·         Treatment time does not commence until the temperature and humidity in the chamber have
stabilised and the core temperature of the timber has reached at least 74°C (165°F).
·                The duration of the treatment will depend on the thickness of the product (refer to table
above). 'Thickness' is defined here as the distance between spacers in the stack, regardless of
