Q:
What is the best process for cleaning birch wood floors? (oil-based, water-based, dusting unless absolutely necessary to deep clean?)
Asked on 10/21/2012 by Cindy from Texas

- CUSTOMER CARE
  
  A:
  For general cleaning a swiffer type system works best. Not one that sprays the floor however. Lightly damp is fine but never soak or flood mop your floor. Do not use steam mops. Have a no shoes policy as much as possible. Use felt pads on all furniture. Sweep often.
  
  Bellawood Cleaner works very well, find it here - http://www.lumberliquidators.com/catalog/section.jsp?categoryId=19
  
  In addition, Bona Kemi makes good and safe hardwood flooring cleaner.

Q:
Could this be used in a commercial type office application? How would you compare the wear and tear of this product to an AC4 grade laminate?

  A:
  This flooring has it's good points for your application one of which is a very durable finish, however because it's handscraped, future refinishing would be difficult, In addition the uneven surface would be a problem with office chairs (soft urethane chair casters are recommended for any hardwood flooring). A Bellawood floor, light to medium in color and harder than red oak can work very well. Laminate flooring is good if you can get AC 4 but they can never be refinished if damaged.

Q:
I'm planning to use the nail-down approach to install the hardwood floor on the second floor of my house. However, the moisture level of the plywood subfloor is 11% while the hardwood is 6%. Is the difference of 5% too high for the installation? It seems so according to the Warranty Statement. If so, will a moisture barrier, such as the 6mil poly sheeting help?
Asked on 5/25/2011 by Greenback from Southern CA
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  Yes it is too high, for this wider board it needs to be within 2% difference.
  Wood subfloors: Determine if conditions are dry before installing. Wood subfloor moisture reading must not exceed 12%; the ideal moisture content within new wood flooring is 6%-9%. The differential balance between new boards and subfloor must not exceed 2% for board widths over 2 1/4”. If moisture readings are too high, postpone the installation, find the moisture source and correct. Raise heat and increase ventilation, holding off installation until proper conditions are met.
  Plastic is never recommended for installation over wood subfloors. 15 lb roofing felt is recommended over wood subflooring.

Q:
What is the best way to install wood flooring over a concrete floor with radient heating?
Asked on 4/14/2011 by John from Hudson, WI
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- CUSTOMER CARE
  
  A:
  When looking for solid flooring over radiant heat installations it's important to look for wood with a high stability rating or engineered flooring. Radiant heated flooring can expand and contract more than usual. This floor is Birch which is a poor performer because of a low stability rating.

Q:
Had this floor installed on concrete using the sealing glue recommended by Lumber Liquidators. What is the best method for cleaning dried glue residue? I'm concerned with using harsh chemicals as I don't want to harm the finish.

1 answer
- A:
  Please note this is ONLY a helpful recommendation that is not guaranteed to work (but who worth a try!!!)
  
  1.) Apply the Ultimate Adhesive Remover or mineral spirits on the spotted area, let stand for 10 minutes or so.
  2.) Take a Magic Eraser ( This is a foam pad found in the cleaning section in most grocery stores). Use the foam side. Some have a scouring pad on 1-side. Buff the area with the Magic Eraser.
  3.) Get a clean white cotton cloth and/or micro-fiber cloth, very lightly dampened with water, wipe off the residue you created.
  Always do a test first in an inconspicuous area.

Q:
How would you install this flooring on concrete.
Asked on 1/17/2011 by Benjamin from Houston
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  There are 3 ways to install this product over concrete. One is to glue it down over the slab. The second is to install a floating plywood subfloor system. The third is to use our Elastilon underlayment.
  Floating plywood subfloor system:
  Concrete should be clean and level up to 1/8” over 6’. Apply a 6mil mil poly sheeting over the concrete overlapping the seams 6 inches and tape with duct tape. Install a layer of 1/2” plywood over the poly sheeting. Next install a second layer of 1/2” plywood at a 45 degree angle to the first layer. Screw the top layer of plywood to the bottom layer. Be sure not to penetrate the poly sheeting with the screws. Allow for a ½” expansion space between the plywood and any walls and 1/8” gap between square edge plywood panels. Last install 15lb black roofing paper over the plywood and install the flooring over the roofing paper.
  
  Elastilon underlayment:
  Elastilon is a 1/8” thick underlayment with a self adhesive system. To use this product over concrete you will have to apply a 6 mil poly sheeting over the concrete first, overlapping the seam 6” and tape with duct tape. Roll out the Elastilon perpendicular to the direction of your floor installation. Butt the seams of the Elastion together (do not overlap). Next begin your installation of the flooring following Elastilons’ installation instructions.

Q:
Can this be nailed or can it just float? THis is going on a second story and I planed on putting down 1/4 inch luan over the existing floor to give me a smoother surface.
Asked on 1/15/2011 by JVC Studios from San Antonio TX
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  The Virginia Mill Works Cocoa Birch can only be installed as a nail down or glue down application. To float this product you would need to use the Elastilon underlayment. It is not recommended to nail over Luan board, instead use a 1/4" plywood or just level the orginial plywood or OSB subfloor. The floor should not be nailed into particle board.
