Standards for properly installing plastic wood floors

Installing plastic wood floors properly and with correct techniques plays an important role in ensuring the durability and aesthetics of the project.

One of the mandatory requirements is to install a skeleton system. However, this process will create a gap underneath, making many people wonder how cleaning will be done? Is the quality of the floor and substrate guaranteed? To answer the above question, you need to meet the following 3 criteria:

• 1: The foundation needs to have a slight slope so that water can easily flow down the drain cover.
• 2: Arrange a floor cover at the drainage position of the foundation so that it can be removed and convenient for removing trash from the drainage cover.

• 3: The floor frame should not be close to the ground surface, but should create a gap so that water and waste can escape easily, avoiding water blockages and causing unpleasant odors. The integration of the skeleton system helps protect the quality of the floor and foundation structure in the best way.

If you have enough of the above 3 factors, you can use a high-capacity spray nozzle to clean from the floor to the underfloor quickly and effectively. Can be cleaned once a month to ensure the floor is always clean and beautiful.

3 ways to clean outdoor plastic wood floors properly and effectively

Once you have installed outdoor plastic Laminate flooring according to the above techniques, cleaning is also extremely simple. Below are 3 effective ways that you can refer to.

Regularly clean the grooves between plastic wood floor panels

PE brooms are made with plastic fibers, they have a certain hardness but still ensure to minimize the possibility of scratches on the surface of plastic wood floors. With a small plastic fiber design, they have the flexibility to go deep into the gaps between plastic wood panels, helping to remove stains quickly and effectively.

Remove moss and mold on the floor surface with specialized detergents

Outdoor environments often have high humidity, which is an ideal place for the growth of moss and mold. Therefore, it is necessary to clean regularly to avoid slipping and causing danger to the family. However, normal cleaning such as using water sometimes cannot completely remove mold that has formed and accumulated in crevices.

In addition, outdoor plastic wood floors are often used for areas such as gardens, play areas, picnic areas, etc. Therefore, cooking and living activities often take place here, causing greasy plaque to form. Sticks to the floor surface and is difficult to clean.

Depending on each case, we have our own ways to handle it:

• With newly formed floor surfaces that have moss and mold, we can clean them with mild detergent. pH from 5 to 8 (ammonia free).

• For old, difficult-to-remove stains such as grease, you should use floor cleaner, dishwashing liquid diluted with warm water to sprinkle on the entire floor, soak for 3-5 minutes and then rinse with clean water.
