Hi

Looking for a smooth transition from Click LVT to carpet was wpondering if I need to lay play and raise the LVT befor laying.  LVT is 6mm think but not sure what the thickness of carpet is underlay would be about 8mm sam as LVT.

 

Has anyone done this and what did they leave?

 

thanks

Better to have carpet higher than any solid floor to prevent a trip hazard as you leave the carpet. Think how far a carpet compresses while standing on it.

so if carpt is 20mm total heigh and LVT is 6 to 8mm would this be OK?

Yes, as you use the space and vacuum etc. you will see the carpet taper down towards the LVT anyway. When first laid you will notice the height difference but that will soon change. 
if you want it less noticeable, get the carpet fitter to taper the underlay or leave it slightly short of the LVT to taper the carpet level
