While the Mohawk Elite underlayment is designed for reliable performance, consider the following if issues arise during installation:
- Seam Adhesion: If the pre-taped seams do not adhere properly, ensure the surfaces are clean and dry before pressing. Apply firm, even pressure along the entire seam. If creases in the underlayment prevent a tight seal, carefully smooth them out or consider using additional moisture-resistant tape over the seam for reinforcement.

- Проверка на производот: Always inspect the underlayment for any manufacturing defects or damage before installation. Do not install damaged material.
