We always spend a lot of time when buying flooring, but the maintenance for flooring tends to be neglected, with time flooring will lose in quality with shrinkage, cracks…

炎炎夏日正在逼近我们，地板要面对强烈的阳光，高温以及湿度的考验，因此更应该注重地板的养护。小柯给您专业的建议：

Now, the hottest summer is coming: excessive sunlight, temperature and moisture are only a few of the factors that might damage your flooring, so more attention should be paid to the maintenance of the flooring. Here is our flooring specialist’s advice:

1、注意通风Ventilate

夏天要经常通风，尤其是没有住人的房间，长期空置不住人的房间最容易出现起拱、卷边现象，所以一定要定期查看、通风。

Keep regular ventilation in summer, especially for the rooms no one lives in.

2、避免阳光直射Avoid direct sunlight

夏日强烈的阳光绝对是地板的杀手。持续的高温很容易导致地板收缩，产生裂缝。所以为了避免阳光直射，可以选择厚厚的或者遮阳效果好的窗帘。

A big killer for flooring is the sunshine in summer. The continuous high temperature will easily cause the flooring to shrinkage or to crack.

You can install thicker and opaque curtains to avoid the solarization of the flooring.

3、控制室内温度Control indoor temperature

需要经常开窗通风，或者通过空调给室内降温。但是为了避免地板水分过于流失，请勿直接对着地板吹风。

The windows should be often opened for ventilation or indoor temperatures can be reduced through air conditioning. However, try not to let it blow directly to the flooring to prevent too much drying of the floor.

4、调节室内湿度Humidify indoor air moderately

如果碰上持续的烈日炎炎，那么室内空气势必会很干燥，此时，你需要使用加湿器改善室内空气湿度，以防地板水分流失造成开裂；

当然有些地区在夏天会经常下雨，很潮湿，湿度过重往往会滋生细菌的生长。

The air might become very dry as it is always sunny, so you should use a humidifier to humidify indoor air, preventing flooring from cracking.

On the other hand, during summer some areas suffer from rainy seasons, humidity where excessive moisture will encourage the growth of bacteria.
