| Wood Humidity | Wood is a hygrospic material. That means it is porous and accepts and gives off moisture depending on the environment of it’s installation. Wood products are best suited in a relative humidity level of 45%. Different parts of the U.S. or world will have different humidity levels throughout the year. Our lumber is shipped at 6-9% moisture content. You are advised to allow any wood product time to acclimate to it’s environment. A minimum of 2-3 weeks is the recommended time. |
