ABOUT WOOD "TREATED TO REFUSAT?"

American rJflood-Preservers'Association book of Standards CL-99, section 2.3.6 states "Treatment to refusal does not constitute an acceptable alternative to the minimum penetration or retention requirements specified under results of treatment except as specifically listed This applies to AWPA Standard C6 and for oaks in AIVPA standard C2."

State and local building officials are on the lookout for insufficiently treated Douglas fir lumber resulting from misinterpretations of the A'WPA standards.

When the iob calls for treated wood, the choice is obvious. Chemonite ACZA consistently meets building code standards for treated wood.

ChemoniteACZA is the only waterborne pressure treatment available to penetrate Douglas fir up to 2.5O+ pcf to assure structural integrity and compliance withA'$/PA standards.
