Instructions for maintenance/colour treatment

Care instructions for articles made of:

Solid structural timber, softwood and laminated wood, untreated

The wooden parts of the kit are untreated, so a regular protective coating is absolutely essential.
Recommendation:
An initial coat on all sides with a wood primer (protection against fungi and insects), and then one coat each of intermediate
and top coat with a high-quality wood-preserving varnish (colour tones, UV protection, protection against weathering).
The following applies to wood panel cabins:
The initial and intermediate coats must be applied prior to assembly. Please ensure that the wood panels have dried prior to
construction. The top coat is applied after construction.

Regular varnishing is necessary to maintain the wood. Make sure the products are given good UV protection and
that the working guidelines of the varnish manufacturer are observed.

Douglas fir, untreated

If kits are constructed from Douglas fir without additional chemical impregnation, the material requires no further care apart
from regular cleaning with water of the patina that forms.
Recommendation:
If the wood stain is to be fixed, we recommend an initial coat on all sides with a wood primer (protection against fungi and
insects), and then one coat each of intermediate and top coat with a high-quality wood preserving varnish (colour tones, UV
protection, protection against weathering).
Regular varnishing is necessary to maintain the wood. Make sure the products are given good UV protection and that the
working guidelines of the varnish manufacturer are observed.

Softwood, impregnated

The wood has already received an initial immersion treatment with a water-based impregnation.
This protects the wood against fungal and insect infestation.
Recommendation:
The surface should be treated again after 2–3 sunny months at the earliest and should feel dry. Clean the surface before
treating. We then recommend one coat each of intermediate and top coat with a high-quality wood preserving varnish.
Regular varnishing is necessary to maintain the wood.
Make sure the products are given good UV protection and that the working guidelines of the varnish manufacturer are
observed.

Special care instructions for colour-treated products (SKAN HOLZ)

The colour-treated parts of our kits are treated with high-quality varnish.
In the area where it is applied this has the following properties:

protection against blue stain fungi

protection against damage caused by UV radiation

- no

flaking

reduces swelling and shrinking

lets the wood grain shine through

- thin

layer

Information on construction:

Each colour-treated kit comes with a container of varnish for repairs. Please stir thoroughly before use.

Untreated cut edges must be treated twice with this varnish prior to assembling the building element.

All screw holes or other damage to the wood surface of colour-treated parts caused by assembly must also be treated at
least twice with varnish during construction.

On site, the surface can be further refined by sanding it again with fine-grained sandpaper and giving it another coat of paint.

The following also applies in particular to colour-treated houses:

In the kit, the wall panels, as well as the door and windows on the exterior, have been colour-treated on one side

All parts of the kit that are untreated and mounted on the outside (e.g. exterior overhanging soffits or purlins, as well as the
inside of the door and windows) are unprotected and need to be subsequently treated on site with primer and at least once
with varnish. Once again, follow the instructions of the varnish manufacturer.

Maintenance:

The wood surface has to be examined at regular intervals for damage (at least once a year).
Any damage or drying cracks that have appeared must be repaired immediately.

Painting/varnishing needs to be undertaken as a long-term care measure to protect the surface. The required frequency
depends on the location and the conditions the surface is exposed to and must commence before damage becomes visible.

Please note that the printed colour samples are not binding.
Variations in colour are possible.
Storage marks on building components that are colour-treated on all sides are due to technical reasons.
