(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) How important is acclimating hardwood flooring before installation?

WEBSTER, NY, UNITED STATES, July 28, 2025 /EINPresswire / -- How important is acclimating hardwood flooring before installation? According to Dale Rosilio of Rosilio Hardwood Flooring, featured in a recent article on HelloNation , the acclimation process is essential to avoiding costly problems such as warping, cupping, and gapping in hardwood floors. Particularly in regions like Webster, NY, where seasonal humidity fluctuations are common, proper acclimation ensures flooring adjusts to local conditions, preserving both beauty and durability.

Rosilio emphasizes the significance of allowing hardwood flooring to acclimate within the installation space for a recommended period of 3 to 7 days. This timeframe allows the wood to reach equilibrium with the room's moisture levels, reducing the risk of future issues related to humidity-driven expansion and contraction. Proper acclimation involves storing flooring materials flat with open boxes to facilitate adequate air circulation.

Neglecting this vital preparation step can lead to extensive and expensive maintenance issues, and in some cases, even void manufacturer warranties. Rosilio Hardwood Flooring underscores the necessity of educating homeowners about the importance of acclimation, encouraging proactive steps to safeguard their investment in hardwood flooring.
