Coretec Plus Grande Golden Halo Oak 9" x 82"

COREtec Originals Premium Grande Golden Halo Oak — Blonde Oak 9" Waterproof Plank

Golden Halo Oak is a warm blonde oak-look plank in COREtec's Originals Premium Grande line, a 15 mm WPC vinyl floor with a 30 mil wear layer and attached cork. Grande was previously marketed as COREtec Plus Grande; the extra-long, mixed-length format is unchanged.

Best for: Sunny living rooms, bedrooms and casual coastal or farmhouse interiors.

The Look

In COREtec's words it is a natural, airy tone that brings warmth and openness, like morning coastal light. In practice it reads as a warm blonde oak with a soft golden cast through the grain.

Why Choose Golden Halo Oak?

• Airy blonde tone with a gentle golden warmth
• Subtle grain that keeps the look calm
• 15 mm thickness with a 3 mm cork back
• Float or glue on any grade
• GREENGUARD Gold certified

Installation

Golden Halo Oak installs with an angle/tap click joint for floating floors, or it can be glued down. For radiant-heated subfloors, COREtec requires the floor surface to stay at or below 85°F, at least 1/2" between the heating elements and the flooring, and the heat system running for two weeks before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Golden Halo Oak go over radiant heat? Yes, within COREtec's limits: the operating temperature must not exceed 85°F, the heating components need 1/2" of separation from the floor, and the system should run for two weeks before the install.

Is Golden Halo Oak the same as Goldin Oak? No. They are separate COREtec Grande colors with different SKUs (VV662-05101 for Golden Halo Oak, VV662-04011 for Goldin Oak). Both are light blonde oak looks, so compare samples side by side.

How long are the planks? Grande boards are 9" wide and come in 28", 55" and 82" lengths mixed in each carton.

Is it certified for indoor air quality? Yes. Golden Halo Oak carries GREENGUARD Gold, the certification COREtec shows on every style it sells.

What expansion gap does it need? Leave 1/4" at the walls for floors under 2,500 sq ft and 1/2" for larger installations.
