KDAT Wood

Benefits:

✔︎ Less Shrinkage & Warping: The drying process removes excess moisture, resulting in a more stable board that resists movement over time.

✔︎ Smoother Finish: Easier to sand, paint, or stain right away—no waiting for moisture to evaporate.

✔︎ Lighter Weight: Easier to handle on-site and install more precisely.

✔︎ Professional-Grade Appearance: Ideal for high-end projects where appearance matters.

Regular Pressure-Treated Wood

Drawbacks:

✔︎ High Moisture Content: Boards are often wet, making them heavier and prone to cracking, and shrinking as they dry out after installation.

✔︎ More Flex: Boards tend to flex and warp due to their high moister levels.

✔︎ Less Dimensional Stability: Can twist or cup as it dries, leading to less precise construction.

✔︎ Higher Maintenance Over Time: As the boards shrink and move, fasteners can loosen or become exposed.
