23. Acclimatisation
Important - You should note that acclimatising timber products by leaving in the room or a room with a similar humidity for at least 24 hours is essential if problems associated with shrinkage or expansion are to be avoided. Storing staircases or stair balustrading , for example, in a cold and damp garage for months and then using for immediate internal installation is not good trade practice. This is due to timber being a natural material that both absorbs and loses moisture. The rule of thumb to remember is 'timber plus water/moisture equals expansion' and 'timber plus heat equals shrinkage'. It is therefore extremely important to seal/finish your timber products once installed by painting, staining or varnishing.
