There is something that you do need to know about hardwood flooring of any kind. That is the relationship between Hardwood and humidity. The number one misunderstood rule to keeping your hardwood floor in continued great shape is keeping your humidity level in your home between 30% – 60%. I live in Stevens Point, WI where the summers are warm & humid and the winters are cold & dry. You need to take steps to monitor your home humidity levels and take appropriate steps to raise or lower your humidity levels accordinly. First, purchase a humidity gauge and check it regularly. Go to your local hardware store or online at Amazon.com. Do this and your hardwood floor will thank you for it.
