Flooring Solutions recommends Bridgestone’s Airstep because its Australian made and is guaranteed
Have ever noticed when you go for run, you feel more jarring running on the road, than when you run on grass. It’s the same with your carpets, if you have underlay your feet get less tired.
You see, you can buy the most expensive carpet, but if you don’t lay a decent underlay, then your carpets, won’t feel as good as they should.
When you select a new carpet, you have lot of things to consider – colour, design, construction, amount of foot traffic etc. You want your home to be a warm and welcoming.
Once you’ve chosen your carpet, you still have one important decision, what type of underlay will you use.
You should look for an underlay, which provides cushioning for your feet, giving you a luxurious underfoot feel. It also needs to support your carpet to ensure that you will get the maximum life out of your carpet. The correct support prevents the risk of stretching and bubbling over time, which helps to extend the performance and life of your carpet.
Your underlay also helps to reduce noise and acts as a thermal barrier.
Flooring Solutions recommends Bridgestone’s Airstep because its Australian made and is guaranteed for the ‘Life of the Carpet’ by Bridgestone Australia Limited.
- Natural – Bridgestone manufactures Airstep underlay with pure natural rubber from rubber trees, “our sustainable resource”.
- Anti-Microbial – Bridgestone Airstep underlay, without the addition of any chemical additives, shows a natural resistance to fungal growth and therefore does not need to be treated with chemicals. Airstep rubber underlays have been shown not only to resist the growth of bacteria, mould and mildew in itself, but to positively affect connecting surfaces, thus reducing the growth of allergens in the carpet.
- Asthma And Allergy Friendly – When it comes to Asthma and allergies a well maintained carpet and underlay can actually help to improve the quality of the air. With a hard surface the particles of dust settle on the floor and have a tendency to be disturbed by foot traffic and float back into the air, whereas, with an carpet and underlay, the particles of dust and allergens remain trapped in the carpet. Airstep underlay is dust free, lint free and fibre free, those elements so troublesome to the allergy prone.
- Ventilation – The unique waffle design allows air to circulate through the valleys removing any dampness.
- CFC Free – The sponge rubber effect in Airstep rubber is achieved by the release of CO2 gas from Sodium bicarbonate powder, simply Baking Soda. It contains no CFC’s Formaldehyde, or volatile organic compounds.
Your feet will thank you by choosing Airstep underlay and your carpets will last longer.
The underlay is not just for your carpets, it should also be used between your concrete floors and laminated timber flooring, to reduce noise.
Cleaning and Maintaining Your Bamboo Floor
Caring for Bamboo flooring is the same as for any timber flooring. Bamboo flooring is a naturally tough and hardwearing floor. It is finished with seven coats of high quality water based aluminium oxide and will, if cared for properly, give your establishment many years of service.
Prevention
- Prevent dirt, grit and sand from getting inside your building as much as possible by using dirt-trapping walk-off mats at all entrances. These mats should be cleaned regularly.
- Avoid walking on floor with stiletto shoes. Keep high heels in good repair – worn heels with exposed metal will dent any floor surface, even concrete!
- Keep pet claw’s trimmed to avoid excessive scratching.
- Be careful when moving heavy furniture or appliances. Lift them or slide them slowly over the floor on a clean piece of upturned carpeting or thick felt.
- Use floor protector pads on the feet of all furniture.
- Do not use rugs with rubber or vinyl backing or coir mats in high traffic areas.
General Care
Use electrostatic mop or vacuum with a brush head daily for best results. Remove wet spills, grease and food marks promptly using a cloth wet with water. As with all types of flooring, prolonged exposure to water will result in cupping and swelling of the boards. Watch for leaky taps under benches and inside cupboards!
Sweeping
Sweep daily with a soft and dry electrostatic sweep mop. Do not use oil impregnated mops – these spread a thin film which could cause slipping. Loose grit can damage a bamboo floor very quickly when trodden into the surface.
Mopping
We recommend you mop your floor weekly (and more frequently if necessary), using a commercial, non ammonia, neutral PH cleaner, such as Peerless Versadet or Citrus Resources Orange Squirt or Bona Floor Cleaner, that will remove dirt and grime but not damage or bleach the boards. Use as little water as possible. Follow the instructions as directed by the manufacturer.
Recommended Cleaning products
We recommend the following cleaning and maintenance products for timber flooring. Please refer to manufacturer’s guidelines and instructions.
Bona Timber floor maintenance products www.ezifloor.com.au
Citrus Resources www.citrusresources.com.au
Peerless Timber Cleaning products www.peerlessjal.com.au
Refinishing/Recoating
Proper care and maintenance will extend the life of your floor before needing to recoat. Recoating should happen when traffic patterns have appeared in your finish. If the floor is really worn or damaged re-sanding and coating may be necessary. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for recoating systems.
