Can Bolivian Rosewood floor be enjoyed in dry climates?

10 years ago

I consider the Bolivian Rosewood hardwood floor from Lumber Liquidators for my house renovation project. Would this product perform well in dry climate as in Northern Nevada (i.e., Reno)? Does anyone have experience with acclamation, installation and maintenance of this floor in dry climate areas?

Good question concerning Rosewood. An expert wood scientist will probably come in with a response and tell you that you are smart to know that certain wood flooring products are 'regional' in many instances (i.e. suitable or not suitable, depending on the prevailing climate).

Thank you glennsfc. I have heard that wood flooring products may be 'regional', but because these products are already pre-finished, UV cured, and aluminum dioxide-urethane coated by the manufacturer, I was hoping to hear from people having personal experiences with Bolivian rosewood flooring (Bellawood/Lumbar liquidators) in dry climates.
