Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the advantage of the 10mm thickness?
Rhea’s 10mm total thickness delivers exceptional rigidity and a premium underfoot feel that thinner planks cannot match. It also provides superior dimensional stability across temperature and humidity changes.
Q: What makes the Black Series the flagship of the eTerra lineup?
The Black Series uses an advanced eSPC skeleton core with stabilizing layers and the highest-definition Touch of Nature EIR texture — delivering superior rigidity, sound deadening, and visual realism.
Q: Can this floor handle heavy furniture?
Yes. Rhea’s dense eSPC core resists compression from heavy furniture. Use furniture pads under legs and castors to prevent surface indentation over time.
Q: Is this floor compatible with radiant heat?
Rhea is compatible with radiant heat systems up to 80°F surface temperature. Follow manufacturer guidelines for heated subfloor systems during installation.
Q: Is this flooring 100% waterproof?
Rhea is built on a 100% waterproof SPC rigid core. It will not swell, warp, buckle, or delaminate from water exposure — safe for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms.
