Key advantages &
installation rules.

Wide-Board Option

The cataloged 1x10 profile offers a broad hardwood face with reduced moisture response after thermal modification.

Clean Joinery

Sharp tools, dry material and correct fastening help maintain crisp miters and returns.

Assembly Guidelines for Trim & Moulding:

  1. Pre-drill screw holes when fastening near board ends and corners.
  2. Back-bevel bottom edges of exterior window and fascia trim to form a drip edge.
STABILITYReduced movement after thermal modification

Reduced tangential movement supports more consistent joints through seasonal changes.

DURABILITYProduct-specific rating

Thermal modification reduces moisture uptake and changes nutrients used by decay fungi; confirm the rating for the selected profile.

PROCESSHeat and steam

Real wood modified without added wood-preservative chemicals.

Can Thermo Ash trim boards be painted or solid-stained?+

Yes, but high-solids penetrating oils or semi-transparent stains are recommended to highlight the rich hardwood grain rather than hiding it under opaque paint.
