Carpet Seam Tape Installation

When the carpet is stretched it is pulled where the edges of the tape are attached to the carpet and the two pieces lift to create a peak.
Carpet seam tape installation. Place the carpet pieces to be connected upside down so that the carpet seam tape can be easily placed on the bottom of the carpet. Place a carpet seaming iron under the two pieces of carpet against the carpet seam tape and plug in the iron. If you are replacing a section of already installed carpet just pull it back far enough so that plenty of the undersides are exposed. Seam peaking occurs when the seam is set and then stretching occurs as the installation process is completed.
Position the seaming iron.
