair? Hydropel size is only 5 inch compare to my Bruce keypad at 7.5
Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to contact us. The stairnose recommended for the Bruce Hydropel Natural Hickory 7/16" x 5" EHWR54L10WR is model number TS4HC520LW. If your local Home Depot can't find that model number in their system they can call their Bruce Order Department for assistance in placing an order. I'm not sure what you mean by "can I double the hydropel floor when doing the stair?". We wouldn't recommend installing 1 plank on top of another. If you mean will you have to use multiple planks when installing on the stairs then yes, it is likely you will need more than 1 plank to complete an install on an individual stair. Once again, thank you for contacting AHF Products. I hope this information is helpful. If you have further questions please feel free to contact us again by email at ahfproductsupport@ahfproducts.com or by phone at 1-866-243-2726, M-F from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm EST.

Do I need to put down an underlayment first before installing the hydropel flooring
Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to contact us. The Bruce Hydropel Medium Gray Oak EKWR54L75WR is designed to be installed as a floating floor. It would be recommended to install a premium floating floor underlayment under the hardwood for both moisture protection and acoustical performance. Once again, thank you for contacting AHF Products. I hope this information is helpful. If you have further questions please feel free to contact us again by email at ahfproductsupport@ahfproducts.com or by phone at 1-866-243-2726, M-F from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm EST.
