NORCROSS, GA, September 17, 2012 (Press-News.org) Atlanta Hardwood Flooring, an Atlanta-based flooring company, encourages homeowners to avoid unnecessary floor swelling and damage during the humid summer months. Humidity is one of the leading causes of flooring damage, and this damage can be avoided by installing a dehumidifier wherever you have hardwood flooring.
Homeowners invest in Atlanta hardwood flooring, not just for the aesthetic look, but for its durability. Most hardwood flooring in Atlanta can last for decades, so long as it is properly maintained. However, humidity can ruin the look and permanence of hardwood flooring.
"Wood is porous and naturally swells with high levels of humidity," states PJ Hart, founder of Atlanta Hardwood Flooring. "Basically, the wood absorbs the moisture in the air and swells, which can cause cracking, displacement, and other damage. Installing a dehumidifier in rooms with hardwood flooring can reduce the damage done by humidity by removing moisture from the air."
Hardwood flooring in Atlanta can be exposed to many different types of temperatures and weather conditions, which can create spaces in between the panels. In the summer, the boards will typically swell with moisture, and then contract in the colder winter months, leaving space between the panels for more moisture the next year. These tiny spaces can allow humidity to seep between and beneath the boards, causing irreparable damage.
A dehumidifier filters air and removes the moisture from it, which helps keeps hardwood flooring in Atlanta from swelling. Dehumidifiers can save homeowners money by reducing the damage caused by moisture, and they can also help maintain the look of the flooring panels so that the Atlanta hardwood flooring can last decades, instead of years.
