Acclimation

We recommend installation by a qualified professional contractor. Although our wood is kiln dried for maximum stability, all reclaimed wood must be acclimated in the space where it will be installed prior to being installed. The acclimation time varies in different geographic locations, however 1 – 2 weeks is recommended.

SOLID WOOD FLOORING:

  • Subfloor: We recommend exterior grade plywood in a 5/8”-3/4” thickness. Make sure your subfloor and any other materials such as a concrete slab or joists are also acclimated. There should not be more than a 4% variation between the moisture content of your floor and the subfloor materials at the time of installation. If you are installing over a slab, we recommend two 1/2” layers of plywood screwed together. If your height allowance prohibits this method, please call us so we can advise you of your different options.

  • Nail Down: Our 3/4” floors can be installed using a standard floor nailing machine that uses staples or cleat type nails.
