What type of flooring are you using, solid, semi solid or laminate. Wide plank flooring in solid material may be unwise to float, depending on whether you are using quarter sawn solid material, wide solid material may have a tendency to cup. Post your query on the woodcraft forum if you fail to get an answer here
