Disadvantages of frame houses
Frame wooden houses have a small drawback, manifested during the heating season. Part of the heat from the house comes out, so thermal losses are formed. Therefore, materials characterized by high heat transfer resistance should be used as a heater.
The question arises: is there any benefit to spend money on insulation? To do this, you need to find out what components such a finish of the house consists. The components of the following: cladding on the inside of the house, vapor barrier, special insulation, wind protection, air gap with ventilation, as well as external cladding.
Elements of insulation
When warming, it is impossible to do without waterproofing, vapor barrier, and since heaters (fiberglass and other.) do not pass steam, I need ventilation. At the same time, the air flow removes excess moisture and does not allow it to be condensed from the outer side of the house.
Waterproofing is also a prerequisite for good insulation, since without it, firstly, there will be no protection against precipitation, and secondly, in winter, heaters are much worse performing the heat-insulation function. It is necessary to protect against the wind, since gaps are always present in the decoration of the house, which are 100% not. In terms of hydraulic – and windshield, it is good to use the superdiffusion membrane that lets steam from the inside of the house.
If, in order to save a poor -quality or vapor -permeable material, a greenhouse effect is formed, that is, the cooled air will be detained in a layer of insulation and as a result the condensation of moisture is formed. This will freeze moisture in the walls of the house, which, after thawing, provoke the process of decay of the tree. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to use all the layers of insulation described above.
So, what moments are important in high -quality insulation? Firstly, the insulation should be dry, otherwise it ceases to perform its functions. However, when the temperature decreases, moisture condensation occurs. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to create a vapor barrier, for which vapor barrier materials will be needed. These materials that have the shape of rolls are able to maintain thermal insulation properties of the insulation for a long time. They are mounted either horizontally or vertically from the inside of the wall, located close to thermal insulation. For the seams to be sealed, use buttonage jacket tapes. To date, this method of insulation of a frame wooden house is the most effective.
