Caring for your Xulon Flooring, whether it's hardwood, vinyl, or laminate, is key to preserving its beauty and extending its lifespan. Proper maintenance not only ensures the longevity of your flooring but also keeps it looking beautiful and timeless.

Hardwood Floor Care and Maintenance:

1. Regular Cleaning: Sweep, dust, or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and grit that can scratch the wood. Use a soft-bristle broom or a vacuum with a hardwood floor attachment.
2. Spill Management: Clean spills immediately with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using wet mops or steam cleaners, as excessive water can damage hardwood floors.
3. Use Appropriate Cleaners: Only use cleaning products specifically designed for hardwood floors. Harsh chemicals can damage the finish.
4. Avoid Scratches: Use felt pads under furniture legs and avoid walking on floors with high heels or heavy boots.
5. Climate Control: Maintain a consistent indoor humidity level to prevent wood from expanding or contracting, which can cause warping.

Vinyl Floor Care and Maintenance:

1. Regular Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove loose dirt. Clean with a damp mop using a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for vinyl floors.
2. Prevent Scratches and Dents: Use protective pads under furniture legs. Avoid dragging heavy objects across the floor.
3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use wax-based cleaners or harsh detergents, as they can damage the vinyl’s surface.
4. Rinse Well: After mopping, rinse the floor with clean water to remove any soap residue.

Laminate Floor Care and Maintenance:

1. Daily Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum using the hard floor attachment to remove dust and dirt.
2. Wet Cleaning: Use a damp mop with a laminate floor cleaner. Avoid soaking the mop; excess water can cause swelling at the edges of the laminate pieces.
3. Stain Removal: Wipe spills immediately. For tough stains, use a damp cloth with laminate floor cleaner.
4. Protective Measures: Use entry mats to catch dirt at doorways and felt pads under furniture legs. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

General Tips for All Flooring Types:

• Immediate Attention to Spills: Promptly cleaning spills prevents staining and potential damage.
• Regular Maintenance: Regular cleaning prolongs the floor’s life and preserves its aesthetic appeal.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Excessive heat or cold can affect flooring materials. Use window treatments to protect floors from prolonged sun exposure.

By following these care and maintenance tips, your Xulon Flooring will remain a stunning and durable feature of your home or business for years to come. Proper maintenance not only preserves the floor's integrity but also maintains its timeless appeal, ensuring that it continues to enhance your space beautifully.
