Certain vendors suggest it is a must, while others say it doesn&#8217;t make a huge difference.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-bottom: 7px;\">Why Does Wood Flooring have to Acclimate?<\/h2>\n<p>According to The Carpet Guys, <strong>wood floors need to acclimate<\/strong> to their environment. This allows the wood to expand and contract, or &#8220;adjust&#8221; according to its surroundings. Proper acclimation is important to assure the hardwood planks won&#8217;t cup or damage in the process.<\/p>\n<p>If you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/hardwood\/\">install hardwood flooring<\/a> too dry, it could expand and permanently cup from too much humidity. It needs a little extra breathing room to compensate for the expansions and contractions.<\/p>\n<p>Since\u00a0Michigan tends to run hot and humid in the summer and cold and dry in the winter, this is important to remember. Therefore, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/hardwood\/solid-hardwood-floors\/\">natural wood floors<\/a> should be allowed to acclimate before they&#8217;re installed.<\/p>\n<p>Hardwood floors perform best when the indoor climate has a humidity of 30-50%. Also, ideal temperatures for wood floors is between 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit.<\/p>\n<p>This is also true of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/resources\/engineered-wood-floors\/\">engineered wood floors<\/a>, even though they are not solid throughout.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3470\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/hardwood-with-table.jpg\" alt=\"what happens if you don't acclimate hardwood floor\" width=\"775\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/hardwood-with-table.jpg 775w, https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/hardwood-with-table-300x155.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Storage Of Wood Floors For Acclimation<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Before your hardwood flooring installation takes place, here are a few acclimation aspects to keep in mind:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hardwood planks should be stored at the destination where they will be installed.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They should NOT be put in an uncontrolled environment with no heating or cooling.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do NOT put wood flooring planks in the garage or anywhere outside the home.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the packaging to allow the wood to acclimate.
