Some fire retardant lumber can be a time bomb in you t yatd,.

It's happened to too many dealers. They were selling fire retardant lumber that breaks down structurally because of a chemical reaction to high humidity and high ambient temperature. Dricon@ FRTW has a superior formulation that didn't degenerate and didn't get its dealers involved in allthe financial and legal problems. The other producers have been changing their formulas and hope the chemical problem is behind them.

The leader across the boardl"

They're now saying they're finally as good as Dricon wood. But we've heard that before. Check your inventory. lf you've been stocking wood that's'Just as good as Dricon wood," listen for a ticking sound. And call one of the Driconwood producers on the right hand page.
