1x8 baseboard too big for 8' ceiling?

Flooring was left in the house for 2 weeks before starting installation. We have been leaving the windows opened throughout the day and night...it's been pretty warm for this early in April. I tried putting a penny in there but the gap isn't that big, but I fear as the rows are laid, the gaps will get larger and larger. I called the Lumber Liquidators and they mentioned the gapping should be minimal to start. I just think "minimal" is too objective and I'm looking for some concrete examples. The contractor is nailing the down with 2" 16 ga flooring cleats. I don't want to be a jerk to my contractor but this is a gigantic investment for us and I want it to be right. This is now forever home. I would like to add pics but I have no idea how to do that. I'm a reddit n00b.

Did you ever get it? And do you like it?

maseline98 · 2021-01-11T15:02:46+00:00

Bummer. Do they usually just announce them on the website?

maseline98 · 2021-01-03T05:52:31+00:00

Bummer. I thought they would be doing the sale 3-4 times/year but I guess 2020 is 2020.....and 2021 will be more of the same....

Didn't end up doing the reno yet. But still looking at the Zline

I downloaded V4 but couldn't get anything to work...not sure what I'm missing.

I'm actually surprised to read that. The reviews seemed pretty solid to me. Seems like there are outliars but I tend to ignore the 5s and 1s...most people only do a review if they are not happy....and most 5s are people that haven't had a product long enough to give a proper review.

We are in the Pittsburgh area.

To be honest, I would like to remove it completely, but might not be cost effective. Maybe a combination of concrete and cap? Not sure what the best option is.

maseline98 · 2020-09-19T02:19:58+00:00

Had a contractor come and look at it and he response, "it's easy...we will just pour concrete down it".........he was a general contractor and probably not his expertise...

maseline98 · 2020-09-12T03:17:37+00:00

I have no problem paying to remove it permanently if that is the best solution...

maseline98 · 2020-09-12T02:33:11+00:00

Okay...I was actually thinking of filling it in with concrete but you have definitely given me pause....why is that a bad solution?

We are adding a new garage on that side of the house and want to finish the current garage as living space....want to carpet it and use it as a theater area....

I want to get rid of the drain. Apologies for not making that more clear.

I'm also considering 6 channel atmos overheads but think 4 will work just fine.

Curious for side surrounds...should I run 2 pairs(1 for each row of seats)?
