The floor must be kept dry and clean during using. In general, the moisture content of floor is 8%~13%。 But if installed or use inappropriately, quality problems will occur, such as no anti-moisture treatment in installation process;cleaning with water, salt water or soap water will destroy the lightness of floor;no separation between the washing room floor and living room floor; window curtains are not well put which result in the floor being exposed to the sun then the color faded and floor split up; air conditioner at too low temperature, then the temperature difference will cause expansion or shrinkage and the floor split up. Besides, anti-moisture is a very important technical indicator. Floor with poor anti-moisture features will curl up on the side and be damaged when moisture enters into the floor after "burnt" long time under geothermal. While high qualified floor are made of high density materials which have good anti-moisture features and much lower thickness swelling rate of water absorption than the national standard. Also, special wear layer, decorative paper, balancing layer, the substrate can be well "closed" to ensure better overall moisture resistant flooring.

There is a saying in flooring industry, "30% the floor and 70% the installation", which means the installation determines 70% of the floor quality.Bad experience in using the floor is mostly caused by inapproriate installation.The floor coverings problem has become chronic illness that restricts the use of the floor.

To avoid the unpleasant floor maintenance, the more important thing is to do a good sales job. Professionals told the reporters that before the floor is installed, the staff must do four different aspects of the preparatory work, so that the latter part of the construction process can be greatly enhanced in accuracy and precision, and can effectively detect ground "sand, tide, concave specific degree convex crack "and the five issues. In addition, the staff are also particularly concerned about the flatness of the ground, if the ground is smooth, not bagging the bottom floor; the ground is not wet the floor does not swell, these must be carefully tested.

Floor coverings are not random, but to grasp the "opportune" pavement principle. Professionals said, because of the temperature difference between day and night in the spring, so the tiles on the floor and pavement should be paid attention to moisture and other issues. Therefore, before the wooden floor is installed, it is best to put it at at room temperature 16 ℃ to 18 ℃ for 2 days. In addition, the best time to install the flooring choice in the "opportune" time period. Simply put, the day means sunny weather, it is best to install when 7 days before and after are sunny, no rain; geography is a requirement, not on the ground to dry before installing the floor; and that we must find professional workers you install the floor.

If it's too thick, floor room for maneuver is relatively large, it will be easy to bag after a long time.

Professionals also said that from the point of moisture resistance,  wooden floor is never better than plastic film. Because even for the dry-looking ground, there will be tidal heating when steamed, so geothermal heating required in conjunction with PE damp proof membrane. But also requires proof PE film has a certain thickness and good environmental protection.

It is worth mentioning that, in entering the occasion of the spring and summer high temperatures, formaldehyde emission will be 20-30% higher than usual. But if you buy the  product with high market visibility ,then you don't need to worry about it.
