Over the past century plus, Horner’s commitment to quality of both product and services has been demonstrated most importantly by our relationships. These include providing the NBA All Star Floor for 26 years in a row, 20 plus years of providing special event flooring for the NCAA, Olympics Games and Common Wealth Games. Our track record of over 11,000 floors installed across the United States since 1980 alone continues to secure Horner’s place as the leader in the sports flooring industry.

Horner Flooring Company has long been an ecological leader within the sports flooring industry. It was one of the first manufacturing mills to advocate the benefits of 25/32" flooring over the previously-used industry standard of 33/32" flooring Now it’s the first to offer an extended wear life 25/32" product with the introduction of its Long Life™ (L2) Flooring product. Horner’s Long Life™ Flooring offers the ecological, cost savings and availability benefits of standard 25/32" product but with the extended wear life of 33/32" flooring. Long Life™ Flooring will be offered in maple with other products available upon request.

LEED - Green Building Applicability Horner’s Long Life™ product is an excellent candidate to be submitted for a LEED Innovation & Design Process Credit, as it embodies the credit’s stated goal to recognize new technologies for their innovative building features and sustainable building techniques not currently addressed by existing LEED Credits. Horner’s Long Life™ Flooring is more ecologically sound as it minimizes wood waste when a floor has reached maximum wear depth. This is accomplished by shifting the tongue and groove assembly down, resulting in a higher proportion of flooring thickness being dedicated to wear depth. Less lumber is consumed for 25/32" product, regardless of wear depth, than is consumed for 33/32" product.

Availbility With ever-increasing sawmill focus being placed upon 4/4" roughcut lumber, readily obtaining 5/4" lumber in a timely manner to produce 33/32" flooring has become tenuous at best.

Structural Stability Horner’s Long Life™ 25/32" product has the same structural strength and dimensional stability required of regular 25/32" flooring – only the tongue and groove profile has changed.

Application Long Life™ Flooring can be used over any Horner system utilizing at least one single layer of 15/32" plywood or 7/16" OSB or other manufacturer approved subfloor.

Install padded bottom layer of 4' x 8' (122cm x 244cm) sheets at a 45 angle across the long dimension of the finish floor, leaving a minimum 1/4" (6mm) expansion space between adjoining sheets. 3. Install top layer of 4' x 8' (122cm x 244cm) sheets at a 90o angle to the first layer, again leaving a minimum 1/4" (6mm) expansion space between adjoining sheets. Stagger sheets and joints such that no joint in the upper layer falls over a joint in the lower layer. OPTION: increase spacing and drill for R-II restraint installation if so specified. C. Parquet Preparation 1. Locate starting point either by centering off a door, a special focal point in the area, or center of area itself. o 2. Adjust center lines so they are perpendicular (90 ) to each other. This can be most easily accomplished by measuring along one line three (3) feet (91cm) (or a multiple of three feet) and striking on the line itself. Measure four (4) feet (122cm) (or multiples thereof) along the second line and strike a mark. A line connecting these two (2) points should measure exactly five (5) feet o (152cm) (or multiple selected). Adjust lines to form a 3-4-5 triangle -- this assures the 90 relationship. After lines are squared, drop chalk lines every thirty-three (33) inches (838mm).

HORNER MULTISPORT ULTRA SYSTEM

Page 3 of 3

Layout 1. Use Bostik Best Adhesive over subfloor. 2.

Install MultiSport units within the grid formed by the chalk lines. Units should be installed with hairline expansion spacing around the perimeter of each unit when installed in an alternating square manner. When installing in a unidirectional or parallel pattern it is only necessary to include the hairline spacing along the sides of each unit, as maple does not shrink or swell appreciably in the grain direction.

Best wetting is obtained when product is installed immediately into adhesive. If more tack is needed, the freshly troweled adhesive can be allowed to remain open for up to one hour before installing MultiSport units. This will assist in keeping the units from sliding.

