Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation Requirements:
Ensure the wall substrate is sound, level, and dry before fixing. While the cladding can be fixed directly to timber battens, ensure you have appropriate `cavity barriers` installed if required by local building control to meet the D-s3, d2/(AHM) fire classification standards.
Tools Needed:
- Fine-toothed hand saw or circular saw for trimming
- Corrosion-resistant fixing nails or screws
- Spirit level for maintaining alignment
Care Instructions:
To maintain the Rosewood finish, avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or solvents. A simple wash with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is sufficient to remove dirt and surface debris. Avoid high-pressure washers, which can force water behind the cladding panels if not sealed correctly.
