Should I Put Hardwood Floors in a House With High Humidity?
Trees have vertical vessels in their trunks, which allow them to absorb water from the ground. Even after a tree has been cut down and milled for flooring, these vessels are still present in the wood, resulting in absorbent hardwood flooring. With major variations between low or high humidity, you should be aware of necessary precautions to be taken to ensure flooring made from wood and/or natural ingredients does not sustain damage.
