On the surface, solid wood flooring, wood flooring, laminate flooring is difficult to distinguish, which also caused some distress to consumers at the time of purchase. In fact, solid wood flooring is natural wood are dried, processed form of surface decoration materials, that is processed into solid wood floor directly. Parquet is staggered by different species of laminated sheets, to some extent overcome the shortcomings of solid wood flooring swelling shrinkage, good dimensional stability, and preserves the natural wood grain of solid wood flooring and comfortable foot sense.
Laminate flooring is the wear layer, decorative layer, a base layer, a balance layer, this floor is made from wood chips base, then attach a wear-resistant paper, decorative paper, waterproof paper, and ultimately constitute the laminate flooring, has many varieties, hard texture, not easily deformed, fire resistant, cheap, and other advantages, the decoration is also often chosen consumers.
When consumers buy laminate flooring, the most important is to look at the composition of the floor base, in general, light in color, texture and delicate, wood fiber, non-irritating odor flooring, laminate flooring can be judged. Meanwhile, since the advantage of laminate flooring wear with fire, so the purchase can be a lit cigarette on strengthening the flooring to see whether the cracks, dark spots, bubbling, it means that this is not laminate flooring, and has a good flame retardancy.
Optional: product density not less than 8 mm
The purchase, the first thing to consider strengthening performance flooring is to be temporary or permanent, in the laying will not cause damage to the rest of the houses, but also consider the budget.
When you purchase, to see whether the density of the product is less than 0.8g / cm, if less than 8 mm, the floor is too thin will affect the firmness, will be deformed after long use, the international standard is 8 mm. Depends on the formaldehyde emission is not higher than 9 mm / 100 g, or may be leaned smell the odor, these methods can distinguish whether the floor is poisonous.
In addition, if observed mainly laminate flooring surface gloss uniformity, the pattern is symmetrical, if there is white, stain, no damage the interface is neat, if slightly jagged cracks. At the same time, depends on whether the floor moisture-proof measures, whether there are special moisture-proof pad, with or without a thick layer of moisture, whether a professional waterproof glue, which will affect the strengthening moisture resistant flooring.
The last point is to understand the after-sales service and thoughtful but not only fully reflects the strength of enterprises, it is an important part of the quality of products to consumers at ease, peace of mind to use the product played a pivotal role. At the time of purchase, the dealer also keep staff clearly confirmed, including aftermarket range, life time and the like.
Maintenance: Do not wax or sanded
Since laminate flooring has a wear-resistant, moisture and other characteristics, in terms of maintenance, easier than other types of flooring. In everyday use, as long as the attention to some details, it can greatly extend the service life of reinforced composite flooring.
When using laminate flooring, keep the floor dry and clean, do not rinse with plenty of water, taking care to avoid long-term immersion partial laminate flooring. If the laminate flooring with grease and stains, attention should be clear, you can use mild household neutral detergent warm water is treated, preferably with matching laminate flooring special cleaning fluid to clean protection.
During use, do not need to wax laminate flooring and paint, not polished with sandpaper. Because laminate flooring is different from Parquet, its surface was relatively smooth, brightness is relatively good, waxing it will affect the results. Also, try to avoid direct sunlight and strong artificial light for a long time high temperature baked, so as not to laminate flooring surface cracking and early aging. When the rainy season, but also close the windows to avoid the rainy wet laminate flooring. At the same time pay attention to indoor ventilation, distribution of indoor moisture to maintain normal room temperature also help extend the life of reinforced composite flooring.
