Hardwood flooring and temperature/humidity control
|
The instructions that came with our flooring and with the recommended
adhesive say to allow everything to stabilize for at least 72 hours in the place where the flooring is to be laid. That's not so much of a problem -- except that somebody keeps opening windows and turning off the A/C. HOWEVER, in the course of searching the web for something else, I found a flooring manufacturer's/vendor's (don't recall the name or URL) Web site saying that once you have installed hardwood flooring, the humidity must be maintained at 40% to 45% at all times. I've never read that anywhere
else. That surely can't be true, can it? The person who keeps opening windows here says she can't live in a house where she can't open windows.
