Although wood acoustic panel maintenance is a relatively simple task, it is important to carry it out so that both their sound absorption and aspect remain the same. In this respects, there are two different moments: panel maintenance before installation (of interest to fitters and installers) and their maintenance once they have been installed in their final location:
Wood acoustic panel maintenance before installation.
The place where wood acosutic panels are kept should be kept clean, dry and well ventilated. It is essential that panels be protected from humidity and rain, as water absorption can cause deformation. We therefore recommend that the material be unpacked at the time of installation and that the panels be kept for 24 to 48 hours at their final destination before being installed, in order to ensure that they adapt to the environment.
Please remember that the original packaging does not protect the material from rain, moisture and impact and that no loads should be placed on top of the material.
The place where the panels are installed should be under a roof and not have more than 60% humidity.
Wood acoustic panel maintenance after installation.
Dust and dirt on the surface of the panels can be removed using a damp cloth. Never use abrasives or products containing silicone. Any residual moisture on the surface should be thoroughly dried after cleaning to prevent damage. It is imperative that the structure of the panel is not damaged during cleaning.
