Wood Furniture Preservation from Humidity Issues

Control indoor moisture for wooden furniture preservation

Making wooden furniture melds fine-tuning and craftsmanship to make unique pieces. These pieces are built-to-last, but extreme fluctuations in indoor moisture due to seasonal or regional climates can damage your wood furniture. 

A common example is your home's doors. In the summer months of high humidity, your door swells and does not close completely. But during the winter months, that same door shrinks. The same swelling and shrinking that occurs in that door are also happening to your wood furniture. 

Dry indoor air, a common issue during the cold months of winter, sucks the moisture from your wood furniture. This can cause your wood furniture to split or crack. 

In high humidity, your wood swells and eventually can warp and rot. Pests and mold are also threats to your wood furniture. 

Keeping these pieces intact requires maintaining balance with humidity control products from AprilAire.
