01
Do not use vinegar or ammonia
Vinegar and harsh cleaners can eat away at a hardwood floor finish. Use products made for finished wood floors and apply liquid sparingly.
02
Do not let moisture sit
Water, wet towels, steam mops, and heavy moisture can damage wood flooring. Clean spills quickly and use entry mats to reduce tracked-in moisture.
03
Protect the floor from grit and scratches
Crumbs, dirt, and debris can act like sandpaper underfoot. Regular sweeping, felt pads, floor mats, and trimmed pet nails help protect the finish.
