Care & Maintenance

This furniture is designed for indoor use.
Perhaps the greatest environmental damage to wood furniture comes from wide swings inrelative humidity (RH) in our homes. Wood absorbs and desorbs water as relative humidityrises and falls, and in doing so it swells and shrinks. Making matters worse, it expands andcontracts unequally along different grain directions. As humidity changes, the componentsof wooden objects are continually pushing and pulling against each other. This pressureoften results in parts of furniture no longer fitting together closely or becoming distortedor breaking from their own internal stresses.

The response to relative humidity changes begins with determining the annual average RHfor your particular space. Then try to keep the RH in the space where your furniture is asclose to that average as possible, generally within about 10% up or down. De-humidify inthe summer and humidify in the winter.

Be aware that raising the temperature lowers the humidity and vice versa. Thus, modernheating systems, which can rive down interior RH in the winter, almost invariably causeproblems for furniture. To counteract theireffect, you can either modify the RH by keepingfurniture containing spaces cooler in the winter or most importantly, have a good workinghumidifier for your home. A humidistat automatically works to balance the humidity inyour home so it is constant. Dry indoor air can suck enough moisture from its surroundingsto do permanent damage to wood, causing it to crack or split.

Remember, that not all woods are created equal. Two factors that help determine howrapidly a wood will lose moisture are pore size and surface hardness. A piece made from adense and hard wood will dry less rapidly than pieces made from softer woods.

Furniture that is sealed and lacquered will lose moisture more slowly than an unfinishedpiece while pieces with veneer finishes are not only stronger but lose moisture more slowlythan other finishes.

To help protect your wood furniture, take these steps:

Use a humidifier, preferably one with an automatic control system that can sense thehumidity level and adjust itself accordingly
Don’t over-humidify; that can damage wood by causing it to expand and contract
Keep furniture out of direct sunlight, which can cause it to dry out, crack and warp
If you can avoid it, don’t put furniture near heating vents; if you can’t, keep theitem 3 to 4 inches away from the wall, giving the heat and air space to circulate· Dust with soft dry cloth
Do not use liquid or aerosol products
To avoid marking, do not place rubber on surface (foot pads, etc.)
For soil build-up, wipe with damp cloth & dry
Do not use abrasive cleaners

Furniture Anti-Tipping Restraint Instructions

Attach one of the mounting brackets securely to the back edge of the furniture. Use the shorter screw.
Determine where furniture is to be placed and mark location on the wall for mounting bracket screw hole approximately 2 inches below the bracket mounted to the furniture.
Drill a 3/16 inch hole in the wall. Press the plastic anchor into the hole and gently tap until the flange on the anchor is against the wall surface
Position the bracket over the anchor and use the longer screw to securely attach the bracket to the wall.
Place the furniture so the back edge is in line with the bracket on the wall
Lace an end of the nylon zip-tie strap down through each bracket. Bring both ends together and slide the smooth side upright through the square-shaped end and pull through to create the “locked” position
Check to make sure the strap is securely laced and locked to the brackets.