A minimum expansion space of 1Â˝" (38mm) should be allowed around the perimeter and all vertical obstructions.

MultiSport should be rolled with a 150 pound (68kg) floor roller within 24 hours after installation.

Inspect entire area of floor to insure that surface is acceptable for finishing, completely free from sanding dust and perfectly clean. B. Apply seal and finish per finish manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s instructions. 1. Apply two (2) coats of seal and two (2) coats of finish. C. Buff and clean floor between each coat or as necessary. D. Paint game lines as shown on drawings, between seal coats. E. Game line paint shall be compatible with finish. 3.5 BASE INSTALLATION A.

Install Vent Cove base, mitering inside corners and anchoring to walls with base cement or screws and anchors.

CushionCourt™ Series

Recycled Padded Polyurethane

RECYCLED, PADDED POLYURETHANE MULTI-FUNCTION SPORTS FLOOR SYSTEMS

CushionCourt™ 3000 The standard CushionCourt system is the ultimate in multi-function performance. While providing the shock absorption and frictional characteristics of traditional wood floors, it allows end users to utilize their floors for a much broader spectrum of activities. It would not be uncommon to find CushionCourt floors in use as food service areas/cafetoriums, stage and assembly, trade show, and many other non-athletic activity areas. Available in shock absorption levels ranging from 15% to 35%, CushionCourt provides great participant safety and ergonomic comfort while providing facility owners and managers with great versatility.

reNew & TopOff The way to make any CushionCourt™ system last the life of the building is to renovate it with a reNew system of new 2mm pour and fresh top-coat. If the existing floor has minimal damage, only the top-coat is needed by applying the TopOff system. Depending on what is most appropriate for the particular floor, either system will extend the life of the floor for as long as the building is standing.

CushionCourt TRACK tion Whenever high grip is needed and where rotational characteristics are minimized, TRACKtion is the floor of choice. Typically seen in non-spike, track applications, TRACKtion will reduce slipping and will provide maximum lineal control. Ideal for casual running/jogging tracks

CushionCourt TRACK & FIELD The Track & Field version of CusionCourt represents the pinnacle of pointelastic performance. It provides GPS type shock absorption, Olympic performance and expands on the standard CushionCourt 3000 versatility. All of the standard athletic and multi-function uses can be handles with ease. CushionCourt Track & Field technology can routinely handle spike traffic (for track meets), free-weights, and many other high-abuse situations. When world-class performance is required, CushionCourt Track & Field delivers.

CushionCourt™ GPS I & II The GPS system takes multi-function to the next level by providing a DIN-certified system with all the benefits of the standard CushionCourt™ 3000 systems. Shock absorption increases to either 45% or 52%, depending on style of system. GPS is the ultimate way to protect small children, elderly, and million-dollar athletes while still keeping budget and multi-function characteristics in line.

CushionCourt Ultra/Combination Systems The ultimate wood/synthetic system – Ultra features the best of both worlds by combining all the best features of area-elastic floors and point-elastic floors into one system that provides the end user with unparalleled comfort, safety and performance. The Ultra is typically constructed of a Horner SAFE™ subfloor and topped by one of the CushionCourt™ systems. AREA-ELASTIC systems are great for reducing muscular and skeletal injuries, particularly over the long term when repetitive motion is involved. For example, when training for basketball or other court-type activities, drills are performed repetitively in order to develop skills and improve performance. Area elastic systems help reduce injuries associated with these repeated motions. POINT-ELASTIC systems provide protection for immediate injuries such as impacts associated with heads, elbows, and knees – by providing a pillow-like effect when the head, elbow or knee impacts the floor. In addition, these effects are provided without any appreciable loss in performance of the floor in that ball-bounce and frictional rotation characteristics are similar to classic wood floors. CushionCourt Ultra™ is a DIN system that will provide the most complete comfort, safety and performance for all levels of athletes from the NBA, to the weekend warrior, to your little champ.

