Jeannie in NJ Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 we have 3/4 inch 40 year old hardwood floors in our house. They are in need of refinishing some time but not now. Is it safe to use a steam mop on these floors? I usually just mop with a slightly damp mop with just water but am looking to get an Haan steam mop.

Plink Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Steam mops force pressurized steam into the tiny cracks in the finish, and will eventually turn those cracks black. I won't use a steam mop on any hardwood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
