3. Verify that walls are primed or sealed before installation begins.

4. Verify mechanical, electrical, and building items affecting work of this section are placed and ready to receive this work.

5. Verify that stud spacing does not exceed 24” on-center.

6. Verify that HVAC systems are operational and building environment is balanced to end use conditions.

B. Structural walls are to be finished, with building completely closed. Walls shall be thoroughly dry before starting installation.

3.2 PREPARATION

A. Conditioning: Panels must be allowed to acclimate to a balanced environment in the installation location for 72 hours prior to installation.

B. Protect existing surfaces with drop cloths.

C. Except as directed by the architectural drawings, before installing, examine panels and arrange to achieve best combination of color, pattern, texture and grain.

3.3 INSTALLATION

A. Comply with manufacturer's recommended procedures and installation sequence.