“Very few surfaces provide Olympic level speed and cushioning suitable for everyday training. The new Olymp-XX track surface by Horner Sports Flooring is just that. It is a fast surface while still providing the forgiveness needed for everyday training. If I had trained and competed on Olymp-XX™ throughout my entire running career, who knows how many more years I could have stayed at my peak. I would recommend Olymp-XX™ track surface to any coach who wants to achieve the best performance from their athletes, while minimizing the effect of long-term degenerative injuries. “

Maintaining Your

Wood Sports Floor

To be in compliance with warranty conditions it is the responsibility of the facility owner/managers to maintain their Horner floor under the recommendations outlined in floor specifications and maintenance instructions. Performance and durability are best “maintained” by proper control of relative humidity and temperature. Areas containing wood flooring perform best by adequately providing air circulation by mechanical or natural means. Temperature and humidity must be fully functional and monitored year round.

Sports Vs. Civic Non Sport Use Your wood sports floor is designed to take the rigors of multiple sports activities. In addition, non-sports activities may be an essential part of your facilities usage. Given this, Horner Flooring recommends that your care and maintenance program be designed to accommodate other activities. Please consult Horner Flooring and your local representative to help in designing a maintenance system for all your uses.

Note: Different geographical regions may require varied degrees of control. Please consult your HVAC provider or your local Horner Flooring Representative for more information.

USE IT… BUT DON’T ABUSE IT!

Floor Care Essentials Maintenance Products Horner Flooring recommends that before any floor care or refinishing products are used, a full review is done with your installation/maintenance professional recommended and certified by Horner Flooring. There are a lot of products – some of which work better than others.

Excessive expansion or shrinkage in your floor caused by environmental conditions which exceed normal ranges are not the responsibility of Horner Sports Flooring and are not covered by the warranty. Please review with building/facility managers and personnel.

Dust Mopping

Wet Tacking

Monthly and Quarterly Floor Care Your maple floor should be scrubbed and treated with an approved floor cleaner. If an auto scrubber is used, make sure proper training and performance is maintained. Consult Horner Flooring or your certified representative for proper equipment and product usage. Yearly Floor Care Horner Sports Flooring recommends that your maple floor be cleaned, screened and recoated annually with an approved finish. Your warranty may be affected by product and contractor usage. Please consult your warranty and Horner Sports Flooring Representative before this procedure. Please see Yearly/Restorative Coating section. Floor Stain Prevention In the case of spills, be sure to wipe with damp cloth immediately. Use a soft cloth or towel. Note: Be sure that any wet areas are cleaned and dried immediately.

Shoe Mark Removal

Gum Removal

Damage from Water/Moisture Water or excessive moisture is the main item that can cause damage to your floor. Wood is a hygroscopic material that nature intends to expand and contract under normal conditions. This is by retention and release of moisture within the woods cell structure. Tightening/Cupping If cupping is observed in your wood floor, immediate lowering of relative humidity and introduction of a steady air flow is recommended. This will lower the moisture content in the wood floor system. Contact your authorized floor contractor or Horner Sports Flooring. If cupping is localized it is best to determine the cause of the moisture. Never sand a cupped floor without consultation with a professional and properly preparing the facility.

Questions? Clarifications?

Shoe Mark Removal and Prevention Shoe marks can be removed with an approved floor cleaner. Different finishes will use different cleaners. Consult your installation and floor care professional for best products. To remove shoe marks: • Rub the mark with a tennis ball attached to a pole or broom handle. (slit the ball and press onto the handle) • Rag dampened in mineral spirits (oil based finishes only). • Red scrub pad with recommended cleaner. Prevent shoe marks by monitoring and recommending only non marking shoes to be allowed on the playing surface. Gum and Tar Removal Removal of gum, tar or adhesives is accomplished by using a plastic scraper and rubbing the area with Mineral Spirits. Also using an ice pack or freeze-it spray to harden the gum or adhesive and then scraping it off with a plastic scraper will work as well. Wipe areas with soft dry cloth towel when removal is complete.

