Wood Floor Care

July 28, 2023

With the right care, your Kahrs wood flooring can stay just as fresh for many years. We are pleased to provide after-sale support for your wood floors, which includes both expert cleaning and maintenance services. The longevity and low maintenance requirements of Kährs Wood and Luxury Tile flooring are only two of their many benefits that they are renowned for.

However, similar to many other items, floors need regular upkeep. The frequency of floor maintenance is subject to variables such as usage, cleanliness, sunlight exposure, etc. An extra sturdy, moisture-resistant, and simple-to-clean surface is the result of more regular maintenance in the first year.

The normal frequency of subsequent maintenance is at least once/twice a year. Remember that areas subjected to greater wear than the rest of the floor can be given localized maintenance. The higher the frequency, the better the results.

Wood is a living material. It is important to take factors such as ambient air humidity, temperature, and cleaning routine into consideration to keep your wood floor looking beautiful. To retain the original durability and beautiful appearance, Kährs wood floors can be easily maintained with a simple cleaning routine using the following signature cleaning products.

Tips to Keep Humidity Between 40-60% and Avoid Condensation

• Keeping the temperature between 65 and 77 degrees Fahrenheit (18 and 24 degrees Celsius).

• Have good airflow at all times. When air conditioners cool, they take water out of the air. If you need to, you can also use fans and dehumidifiers.

• Use air fans when you cook or take a shower.

• Reduce the amount of water that comes into your home.

• Watch out for lines, faucets, cracks, walls, and roofs that leak.

• Fix any leaks right away, and make sure to check on your house often.

• Always clean the floor in the same direction as the wood grain to keep dirt from getting stuck in the grains.

• Use dry methods, like sweeping or a mini mop, to clean your home every day.

• Use Kährs cleaning solutions always for the best results and performance.

• Follow the guidelines carefully for how often and how to clean your wood floors.

• Use the felt floor covers that come with the Kährs Floor Care Kit on your furniture and equipment. This helps a lot in avoiding scratches and dents.

• Support heavy furniture and appliances with gliders or wheels that don’t scratch.

• Slide furniture and equipment slowly across a mat or masonite floor with the smooth side down.

• Place a high-quality doormat at the entry, and place area rugs in places with heavy foot traffic.

• Maintain a regular inspection of your pet’s nails in order to reduce the risk of scratching the wood.

How Can You Tell If Your Humidity Levels Are High?

• Fog and condensation build up on the windows.

• Mold grows on the skirting, walls, floors, and ceilings where there is wetness.

• Low humidity levels can be seen in things like more static electricity, wood that is dry and breaking, and paint that is flaking.

• Use a digital or traditional hygrometer to measure the humidity.

Maintenance Before Going on Vacation

• Set the air conditioners to about 26° Celsius to avoid using too much electricity and to protect your home from humidity and too much heat.

• Turn down the water heater’s setting.

• Turn off the water at the main shut-off valve.
