Hardwood Floor Protection
Protect the Wood Floors In Your Home
Humidity control problems can damage your home's hardwood floors. Wood is hygroscopic meaning that it both reacts to the relative humidity of its surrounding environment to find equilibrium. As your home's relative
humidity fluctuates, your home's hardwood floors can both expand and contract.
In dry air, your hardwood floor splits and cracks since the air is sucking moisture from the material. If your skin is dry, your home's hardwood floors likely are too.
In high humidity, your hardwood floors are prone to rot and warpage. In this instance, the wood is removing the moisture from the air. Over time, the moisture will continue to build causing your hardwood floors to shift.
According to HomeAdvisor, an online referral repair company, the average cost of repairing wood floors is $922, or $3-$6 per sq. ft.
To avoid costly repairs, install a whole-house humidifier and whole-house dehumidifier to keep your hardwood floors protected.

Balancing your home's humidity is a crucial step to protecting your home's hardwood floors and AprilAire has been there since the beginning by introducing the first whole-home humidifier in 1954.
