Summer floor maintenance common sense "to sweat and moisture" is the key

Recently, several netizens have asked about the proper maintenance of wooden floors during the summer season. With high temperatures and frequent use of air conditioning, the indoor and outdoor temperature fluctuations can be quite extreme. So, what are the key points to keep in mind when maintaining your wooden floor in summer? Let’s take a closer look at the tips provided by Jiuzheng Building Materials Network.

First and foremost, it's important to avoid direct sunlight exposure. Prolonged exposure can cause the wooden floor to fade and reduce its lifespan. Additionally, keep heat sources away from the floor, and avoid directing air conditioning vents directly onto it. Sudden temperature changes can lead to warping or cracking of the wood, which may damage both the floor and surrounding furniture.

Secondly, summer is a time when people tend to sweat more, so it's crucial to prevent direct contact between human sweat and the wooden surface. Prolonged exposure to sweat can erode the finish and weaken the wood over time.

Third, when cleaning, always use a soft, damp cloth and wipe along the grain of the wood. This method helps maintain the floor's appearance and prevents long-term damage. Alternatively, you can wrap a few walnuts in gauze and gently rub them across the floor for a natural polishing effect that enhances the wood's luster.

During hot weather, the moisture inside the wood tends to evaporate, causing the floorboards to shrink. This can result in larger gaps between the planks, and in severe cases, even lead to lifting or cracking. Therefore, it's essential to protect the floor from water damage. Ensure proper ventilation near exterior walls and bathrooms, and when mopping, use a well-wrung-out cloth to avoid scratching the surface.

In summary, with rising temperatures and increased humidity, especially in places like Nanjing where rainy weather has arrived, it's more important than ever to pay attention to floor maintenance. Taking these simple steps can help preserve the beauty and longevity of your wooden floors throughout the summer months.
