Equilibrium moisture content of wood Wood Flooring has a comfort level too: Wood flooring will perform best when the interior environment is controlled to stay within a relative range of 45 to 55 percent and a range of 20 to 25 °Celsius. Fortunately, that’s about the same comfort range most humans enjoy. The charts below indicate the equilibrium moisture content of wood under various temperature and humidity conditions. The left column indicates temperature in Celsius. The row above indicates percent relative humidity. The values in the chart indicate the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) for...

GUIDELINES FOR THE INSTALLATION OF AN ENGINEERED FLOOR ON UNDERFLOOR HEATING Research has shown that the quality of the floor surface strongly affects the feeling of comfort. With wood flooring the feeling of comfort is there from the outset due its favourable warm nature. The advantage is that wooden floors always maintain the ambient temperature and never feel cold in the same way that “hard” surfaces such as tiles or stone would. When laying wood floors on cement screeds, make sure a time frame of around 4-5 weeks is allowed for curing and natural drying. To remove residual moisture completely,...

Bulletin for the installation of wooden floor on underfloor heating Timber and timber materials have been used for many years to construct wooden floors and have proven to work well with underfloor heating. The data below is the result of research conducted by the Holzforschung Austria (Timber Research Austria) and sponsored by the Ministry of Construction and Engineering, and the long-term experience of miscellaneous floor constructions over underfloor heating. 1. Moisture barrier In rooms level with the ground, without basement, or above gateways, damp rooms, alleys or garages a non-transient...
