In the past few days, the spring rain has brought a sense of dullness, and it's not just the weather that's causing discomfort — the wooden wardrobe in your home is also facing the same issue. Every season, keeping wooden wardrobes dry becomes a pressing concern. So, how can you properly maintain your wooden wardrobe during the rainy season? What are the best moisture-proof methods for different types of wardrobes? The following tips from the Chinese wardrobe network will help you keep your furniture in top condition.
**1. Open South-Facing Windows on Dry Days**
During the wet season, especially if your home has already been renovated, it's crucial to manage humidity effectively. On rainy days, avoid opening south-facing windows, as the air coming in is warm and humid. Similarly, when the outside air is damp, it’s better to limit ventilation. However, when the sun comes out, opening the windows for fresh air is highly recommended. In addition, using moisture-absorbing products like dehumidifiers, activated carbon, or drying boxes can be effective. You can also use electric heaters or the dehumidifying mode of an air conditioner to reduce indoor humidity.
**2. Different Methods for Different Types of Wardrobes**
**Wooden Wardrobes:** To maintain their shine and prevent damage, apply a special cleaning agent or protective wax evenly on the surface. This helps preserve the wood and protect it from moisture.
**Artificial Board Wardrobes:** These are more sensitive to water. If the edges are not sealed well, they can swell or get damaged. It’s important to make sure they’re waterproofed from the start, and add a layer of waterproofing to areas that are prone to moisture absorption. Proper sealing and closing are essential.
**Leather Wardrobes:** When damp, leather can become stiff and may develop mold on corners. In severe cases, it might even deform or fade. After cleaning off dust and mildew, applying leather conditioner or oil can restore its softness. Placing desiccants underneath the furniture can also help keep it dry.
**Cloth Wardrobes:** For fabric wardrobes, using a vacuum cleaner with a special attachment can remove dust effectively. During the “Back to the South†period, using low heat from a hairdryer or air duct can help eliminate moisture trapped inside the fabric.
**Metal Wardrobes:** On rainy days, wipe them with a dry cloth to prevent rust. If rust appears, use a cloth soaked in a rust inhibitor or a toothbrush to clean the affected areas, then polish with a dry cloth to restore its shine.
By following these simple yet effective tips, you can ensure your wardrobes stay in excellent condition, no matter how wet the weather gets. Taking care of your furniture now can save you from costly repairs later.
