Wood treated with Protim® Aquazole should be installed in accordance with good building practice and codes, paying attention to ensuring suitable ground clearance, drainage and ventilation in the finished project.
All timber products should be treated in their final shape and form. Any surface exposed by drilling or cutting must be retreated with a suitable cut end preservative (Protim® Reseal Clear timber protective (or similar) preservative is recommended). Failure to re-treat may negate the value of the preservative and is a requirement of the guarantee. Rip sawing, thicknessing and planing are not permitted unless the timber is subsequently re-treated to the original specification.
Wear recommended personal protective equipment when handling treated wood (see “Important Information” section). A
Treated wood offcuts are not a hazardous waste and should be disposed of to landfill. Treated wood offcuts should not be burnt in domestic woodfires or barbecues.
