Why do floors gap more in some Australian locations than others?
From a professional specification perspective:
Gapping varies by climate: Innisfail has high humidity year-round so boards expand with less gapping, Brisbane and coastal areas have moderate humidity with flooring manufactured at 11% MC, while Mt Isa has low variable humidity with increased gapping risk. Floor Sanding Australia recommends choosing species and installation methods suited to your local climate.
