Today, wooden flooring has become the first choice for many consumers to decorate flooring materials. However, some consumers have used wooden floors for less than two or three years and will need to update them. The wooden floors in some consumers' homes are still as bright as after seven or eight years. What is the reason for such a big gap? On the basis of scientific pavement, correct and adequate maintenance of the floor is a key to determining the life of the wooden floor. So, how to carry out scientific and perfect maintenance of the wooden floor in the home? If you do the maintenance work of the wooden floor, you should grasp both the summer heat and the moisture. Here's how to choose wood floors and maintenance techniques for wood floors.
The wooden floor has good elasticity, no dust, easy to clean, no moisture regain, small heat storage coefficient, and is often used in the living room and bedroom. The types of wood flooring are: solid wood flooring, solid wood composite flooring, laminate flooring, etc.
1. Solid wood floor:
Solid wood flooring is a floor block made of wood without joining together or processing. It has the advantages of warmth and softness, natural and pleasant, sound insulation and good foot feel.
â‘ Classification of solid wood flooring
â… According to the different processing shapes, it can be divided into flat-mouthed floor (flat-joined wooden floor) and groove-shaped floor (tenon jointed wooden floor).
â…¡According to different processing methods, it can be divided into parquet floor and vertical timber board.
â‘¡Identification of solid wood
â… Texture: It is the standard for judging the quality of the floor. Regular texture is beautiful and generous. Do not choose the floor with disordered texture.
â…¡ Color: High-quality solid wood flooring should have natural tones, clear wood grain, and the material is visible to the naked eye. If the color of the floor surface is deep and the paint layer is thick, it may be intentional to cover the surface defects of the floor, especially when the floor is six-sided sealing paint.
â…¢ Cracks: Cracks in the middle and low-end floors are inevitable, but too large is not good. Some cracks are generated between the texture of the wood. This crack does not extend and can be used with confidence. However, some cracks penetrate the texture, so you must not buy it, because these cracks will extend, which is very negative for the future. influences.
Ⅳ node: the node scar, which can be divided into live and dead nodes. As a natural product, it is impossible to have no knots. The reasonable distribution of live knots will make wood products more beautiful. Premium products are not allowed to have defective knuckles. The state stipulates that all living knuckles with a diameter of ≤3mm and dead knuckles with a diameter of ≤2mm that do not fall off and are very dense are not considered defective knuckles.
In addition, some floors are made of tree core materials and materials close to the bark, beware of merchants raising grade prices. Some floors use wood that has been eaten by a large number of insects, so many insect eyes are left. The wood of this floor is not very good, so you need to be careful when buying.
â‘¢The choice of solid wood flooring
â… When selecting materials, the floor conditions of the living room should be considered. For example, the ground floor of a bungalow or building, because of direct contact with the ground and high humidity, should choose the floors of catalpa, red pine, and white pine, because these three types of wood are not easy to deform after tide.
â…¡Due to the different geographical locations of cities across the country, the local equilibrium moisture content is different. When choosing, you should consult a professional salesperson so that you can buy a floor with a moisture content equal to the current equilibrium moisture content (Beijing area moisture content) At around 11%).
2. Solid wood composite floor:
The base material of the solid wood composite floor is solid wood, so other than formaldehyde emission, the other is similar to the choice of solid wood flooring.
The amount of formaldehyde released by China ’s national standard stipulates that no more than 1.5mg / L is in line with national standards. You can obtain test data from the operator, or you can open one of the packing boxes, take out the floor, put your nose close to the floor, and smell it. A strong pungent smell of formaldehyde, the formaldehyde concentration in the air has exceeded the standard.
3. Laminate flooring
Reinforced composite wood flooring is based on high and medium density fiberboard, and the surface is made of wear-resistant layer, decorative paper, etc. As a new energy-saving floor covering material, it has unique advantages. First of all, the main raw materials for the laminate wood flooring come from artificial fast-growing forests, trail forests, and branches. From the perspective of protecting forest resources, the pavement is in line with human overheating and strengthening treatment, which overcomes the dry shrinkage and wet expansion of the solid wood factory floor. The weakness, size stability is also stronger than the latter; its three-strength composite wood floor pattern, color, variety, good simulation, good size; fourth, the reinforced composite wood floor structure design is reasonable, easy and fast installation; Second, the reinforced composite wood flooring does not require surface treatment such as waxing and polishing, and is easy to maintain and easy to clean; sixth, its surface finish and wear resistance are much higher than solid wood flooring.
Pay attention to the following points when choosing laminate flooring:
â‘ Formaldehyde emission
China's national standard stipulates that no more than 1.5mg / L meets national standards
â‘¡ Wear-resistant revolutions
The wear resistance of household composite floors should be ≥ 6000 rpm, and public places should be ≥ 10,000 rpm, otherwise, different degrees of damage may occur after 1-3 years of use.
â‘¢Color variety
It is the ultimate goal to choose the color of your custom within an acceptable price, and pay attention to the defects in the pattern when inspecting.
Wood floor maintenance tips

2. Keep the floor dry and clean. Wipe the floor with wringed soft and wet towels. In dry areas in the north, the floor can be wiped with a damp cloth in dry seasons. In areas with a humid climate in the south, it is not advisable to wipe the floor with a mop or directly wash with water.
