        "text": "Acclimatization is the process of allowing LVP planks to adjust to the temperature and humidity of the installation environment before they are laid. This typically involves leaving the unopened boxes of flooring in the room where they will be installed for at least 48 to 72 hours. This step is crucial to prevent the planks from expanding or contracting after installation, which could lead to gaps or buckling. Hometelligent Inc. always adheres to manufacturer-recommended acclimatization periods to ensure the stability and longevity of your new floor, especially important with varying Bay Area climates.",
