ANDERSON TUFTEX
Everything You Need to Know
Wheat is an engineered pecan hardwood floor from the Anderson Tuftex Imperial Pecan style (colour 11085). It is real pecan: a 1.2 mm pecan wear layer bonded to a cross-layered engineered core, which keeps the plank flatter and more stable through seasonal humidity changes than solid wood. Each plank is 7.5" wide, in random lengths of 15.74" - 82.67", 1/2" thick, with a smooth surface and UV Aluminum Oxide finish and a micro bevel edge. Anderson Tuftex lists the colour family as natural. Anderson Tuftex approves it for nail, staple, glue or floating installation, above, on and below grade, and over radiant heat. Each box covers 25.77 sq ft; measure your rooms and add about 10% for cuts and waste. It is backed by Anderson Tuftex's published coverage: 50 Year Hardwood Limited Residential Warranty. Choose Wheat for living rooms, bedrooms and main floors where you want the depth and grain of genuine pecan. Please check stock with Word Of Mouth Floors to confirm availability.
Why Choose This Floor?
- Genuine pecan — a real hardwood surface with a 1.2 mm wear layer, not a printed image.
- Engineered stability — the cross-layered core resists the cupping and gapping that solid wood is prone to.
- UV Aluminum Oxide finish with a smooth texture (7% gloss) — applied at the factory, so there is no on-site sanding or finishing.
- Flexible installation — nail, staple, glue or floating; approved above, on and below grade.
- Radiant heat — Anderson Tuftex lists this floor as suitable over radiant heat; follow its installation guidelines.
- GreenGuard Gold Certified — as listed by Anderson Tuftex.
- 50 Year Hardwood Limited Residential Warranty — as published by Anderson Tuftex.
