Flooring is a very important part of home renovation, not only affects the overall appearance of the family, but also has a great impact on the environmental indicators of the home, so the choice of flooring is increasingly valued by consumers.
Scholarly aesthetic floor Â
At present, the common floorboards on the market mainly include three categories of solid wood flooring, solid wood composite flooring, and reinforced flooring. What are the advantages and disadvantages of these floors? In this issue of "Home Classroom", Yang Meixin, Deputy Chairman of the Flooring Committee of the China Timber Distribution Association, invited you to pay attention to the selection of flooring.
Solid wood flooring: less wood moisture
Aesthetics: ★★★★☆
Environmental protection: ★★★★☆
Abrasion resistance: ★★★☆☆
Price: ★★★★★
The solid wood floor is the "noble" in these types of floors.
Because of the constraints of raw materials, solid wood flooring prices have increased year by year. The annual increase is about 20%. Therefore, the price of solid wood flooring is high in the market.
To choose the nature of the floor. The nature of the floor wood is related to whether the floor is easily deformed. The wood properties of wood are just like one's temper. Some people are bad-tempered. Some people are gentle-tempered. The wood is also like this. Some wood species have low deformation rate and some have large deformation rate. The best choice for consumers is to choose wood with relatively stable materials, such as teak floors and merbau floors, but the wood properties of most woods are similar.
The moisture content of wood is critical. The moisture content in Beijing is about 11%, so consumers should not choose a floor with a moisture content of more than 12%, otherwise the water in the floor will easily evaporate into the air and the floor will be deformed. When consumers buy solid wood flooring, it is best to go to the warehouse to check the bag, if necessary, they can ask the merchant to use the instrument to determine the moisture content.
Look at the accuracy of floor machining. Consumers must carefully inspect the integrity of the surface of the floor and the flatness of the paint when it is in advance inspection. It should not be rough to the touch, and it must not have paint leaks or air holes. In addition, after the floor is bought and returned home, it will definitely look a little darker than when it is seen in the business hall. This is because the business hall causes the floor to be slightly lighter than the actual color because of lighting and other reasons. Consumers must have a good idea about this. .
Solid wood composite floor: gaps and tastes are small
Aesthetics: ★★★★☆
Environmental protection: ★★★★☆
Wear resistance: ★★★★☆
Price: ★★★★☆
Compared to solid wood flooring, solid wood flooring retains some of the advantages of solid wood flooring, while overcoming some of the solid wood floor defects.
Solid wood composite floor has three layers of solid wood composite floor and multi-layer solid wood composite floor, but no matter what kind of solid wood composite flooring, in the manufacture of the board are vertical and horizontal, and changed the original characteristics of the wood. This structure has a relatively small deformation rate of the floor due to the internal forces acting on each other. The feel of solid wood flooring is slightly worse than that of solid wood flooring, but it is higher than that of laminate flooring. The price is between the two.
Because solid wood flooring is vertically and horizontally crossed, it can be clearly identified from the side, with obvious boundaries on the surface, middle and back of the floor. The surface board of the multi-layer solid wood composite floor is relatively thin, and the processing technology is relatively simple, so the price of the multi-layer solid wood composite floor is lower than that of the three-layer solid wood composite floor. Consumers can choose according to their own actual conditions.
However, whether it is three-layer parquet or multi-layer parquet, it is finally glued. Therefore, when consumers purchase, they must look at the phenomenon of separation between layers and layers, and whether the corners are warped or not. Qualified parquet flooring must be intact. In addition, since it is glued together, we must also pay attention to whether the amount of formaldehyde released is excessive. Consumers can use their noses to smell when they buy, whether they have unusual smells, or they can request inspection reports.
The wear resistance of laminate flooring is best in these types of flooring.
Laminate flooring: high surface strength
Aesthetics: ★★★★★
Environmental protection: ★★★☆☆
Abrasion resistance: ★★★★★
Price: ★★★☆☆
Laminate flooring is relatively the cheapest. It grinds the wood into a fibrous shape after a certain processing process, and then glues it. Since the color of the laminate flooring is determined by the surface decorative paper, the laminate flooring has characteristics that closely follow the trend.
There is also a wear-resistant layer on the decorative paper of the laminate flooring. The main component is aluminum oxide. It is this layer of wear-resistant layer that makes the wear resistance of the laminate flooring the strongest. When consumers purchase, they can use hard objects such as keys to draw on the floor to see if there are scratches. It also depends on whether the print quality of the surface decorative paper of the laminate flooring is clear and soft, which is like checking whether the color is dark and even when buying cloth.
For laminate flooring, special attention should be paid to the amount of formaldehyde released during the purchase. The inspection method is the same as solid wood flooring.
For homes that use floor heating, consider a floor that is dedicated to geothermal heating. Consumers should pay attention to three points when selecting heating floor: First, the floor should not be too thick, otherwise it will affect heat transfer; Second, the temperature performance is good, otherwise the floor is easily deformed; Third, the environmental performance is high, because the higher the temperature The rate of formaldehyde release will increase, so it is best to choose the floor with the lowest formaldehyde emission when choosing a floor to be heated.
