Use a cleaner specifically manufactured for hardwood flooring. Do Not Use Water or Vinegar. Do NOT apply directly to the floor. • For tougher spots, use a higher concentration of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water. • For extreme cases, a solution of nail polish remover (acetone) and distilled water can be used. HINT: For best results, clean the floor in the same direction of the planks. When the cleaning cloth/mop becomes soiled, rinse or replace it with a clean one. Following up with a clean, dry cloth will remove residual streak marks and spots. 3. Do NOT leave any amount of liquids (water, juice, soft drinks, spills, etc.) on the floor. Clean any wet spots immediately. 4. Do NOT use a steam cleaner. 5. Do NOT use a wet mop or douse floor with water or liquid cleaners. Liquid can seep between the cracks and cause moisture damage. 6. Do NOT use any cleaning agents containing wax, oil or polish. Left over residue will form a dull film. 7. Do NOT use steel wool or scouring powder which will scratch the floor.

Acclimation and In-service Conditions. Acclimation is the process of adjusting (conditioning) the moisture content of hardwood flooring to the environment in which it is expected to perform. The hardwood flooring is fully acclimated when its moisture content and dimensions (width and length) are stable. Engineered hardwood flooring typically does not need acclimation as long as the environment it is being installed in is fully acclimated. This means the HVAC system is fully operational and the home is being maintained in lived in conditions during and after the installation. If the temperature and relative humidity falls outside normal ranges of 60°F-80°F and relative humidity (RH) of 30%- 50% then the product must be acclimated for a minimum of 3 days or longer depending on conditions. To properly acclimate you must open boxes, open plastic wrap. Elevate cartons from the floor by placing them on 2”X 2” lumber or equivalence. Place spacers (3/4” to 1” sticks) between each layer or cross stack the layers for maximum exposure to ambient conditions. Acclimation temperature range is 60°F-80°F and relative humidity (RH) of 30%-50%. Conditions in which the floor was acclimated should be maintained continuously thereafter. Document as much acclimation information as possible below.
