Solid wood flooring with underfloor heating is a special type of flooring because it needs to be used in an underfloor heating environment. Therefore, the requirements for the type of wood and the craftsmanship are very high, and extra care should be taken in its daily use and maintenance.
1. Special flooring for underfloor heating environments
Solid wood flooring for underfloor heating refers to solid wood flooring suitable for underfloor heating systems. It's important to note that not all solid wood flooring is suitable for underfloor heating. However, engineered wood flooring and laminate flooring, if they offer superior performance, are also suitable for underfloor heating.
2. Maintain good air circulation and keep the temperature and humidity moderate.
After the solid wood underfloor heating flooring is installed, you can open the doors and windows to maintain air circulation and a suitable indoor temperature and humidity. Excessively high or low temperatures and humidity, or large fluctuations in these conditions, are detrimental to the lifespan of the underfloor heating flooring. Of course, doors and windows should be closed on rainy days.
3. A stepped heating and cooling method should be adopted.
When using solid wood underfloor heating flooring for the first time, pay attention to the temperature rise and fall of the heating system. The temperature rise and fall should not be too fast, but should be gradual. Excessive temperature rise and fall will affect the lifespan of the flooring.
4. Do not place heat-generating objects on the floor surface.
Many families have a misconception when using underfloor heating: they believe that since underfloor heating is warm, it's fine to place heating objects on it. This is not the case. Underfloor heating provides heat from the bottom up and has a special structure and performance characteristics. Placing heating objects on the surface can cause the floor to warp, affecting its appearance and shortening its lifespan.
5. Keep the floor dry and clean.
Solid wood underfloor heating floors should be kept dry and clean during daily use. Stains can be wiped with a damp mop. Special stains require special cleaning methods, but strong acids and alkalis are not recommended.
