Description

Nightfall PI20040 — Paradigm Insignia 20MIL SPC, 6mm, 7-inch

Wet zones, high traffic, active households — Nightfall was engineered for them. Weathered grey-brown with pronounced cathedral grain with natural knots and subtle character marks defines the look; 6mm SPC with a 20 mil wear layer defines the performance. 7-inch by 48-inch planks float over most existing hard surfaces with an angle-tap click — no adhesive required. The 100% waterproof core handles the water that sinks hardwood. On display now at Kapriz Hardwood Floors in Santa Clara, CA.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much expansion gap is needed?
Nightfall requires a 1/4-inch expansion gap at all walls, fixed cabinets, and pipes. This gap lets the SPC planks flex with minor temperature changes without buckling or gapping.
How do I get this flooring?
You can pick up your order at our Santa Clara showroom at 891 Laurelwood Rd, Suite 101, or we deliver to homes within a 60-mile radius of Santa Clara. We also ship nationwide. Call or text us to arrange pickup, delivery, or shipping for your Nightfall order.
What kind of subfloor do I need?
Nightfall installs over most subfloors — plywood, OSB, concrete, tile, or even existing vinyl. The subfloor must be flat to within 3/16 inch over 10 feet and structurally sound.
What is the cork underlayment for?
Nightfall comes with a pre-attached cork underlayment that cushions every step, dampens sound transmission between floors, and acts as a thermal barrier — no separate underlayment purchase required.
Is this flooring 100% waterproof?
Nightfall is built on a 100% waterproof SPC (Solid Polymer Core) rigid core. It will not swell, warp, buckle, or delaminate from water or moisture exposure — making it safe for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms.
Where can I see this flooring in person?
