● Furniture moisture-proof strategy
With the arrival of "Southern Weather", it is easy to be attacked by moisture, and wood is easy to swell and mold when it is wet. In this case, you may put a piece of soap in the place where there is a musty smell, or put the dried tea residue into a gauze bag to help eliminate the musty smell, and close the doors and windows in time to prevent water vapor from penetrating. It is advisable to use thin glue to separate the parts of the furniture that are in contact with the ground, and at the same time keep a gap of 0.5-1cm between the parts of the furniture against the wall and the wall, so as to reduce the moisture of the furniture directly contacting the wall.
Leather sofa: Due to the humid air and the excessive sweating of the human body, the small pores of the leather will absorb sweat and moisture, and it will feel sticky when sitting on it. The leather will also produce odor, and eventually the sofa will be deformed due to the lack of ductility of the leather. Wipe the sofa with a rag frequently, and use special cleaning products and care products to avoid leather cracking.
● "Avoid the heat" in summer
With the arrival of summer and the rise in temperature, people are paying attention to avoiding the heat, but it is also a difficult time for furniture. Whether it is the summer temperature or the ultraviolet rays outside, all of these affect the life of furniture. Wooden furniture should be kept away from the air-conditioning vents to avoid damage or premature aging of the furniture due to the huge temperature difference. The placement should also avoid direct sunlight and use curtains to block it when necessary. Drawers and sliding doors may be difficult to open due to excessive expansion. Wax or paraffin can be applied to the edges and bottom slides of drawers and sliding doors.
Fabric/leather sofas: Strong sunlight can easily cause the sofa to fade and become old, accelerating the aging of furniture. It is best to place the sofa in a place that can avoid sunlight, or use gauze curtains to block the sunlight at noon.
● Furniture is prone to "getting angry" after autumn
After autumn, the weather begins to become dry, which can easily cause cracks and partial fading in the furniture in the room due to the excessive dryness of the wood. At this time, you should pay attention to protecting the paint film of the furniture to avoid accelerating the aging of the furniture. Wooden furniture cannot be simply wiped with a wet rag, but should use professional furniture care and other home care products to lock the moisture in the wood, so that the furniture maintains a normal moisture content, prevent the wood from cracking and deforming, and extend the service life of the furniture.
● Pay attention to humidity in winter
With the arrival of winter, the air is filled with dry air. At this time, when the home is fully heated, the indoor temperature is dry and stuffy, and the furniture may crack due to dryness. At this time, a humidifier is needed to adjust the indoor humidity. Opening windows for ventilation will only bring in the cold air outside, making the room drier. Therefore, ventilation time should be reduced in winter to maintain the original indoor humidity.
