If you own a cladding business and you deal with timbers then you will likely know very well that unseasoned timber cladding are prone to insects and other microorganisms and so, it will certainly rot if leave as it is. Therefore, it is important to remove its sap out to reduce the moisture and you can easily do that by doing certain process that will ensure the reduction. Basically, you will have to suck out the water in the timber to preserve it for many more years and in order to do that, you can let it dry in the sun or by air or thru artificial heat.
In using air for seasoning of timber cladding, what you have to do first is to stack the woods in such a way that the air can flow freely in between. Cover the ends properly since that part easily dries out and it might leave a non-consistent drying process. Cover the top of the stack as well to keep off the moisture and make sure that the bottom of the pile doesn’t touch the ground since it might accidentally seep off water from the floor.
In using artificial heat for seasoning of timber cladding, it is usually the use of a stove or a kiln to generate heat while using a blower to force hot air to the timber and for most of the time, the woods are moved from one stage to another in order to make sure that the moisture content can be properly attained.
