Billowed Ceiling Tile Installation
1. Start by putting the first panel in (figure A).
2. Once the panel is in place, slide the diffusion panel in over the top with the shiny side up (figure B).
3. Continue this, working the panels into place followed by the diffusion panel.
4. When you get to the last panel, it may be a little tricky to get into place. The panels have a little flexibility, so you can maneuver the last panel in (figure C).
Floor Tile Installation
1. Start by sweeping your concrete floor, so the carpet squares will have no problem sticking.
2. Use a chalk line to make a registration mark, where you will line up the edge of the carpet.
3. Start at the room's edge, peel off the carpet tape tags off the back of the tiles and begin applying them to the floor (figure D).
4. Use the different color tiles to define different areas and add dimension (figure E).
5. Once all the tiles are down, use a nail gun to attach base molding where the floor meets the wall.
6. To fit carpet tiles around angles or leftover space, measure the space of the wall (figure F).
7. Cut the tiles from the back using a framing square and a utility knife.
