Pasos generales de instalación:

  1. Localizar puntos de montaje: Determine the desired location for your window box. For wood siding, use a stud finder to locate and mark the studs behind the siding. For brick walls, identify appropriate mortar joints or solid brick areas for drilling.
  2. Install Wood Strapping (for siding, if needed): If mounting on siding, it may be beneficial to first secure wood strapping to the studs to provide a flat, stable surface for the brackets. Ensure the strapping is level.
  3. Instalar soportes: Position the wall mount brackets at the marked locations, ensuring they are level and spaced appropriately for your window box. Secure the brackets using a drill and appropriate fasteners for your wall type.
  4. Attach Window Box: Carefully lift the window box and align the molded ridges on its bottom with the installed brackets. Press down firmly until the window box clicks securely into place. Ensure it is flush and stable.

  1. Add Potting Mix: Fill the window box with your preferred potting mix. The internal design includes water troughs that allow the potting mix to draw moisture from the reservoir.
  2. Plant Flowers/Foliage: Arrange and plant your desired flowers, herbs, or other foliage.
  3. Water Thoroughly: Water your newly planted window box thoroughly. The water will fill the reservoir at the bottom.

3.1 Watering with the Built-in Reservoir

The integrated water reservoir provides a consistent source of moisture to your plants, reducing the need for daily watering. Water is absorbed by the potting mix through capillary action from the reservoir below.

  • Riego inicial: After planting, water until the reservoir is full and excess water begins to drain from the overflow holes.
  • Recarga: Monitor the moisture level of your plants. When watering is needed, simply add water to the soil until the reservoir is replenished. The overflow drainage prevents overwatering and root rot.

4. Mantenimiento

4.1 Cleaning Your Polyethylene Window Box

Mayne window boxes are made from high-grade polyethylene, which is durable and low-maintenance. To keep your window box looking its best, periodic cleaning is recommended.

  • For general cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or brush.
  • For more stubborn dirt or stains, a high-power pressure washer can be used at a close proximity without damaging the polyethylene material.
