Well, it is acclimated----to their warehouse. If you want it acclimated to the conditions in your home, have it delivered a week early and spread it out.

Yep~ Chances are the temp and humidity aren't the same in the Warehouse as in your home.

Ideally it should be spread out in your house to acclimate for 3-4 weeks.

Just having new hickory floors laid. They are cupping and have raised up in other areas. The house was not air conditioned when they laid the floors. AC has now been running for 2 weeks and cupping is still present, though better. When floor guy came back the moisture meter showed the plywoood to be at 16 and hickory was below 6. Now hickory shows at 14 and plywood at 12. Does this mean anything to you all? He said he did not check the moisture before he laid the floor. Seriously!

"The house was not air conditioned when they laid the floors."

Every manufacturer requires HVAC be on and working.

The installer should have refused to ;ay the floor.

The only thing you can use is tincture of time.

Just wait. Possibly many months.

"Just wait. Possibly many months", and even then it may never lay down completely.

Jesus.....a week to ten days is adequate..........

"Jesus.....a week to ten days is adequate.........."

It takes about a year per inch to air dry lumber directly from a tree.

A week to ten days is simply NOT adequate unless the floor is 3/8 inch thick.
