terri.moberly@yahoo.com Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Good morning. We have a 2005 Monaco Diplomat DST 40 ft. We are considering putting down luxury vinyl planks (Smartcore from Lowe’s) everywhere but the bedroom and back bathroom. Then, of course, we thought about expanding the project to add heat to the floors. Has anyone done this and how difficult was it? We aren’t interested using it as a replacement for our current heating system for the coach but more just to warm up the floor a bit on those chilly mornings.

Ernie Ekberg Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Have you thought about engineered wood? When a floor gets scratched, they all do, engineered wood can be fixed with a little stain- the vinyl material has to be replaced.

hanggiloren Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I did engineered wood flooring throughout. Used the best seven layered flooring I could find and had some ex Monaco employees in Eugene, OR do the installation. Make sure you get quality flooring with the thickest top layer (veneer) available. Some sections are glued to the floor, other sections are floated. Done correctly the flooring is amazing. Not cheap though. Already have Aqua Hot so just needed the floors. Loren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie Ekberg Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 It seems there is a trend to get the cheapest material and hope that it lasts. These coaches demand a better product IMO. Ernie Ekberg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
