JAYPRO FLOOR SLEEVE INSTALLATION FOR WOOD FLOOR OVER
CONCRETE- SYNTHETIC FLOOR CONCRETE- TILE FLOOR OVER CONCRETE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1) Locate floor sleeves 36’ apart (center-to-center).
2) Drill ¼” test hole to determine how far concrete is under floor (not necessary with
floor directly on concrete).
3) Using floor sleeve as a guide (turn sleeve assembly upside down) trace an outline
of the top plate on the floor.
4) Inside of the outline, cut the floor out to within 1/2” of the outside perimeter of
the outline drawn on the floor. (Hole saw recommended).
5) With wood floor cut open it must be decided how to cut into the concrete. We
recommend a 6” core drill. The concrete will have; no doubt; wire mesh. Obtain
core drill meant to cut steel and concrete at the same time. Our experience
indicates that through a 4”-5” slab the average cutting time with proper drill is 15-
20 minutes.
Optionally an electric or air powered rotary hammer drill can be utilized to drill a
series of 1” holes in a circular pattern and remove the core created by this method.
The disadvantages are noise and dust, but this is effective if there is no core drill
available.
6) Once the hole is through the concrete it is then necessary to remove the subsoil to
a minimum depth of 16” and as far as your hand and arm will allow (from elbow
to fingertips is sufficient). This is the most time consuming part of installation
since it must be done manually. The finished hole will be something resembling
an upside down mushroom. Refer to “Subfloor Preparation” illustration for
additional details.
