Taking Care of Your Maple Sports Floor ,
Your Gym Floor has a Non slip coating over it.
It is possible to slicking this coating by using Bleach, .This is a no no.
Wood is porous and can absorb and release moisture. If the humidity rises,
your wood floor will absorb that moisture, causing it to expand. If the
humidity falls, your wood floor will release moisture, causing it to shrink.
Many installations include expansion voids around the perimeter and around
columns or floor inserts, plus expansion joints built into the floor surface.
These features permit natural, normal expansion and contraction without damage
to the floor. Too much moisture causes abnormal expansion, which can lead to
cupping or buckling of your floor. In abnormally dry conditions the wood will
contract, leaving separations between flooring strips.
Steps For Proper Maintenance: Dry Tac THE FLOOR DAILY with a properly treated
dust mop. If the floor is used heavily, sweep it up to three times per day.
WIPE UP SPILLS and any moisture on the floor surface.
MAKE SURE THE HEATING/VENTILATING/AIR CONDITIONING
SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY and set to maintain indoor relative humidities
between 35 percent and 50 percent year round. In areas of consistently high or
low outside humidity, a 15 percent fluctuation will not adversely affect the
maple.
REMOVE Scuffing and shoe marks using an approved floor cleaner applied with a
soft cloth Contact your floor finish manufacturer for approved cleaning
products.
INSPECT FLOOR FOR TIGHTENING OR SHRINKAGE. During wet weather, check for water
leakage around doors and windows. Remove debris from expansion voids.
ALWAYS PROTECT THE FLOOR when moving heavy portable equipment or lifts. Ensure
portable equipment does NOT have crowned wheels or wheels that include center
ridges remaining from the molding process. These types of wheels can create
very significant point loads.
Please Observe the Following: Shutting down the
ventilation system in your facility for a prolonged period of time, Is a Bad
Idea.
Clean your floor using No scrubbing machinery or power scrubbers that use
water under pressure. Water is your floor's worst enemy!
