Installation manual - English
Installation
Begin by choosing a suitable location for the house. Make sure that there is enough space around the house
both for playing and for regular inspection and maintenance of the house (recommended: at least 1 metre on all
sides).
Since the foundation joists are in constant contact with the ground they must be t reated with a s pecial wood
preservative.
Level the ground.
ATTENTION: Do not press the roof boards together too densely and you will avoid moisture-causing bulging!
Leave an interval of about 1 mm between the boards to allow for swelling.
Depending on the climate at the house location, the floor boards can either swell or diminish. If the floor boards
are very dry while the climate is damp, they will easily absorb moisture. In this case, the floor boards should not
be attached very densely to avoid likely bulging. Leave some space (1-2 mm) between the floor boards to allow
for swelling. But if your climate is warm and dry, you can install the boards densely because they will become
drier and spaces may appear between them.
Maintenance
It is recommended to inspect the house thoroughly every 6 months. Regular painting of the house will prolong
its useful life substantially.
You should also check the condition of the roof to discover any leaks as early as possible. Eliminate leaks as
you find them to prevent rainwater from damaging the roof and other wooden parts of the house.
Make sure that all screws and bolts are firmly fastened. In lengthy periods of dry weather wood can shrink and
the screw/bolt spots attachments can become weak. Conduct regular checks and t ighten the screws/bolts as
necessary!
Be especially attentive when checking barrier and door attachments.
