FAQs
What colours does NFD Tempess come in?
Tempess is available in 13 timber-look colours: Brighton Oak, Dawn Oak, Mature Oak, Meadow Blackbutt, Merryland Oak, Moonlight Oak, Nickle Oak, Odyssey Tassie Oak, Rainy Oak, Riverstone, Tamsyn Oak and Western Spotted Gum — spanning warm oaks, greys, greige and native Australian timbers.
Is NFD Tempess waterproof?
NFD Tempess is designed to withstand everyday household spills and moisture, making it suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial environments. While the product offers excellent water resistance, no floor should be regarded as completely waterproof, as water can enter through joins, edges and other installation points. Spills should be cleaned promptly and installation should be completed in accordance with NFD’s guidelines.
What is a wear layer and why does the 0.5mm matter?
The wear layer is the clear protective top coat that resists scratches, scuffs and daily traffic. At 0.5mm, Tempess carries a commercial-grade wear layer, thicker than typical residential vinyl, so it stands up to both homes and light commercial spaces.
How is NFD Tempess installed?
Tempess is a glue-down vinyl plank, bonded directly to a properly prepared subfloor. Glue-down gives a stable, flat, quiet floor ideal for high-traffic areas. Professional installation is recommended to ensure subfloor preparation and adhesive selection are correct.
Can Tempess be used in commercial spaces?
Yes. With its 4.5mm build and 0.5mm commercial-grade wear layer, Tempess is rated for residential and light commercial use, offices, retail and hospitality fit-outs, as well as homes.
Is luxury vinyl plank suitable over underfloor heating?
Most NFD luxury vinyl planks are compatible with underfloor heating within set temperature limits. Confirm the maximum surface temperature and installation requirements in NFD’s documentation before installing over a heated subfloor.
How do I clean and maintain Tempess?
Tempess is low maintenance, regular sweeping or vacuuming and occasional damp mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner is all that’s needed. Avoid harsh abrasives or steam mops. Refer to the NFD LVT Maintenance Guide for full care advice.
