Cloud 9 Underlay which way up?
 
I guess the "Cloud 9" writing should be uppermost after it has been laid but
can't find anywhere to confirm this?
Anyone know for definite?

When I had mine laid 3 years ago the 'coulored' face was uppermost. As the
brown face on your picture is similar to ''waffle' underlay I presume my
carpet fitters laid it correctly, after all they do it every day and I
don't!

That should of course say coloured!

Thanks John but I'm not really sure what side up you mean when you say
coloured face uppermost?

The brown in the picture where it says "cloud" is actually backing paper as
opposed to waffle.
It's the same backing paper on waffle underlay and on waffle underlay it
says "this side up" so that's why I presumed looking at the picture it
should be "cloud" facing up!

Well I laid mine cloud up, but that does mean you can't just unroll it
into position. The carpet fitter did not comment on it, either.

Thanks John.

I've only laid mine out but when walking over it there seems to be a
crunching noise. Did you notice anything similar with yours?

You get a slight rustle from the backing paper / plastic film on the
face of it - but you can't hear that when the carpet is down.

If it's any consolation Brian, the NS&I website sorts the
premium bond winners using the same 'algorithm' !!.

eg, look at high value winners, click on 'date purchased'
and you get this :-


£5,000 68GP030231 £40,000 Dorset £2,000 Sep-96
£100,000 312DH340007 £20,000 Hants&IoW £20,000 Sep-17
£10,000 310VJ799932 £20,000 Cheshire £18,500 Sep-17
