Important note
To "
VALIDATE
" the guarantee, adequate provision must be made to ensure
ground contact is avoided and air is able to circulate underneath the building.
Placing the building on a concrete pad or slab base is acceptable provided that the
building is not allowed to sit in pooled water during wet conditions.
If the building is to sit on soil or grass it
MUST
be erected on pressure treated
wooden 50mm x 50mm or similar bearers
(These are not supplied in the kit).
Rowlinson Garden Products recommend using pressure treated bearers with all
buildings on any type of base.
It is recommended to drill pilot holes with a
3mm drill bit for all screws in this section.
