Solid wood furniture is made of wood, which is susceptible to environmental humidity and changes in swelling and shrinkage. The winter climate is relatively dry, and many households often adopt heating measures indoors due to the need for warmth, which further emphasizes the dryness of indoor air. As a result, solid wood furniture is severely dehydrated, and cracking is difficult to repair. Today, Y Jun teaches the maintenance of solid wood furniture!

The price of solid wood furniture is generally not cheap. If you don't pay attention to good maintenance, cracking and other conditions will affect the appearance, and the loss is very distressing.

As everyone knows, these furniture are afraid of high temperature, long-term high-temperature baking, easy to make the wood lose moisture, local dry cracking, deformation, paint film deterioration. It is best to place the solid wood furniture at least 1 meter away from the heater .
3 reduce window ventilation time in winter
The indoor humidity in winter is higher than that in the outdoor. Therefore, ventilation in the winter window will only make the outside cold air come in and make the room more dry. Therefore, it is recommended that households with more solid wood furniture at home should reduce the time and frequency of window ventilation in winter to maintain the proper humidity in the room. Also note that solid wood furniture should be avoided in the vents.
