Installation Advice:
As SmartBoard contains a high percentage of natural wood fibres there may be variations in colour & finished appearance. Once fitted & exposed to water & the sun SmartBoards will undergo a natural weathering process to a slightly lighter colour shade.
SmartBoard will expand / contract approximately + / ? 1mm per metre length or 3.6mm per 3.6m board. A gap of 5mm must be left between parallel boards & ends. This gap should be increased to 10mm when adjacent to walls or buildings.
The SmartBoards should only be fixed with 63mm SmartBoard coloured decking screws as they have been made specially for SmartBoard, do not require a pilot hole & are designed to create a recess for the screw head.
Use 2 screws per joist, with a minimum of 20mm from a side or end. The first groove on the ribbed side is ideal.
For domestic applications, the joist spacing should be a maximum of 400mm.
SmartBoard decking should be kept clean by regular sweeping & can be washed with warm soapy water, rinsing with clean water.
Pressure washers can be used with care. Do not let the outlet nozzle get too close to the decking boards. We recommend that a small inconspicuous test area is cleaned & allowed to dry before commencing to clean the whole deck.
