Is the keel under the laying of the solid wood floor or directly flattened with cement? Each has its

Why do you need a keel for solid wood flooring?

1. Playing a role in leveling the ground: playing the keel can play a role in leveling when the cement ground is not very flat.

2. Moisture-proof: There is a keel as an intermediate layer between the solid wood floor and the ground, and the solid wood floor does not need to contact the ground to have a certain air circulation, and the service life of the floor will be extended.

3. Better foot feel: Many people choose solid wood flooring because it feels comfortable on the feet, and the keel is used as a fixed support, and the gap between them makes the solid wood floor more elastic and more comfortable and gentle to walk.

4. Noise reduction: When people walk on it, they will feel much gentler and there is no noise.

The disadvantages of solid wood flooring without keel.

1. Greatly reduce the foot feeling of solid wood flooring, it is better to spend less money to lay laminate flooring and composite flooring;

2. The wood properties of solid wood have not been changed, that is, the arrangement structure in the direction of the fiber, and the probability of deformation has not changed much;

3. Solid wood flooring cannot effectively avoid moisture, and the traditional moisture-proof film cannot solve the problem of air circulation under the floor.

Is it okay not to hit the keel when laying the solid wood floor? Okay, it's okay in the short term for three or five years, but if you think about it, ten or twenty years later, I hope that consumers will consider the purpose and reason for choosing solid wood flooring when choosing solid wood flooring.

The function of the keel is mainly to stabilize the structure of the solid wood floor, and the direction of the paving keel is perpendicular to the direction of the floor, the purpose is to stagger the constraints and prevent expansion and contraction. In the early days, the pavement of solid wood floors basically required keels, because the solid wood floor pure wood structure was susceptible to the influence of the environment and bulging and shrinking. The keel cannot be installed in a room with underfloor heating, and the keel pavement sometimes has the problem of floor noise.

Many of the current treatment technologies have made solid wood floors can be tiled and installed, and some have patented locking technology, which makes the floor unable to expand and deform, such as Tiange flooring, and some use other materials to replace the keel structure, which also ensures the stability of the floor, such as Pan American flooring. There won't be much difference in the feel of the foot, because after all, he is a solid wood floor, not a laminate floor.

The main thing is to look at the brand and technology, not all solid wood floors can be tiled. Especially now, most of the floor heating is basically underneath, and it is easier to deform on the solid wood floor heating, so it is more important to consider the brand and technical strength.

Be sure to hit the keel.

If it is laid directly, the solid wood floor is easy to crack.

It can be avoided by hitting the keel, and the foot feeling is better.

If the solid wood floor is paved with a keel, the foot feeling is better, the warmth is stronger, and the installation is more stable, and the service life will be longer. Cement flat laying is only suitable for laminate floor installation, generally solid wood floors need to hit the keel to sprinkle insect powder, and fix the solid wood floor on the keel with screws, because the solid wood floor does not have the card groove of the laminate floor, if it is laid directly on the cement floor, after a long time, there will be a large gap. It is recommended that it is better to use keel laying, the cost may be a little higher.
