What exactly is the VILO SVP-01 3.85 m variant in the LATIVA store?

The product is listed as SVP-01 with a length of 3.85 m only in the Swamp Oak decor, SKU LT-5697. Shopify indicates PVC-U, effective width 254 mm, and weight 1.960 kg/m². This is a specific wood variant and should not be replaced with the solid-color SV-01 just because of similar geometry. When ordering, the model with the letter P, the decor, and the SKU are verified.

What is the effective coverage of one VILO SVP-01 Swamp Oak panel?

With a length of 3.85 m and an effective width of 0.254 m, a full SVP-01 covers approximately 0.978 m². This value is for the face coverage after locking the panels, not the total profile width. The actual order includes cutting around corners and openings, temperature joints, and reserve. Profiles for base, connections, and ends are calculated in linear meters.

Does the VILO SVP-01 3.85 m come in other colors besides Swamp Oak?

This Shopify product is available in exactly one variant – Swamp Oak with code LT-5697. White, cream, beige, light green, and light gray are listed under the separate SV-01 product and are not variants on this page. If the project combines panels, not only color proximity but also the exact model, locking, profile section, and compatible system of moldings are checked.

How is space left for thermal movement in VILO SVP-01?

The 3.85 m long profile is installed with end joints according to the panel table for up to 4 m: from 5 mm at 35°C to 9 mm at 5°C. Screws are placed in the middle of the factory holes and do not block the panel. The official guide accounts for about 0.7 mm linear change per meter per 10°C difference, so tight wedging in the profiles can cause warping.

Can SVP-01 be screwed directly through the panel face?

No, the standard fastening is done through the provided elongated holes, with the screw centered and having slight freedom under the head. Drilling through the visible surface blocks thermal movement and creates an unnecessary penetration point. Finishing moldings are fixed according to separate rules. The type and length of screws are chosen for the specific wood or metal substructure.

How is a facade made of VILO SVP-01 Swamp Oak maintained?

For normal dirt, the guide allows a solution of household detergent and water up to 40°C, followed by rinsing with clean water. Solvents, strong bases, or corrosive detergents are not used. Objects and plants in constant contact with the facade can cause uneven color changes, so the surface is kept free and ventilated, and local stains are removed promptly.
