Installation Instructions

Wall Instruction Care and Cleaning PG 12
Dry wipe as primary cleaning method. Occasionally damp wipe with water only. NO wet washing. If needed, use 1 cup of vinegar per gallon of water
OR 1/3 cup non-sudsing ammonia per gallon of water. DO NOT use detergents, abrasive cleaners, soaps, waxes or polishes. Wipe off spills
immediately. DO NOT allow moisture to remain on the product surface for longer than 30 minutes.
DO NOT attach objects such as pictures, shelves or television mounts directly to the laminate wall. DO NOT apply adhesive backed hooks or install
screws on or into the laminate wall for hanging objects. Instead drill clearance holes through the laminate and mount these objects directly to wall
studs with screws or nails. Drill the clearance holes through the laminate at least ¼” larger than the diameter of the fastener that will be used.
Precautionary Measures: Power tools should be equipped with a dust collector. If high dust levels are encountered use an appropriate NIOSH
designated dust mask. Avoid dust contact with skin and eyes. First Aid Measures in case of irritations: In case of irritation flush eyes and skin with
water for at least 15 minutes.
ATTN: INSTALLERS Caution: Wood Dust
Sawing, sanding and machining wood products can produce wood dust. Airborne wood dust causes respiratory, skin and eye irritation. The
International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified wood dust as a nasal carcinogen in humans.
IMPORTANT HEALTH NOTICE FOR MINNESOTA RESIDENTS ONLY:
THESE BUILDING MATERIALS EMIT FORMALDEHYDE. EYE, NOSE, AND THROAT IRRITATION, HEADACHE NAUSEA AND A VARIETY OF
ASTHMA-LIKE SYMPTOMS, INCLUDING SHORTNESS OF BREATH, HAVE BEEN REPORTED AS A RESULT OF FORMALDEHYDE EXPOSURE.
ELDERLY PERSONS AND YOUNG CHILDREN, AS WELL AS ANYONE WITH A HISTORY OF ASTHMA, ALLERGIES, OR LUNG PROBLEMS, MAY
BE AT GREATER RISK. RESEARCH IS CONTINUING ON THE POSSIBLE LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE TO FORMALDEHYDE.
REDUCED VENTILATION MAY ALLOW FORMALDEHYDE AND OTHER CONTAMINANTS TO ACCUMULATE IN THE INDOOR AIR. HIGH
INDOOR TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY RAISE FORMALDEHYDE LEVELS. WHEN A HOME IS TO BE LOCATED IN AREAS SUBJECT TO
EXTREME SUMMER TEMPERATURES, AN AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM CAN BE USED TO CONTROL INDOOR TEMPERATURE LEVELS.
OTHER MEANS OF CONTROLLED MECHANICAL VENTICLATION CAN BE USED TO REDUCE LEVELS OF FORMALDEHYDE AND OTHER
INDOOR AIR CONTAMINANTS. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS REGARDING THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF FORMALDEHYDE, CONSULT YOUR
DOCTOR OR CALL LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
