Jingxian Flooring | How to maintain and clean the wooden flooring at home?

1) Daily dust removal is essential

The wooden floor at home needs regular maintenance and cleaning. Especially in autumn and winter, the dry climate leads to an increase in dust. If not cleaned in a timely manner, moisture can accumulate in the gaps between wooden floors, forming stubborn stains.

So, it is necessary to clean the floor and vacuum in a timely manner! In addition, carpet the entrance entrance entrance to prevent sand and dust from entering the room.

At the same time, the heels of some rough, bulky, and high hardness items can be cushioned with pads to prevent scratches on the surface of the solid wood floor.

(2) Moisture-proof and waterproof

Do not use a mop or soapy water that is still dripping to mop the floor, as it will have a direct impact on the paint surface and the board (such as moisture, mold, deformation, and dull luster). If you really want to use a damp mop to mop the floor, try to sun the mop to 70% dry to prevent moisture from penetrating the floor and causing it to become damp and moldy.

(3) Anti fouling

Corrosive liquids, strong acidic and alkaline substances, such as toilet cleaners and kitchen degreasers

Cannot be used to clean floors; High temperature liquids or objects are prohibited from being placed directly on the surface of wooden floors to avoid damaging the surface.

If it is general dirt left by water-soluble substances, you can first wipe off the floating dust, and then use a soft cloth dipped in thicker tea water to wipe it off. For cleaning agents that do not understand their chemical properties, they should not be used arbitrarily to avoid unnecessary chemical reactions that may cause floor damage.

If you have pets at home, remember to take good care of their excrement, as it can cause alkaline corrosion to the wood, causing discoloration and stains on the floor.

The maintenance and cleaning of wooden flooring should also avoid the following misconceptions:

(1) Neglecting maintenance

Wooden flooring requires regular cleaning and maintenance! If the house is uninhabited, poorly ventilated, uncleaned, and if any issues arise, it may be difficult to maintain it later.

(2) Excessive maintenance

Some companions are particularly fond of cleanliness and repeatedly use a very wet mop to mop the floor multiple times a day, believing that this can keep the floor clean. This behavior is also wrong! Wooden flooring does require maintenance, but it needs to be properly maintained!

A mop that is too wet can cause water to sink into the gaps in the floor; Frequent mopping of the floor has little effect on the painted surface, but it will wash away the surface grease of the wood wax floor.

(3) Alkaline water wiping the floor

When stains appear on wooden floors, some people will use alkaline substances such as soap and water to wipe them, which is also a mistake. Alkaline substances are likely to damage the brightness of the paint on the wooden floor panel, damage the paint film, not only affect aesthetics, but also reduce the service life of the wooden floor.

At the same time, raising some green plants at home to regulate indoor air humidity is also a good way to maintain wooden flooring. We spend some time on the maintenance and cleaning of wooden flooring, which not only makes the home cleaner, but also prolongs the use of wooden flooring
