How will daylight (UV Rays) affect the color of my hardwood flooring?
Almost all hardwoods have a tendency to darken over time. This depends upon the exposure to ultraviolet light daylight), the type of wood species, and the wood finish that is applied. Some exotic species may also become more reddish over time, some darker foreign and domestic hardwoods with a westward facing window and constant exposure to light may appear to fade in color from over exposure to UV Rays.
