Climate Maintenance
Care should be taken to control humidity levels within the 30% - 50% range. Hardwood flooring can be affected by
varying levels of
humidity.
Dry Climates: A humidifier is recommended to maintain humidity levels. Wood stoves and electric heat tend to create
very dry
conditions during the winter months this also will cause shrinkage in flooring.
Humid, Wet Climates: By using an air conditioner, heater, or dehumidifier proper humidity levels can be maintained to
prevent
excessive expansion due to high moisture content.
Floor Repair
Very light and small surface scratches can be repaired with a staining “touch up” pen of the appropriate color.
Slightly deeper scratches can be repaired by means of colored putty and or stains. Fill the scratches with the putty. Level
with putty
knife. Wipe off excess putty.
Very deep scratches may require the replacement of the planks