Ventilation, Moisture, Temperature Your hardwood maple floor system is designed to withstand normal variations in humidity and temperature. A fully functional HVAC system providing proper ventilation (air movement) will prevent changes in the floor systems shape and appearance. The HVAC system must be adjusted to maintain room temperatures between 55-80°F. If during high humidity outdoor periods the space gains humidity in excess of 55% immediate air movement and exhaust of moisture laden air must be accomplished. During warm humid seasons regular inspections of the space and floor should be conducted. Please consult the facilities HVAC provider so that these recommendations and requirements are fully understood. Better air circulation can be achieved if interior doors remain open and the air circulation system is operating. If humidity levels in the facility drop below 35% (geographically sensitive) Horner Sports Flooring recommends that humidity be introduced into the space to avoid excessive shrinkage.

Daily Floor Care To protect the finish, appearance and performance of your floor, it’s imperative that daily sweeping/mopping of your floor is conducted. Dust, dirt and debris are best removed with the recommended mop and floor cleaner. Proper daily cleaning maintains the correct surface friction and athletic performance characteristics by reducing slips and inconsistent stops. DON’T JUST PUSH THE DUST……..REMOVE THE DUST! Entrance/Walk-off Mats Depending on the outside areas specific to your floor, catching dirt and dust before it gets on the floor is one of the best ways to extend the appearance and performance of the wood floor. Placing walk-off and entrance mats designed to catch dirt and grit in heavy traffic areas helps protect the floor. Horner Flooring recommends placing mats directly outside or at the entrances of the floor. Regular cleaning and vacuuming of mats will ensure best results.

1-800-482-1180 www.hornerflooring.com.

Poly-Based Spill Clean-up

Water-Based Spill Clean-up

Excessive Gaps (Cracks Between Floor Boards) Your floor may have intermittent “gaps” or internal expansion provision built into the system during installation. This is to allow for normal expansion and contraction that occur throughout the seasons. Depending on specific site and seasonal conditions at the time of the installation varying degrees of built-in provisions will occur. These are normal and questions concerning these should be directed to your authorized installation contractor. Excessive gaps occur due to low humidity levels or excessive dryness in the facility. This can be remedied by introducing higher humidity/moisture laden air into the space. Contract your floor care professional or Horner Sports Flooring for other corrective measures. Moisture Exposure Prevention Some items to watch for: • Abnormal dampness/condensation • Exterior door thresholds and window seals need to be weather tight • Ceiling or pipe/drain leaks must be corrected immediately • Excessive water from foot traffic should be dried or corrected immediately • Monitor relative humidity levels regularly • Roof drains should be kept clear and drain away from the building • Report any abnormal visual or measurement (temp/RH) to building manager Expansion Joints Your floor has designed-in expansion joints. Never block or obstruct any expansion joints at the perimeter or vertical obstructions (i.e. columns, game inserts, bleachers). Bleacher Systems Be certain that your floor is designed to take rolling and point loads that the bleachers will place on the floor system. Bleacher wheels should be designed for wood floors. Regular cleaning behind and beneath bleachers will prevent undue wear and unsightly marring and scratching of the floor.

Yearly/Regular Restorative Coating Horner Sports Flooring recommends that your maple floor be cleaned, screened and recoated annually with an approved finish. Your warranty may be affected by product and contractor usage. Please consult your warranty and Horner Sports Flooring Representative before this procedure. Depending on daily maintenance, traffic and usage, your floor may require a more aggressive recoating program. Horner Flooring recommends the use of an approved maintenance contractor. Proper scheduling and dry/cure time is essential to the finishes performance. Products vary greatly and overall safety and performance of your floor can be adversely affected if incompatible finishes and products are used. Good workmanship by a professional properly coordinated with the facility staff will make for low life cycle costs as well as other savings. Contact Horner with any questions or if you are in need of any recommendations.
