Answer This Question
A: Hello! When it comes to padding, the best option will depend on the setting in which it will be installed. For a residential setting, the cushion must meet FHA/HUD requirements, a minimum density of five (5) pounds per cubic foot. The thickness should be a minimum of ⅜ inch and a maximum of ½ inch. If you are installing the Main Rail carpet, which is a 26-ounce level loop carpet, it is recommended that you use a minimum density of eight (8) pounds per cubic foot. The thickness should be no less than ¼ inch and no more than ⅜ inch.
On the other hand, if you are installing the padding in a commercial setting, you should consider using a flat rubber or urethane foam padding that does not exceed 3/8 inch in thickness and has a minimum density of 16 pounds. A 1/4-inch pad is more desirable if it meets the density requirement. Felted underlays - synthetic fiber cushion, hair and jute underlays should be at least 28 oz. In weight and should not exceed 3/8” in thickness.
It is crucial to choose the right padding for your carpet to ensure that it lasts longer and provides the necessary comfort. Thank you, Sam.
