DURABILITY
Wood floors are designed to withstand the traffic
of busy families, including man’s best friend. Wood floors are extremely
durable. They can withstand the rambunctiousness of a puppy and still
look beautiful for decades. Just be sure to pick a species that can
endure your dog’s playful spirit, sharp nails, and occasional accidents.
Real Wood Floors can also be professionally cleaned and refinished
without having to be sanded. This process is called the “Restore”
method.
HARDNESS
Each
species of hardwood has a different level of hardness. Some common
domestic species like walnut, cherry, and birch are less hard in
comparison to other common domestic species like maple, hickory, and
oak.
The hardness of solid wood is measured according to a system
called the Janka Scale. The Janka Scale gives a good indication of how
well a wood species can be expected to withstand dents and dings. The
scale is determined by the amount of pound-force required to push a
.444-inch diameter steel ball halfway into the wood.
Ratings
for both domestic and imported species are included in the scale;
however, none of these values apply to engineered wood flooring. While
Janka values give a general sense of how hard solid wood is, other
factors also contribute to the durability of wood as well. This can
include things like how the wood is cut and the finish that is applied
to the wood.
HEALTH BENEFITS
You probably think a lot
about whether the food you eat is safe. But how safe is the flooring
surface in your home? When it comes to flooring, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) finds that hardwood floors improve indoor air
quality. They do not harbor microorganisms, allergens, or pesticides
that can be tracked in from outdoors. Hardwood floors also minimize the
accumulation of dust, mold and animal dander which makes wood floors a
healthy option for your little one’s first steps and beyond. This makes
your entire house much safer while giving your home the style and class
of its own. Hardwood and wood floors also increase the value of your
home as soon as the installation is complete and your new floors are
completely finished.
