Building with own hands

House made of wood has traditionally been considered a symbol of home comfort and warmth. This is true, because the tree has excellent

Thermal insulation properties. But the wooden house retains heat well just in case, if it does not leave the house through the numerous gaps

And cracks are formed over time between the crowns. Naturally, in order to help keep heat in the house, all gaps and cracks have

Close up. And here there arises the main question – what?

In order to qualitatively prokonopatit cracks in the wooden house, traditionally resort to a variety of materials. The most “classical”

Of them are hemp, moss and oakum. As for the modern technological thought, a good competition to traditional materials is

Ribbon heater.

In any case, plug the gaps between the crowns should be on the same principle chosen for insulation material is driven along the perimeter between

Crowns. Caulking the bottom right to start at home and finish it at the very top. Typically, the process of caulking the walls of a wooden house hold

Immediately after the erection of wooden frame, and then – if necessary.

Perhaps one of the most popular materials for sealing cracks and gaps in the wooden house, and now is the moss. First, it is sufficient

Easy to find in any forest or wetland, and secondly, the moss has good antibacterial properties, provides excellent ventilation between

Joints, and its special structure allows the moss to absorb and give the right amount of moisture.

Tape insulation is usually made from wool, jute, flax or felt. Depending on the choice of a natural material,

Employee’s raw material for the tape insulation, such may have different properties and quality of insulation. The best insulation tape is

Jute padding. It is produced from the spinning plants and has excellent hygroscopicity performance, environmental friendliness and, of course

Of course, insulation. On the quality of insulation he felt a little inferior to flax. In addition, the county does not have the indicator absorption, which

Boasts jute. But the county has a definite advantage in terms of elasticity of jute. Tape insulation, made from flax

Felt easier and faster to caulk the walls of wooden houses.

Another modern material used for the conservation of heat in a wooden house is the insulation made from sheep’s

Of wool. On the qualities he teplosohrannosti far exceeds all of the above materials, besides such insulation is not compressed, while retaining their

Form a very long time, and has excellent insulation qualities.
