Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Proper installation is key to the longevity and performance of your artificial grass. Ensure a well-draining sub-base is prepared, typically consisting of compacted crushed stone or aggregate, to prevent waterlogging. The grass should be unrolled and allowed to acclimatize to the temperature for several hours before cutting and securing. Use appropriate tools for cutting and fixings for edges and seams.
Compatibility: This artificial grass is compatible with most standard garden sub-bases. Ensure the ground is level and stable before installation.
Care: To maintain its appearance, regularly sweep or brush the grass to remove leaves, debris, and dirt. For deeper cleaning, a mild detergent and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a hose. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure any spills are cleaned promptly.
