Not everyone knows that the heat resistance of the wooden structure and the thickness of the materials used during the construction of materials largely determine the thermal balance of the house. For this reason, in some situations, in order to have the possibility of living throughout the year, insulation should be performed, which in turn will reduce the heating waste and reduce heat losses. In most cases, comprehensive insulation is performed, in other words, the outer walls, window and doorways, floor and roof are simultaneously insulated at the same time. The internal walls are advised to insulate only if the structure of the house from the beam is located on terrain with rather severe climatic features.
It is advised to start undergoing insulation after the construction gives a shrinkage (approximately a year after the end of construction work). At the same time, the building should be checked for the presence of a gap between the timber due to the shrinkage. When they appear, work is performed on the pounding of the cracks using tape packet, jagut fiber or other heater. Along with this, it is possible to carry out wall processing using a special antifungal and refractory agent, since in the future this procedure will not be possible.
If we compare between the galbed log and the beam, the latter differs in a more even surface, for this reason the insulation of the structure from the beam will not take much time as the insulation of the log structure. Although the technology of insulation, by and large, provides for the use of similar materials.
Buildings made of such material as a profiled beam are insulated in several stages. Work starts from the outside. In order to protect the structure, facing the surface surfaces is performed using special materials, due to which an additional wall is formed. The complementary barrier is made of concrete or ceramic stone, small blocks, brick and other materials. The designs made of natural wood, which are insulated with polysterol foam, hydrophobized mineral wool or glass wools, have proven themselves. In turn, heaters are laid between the table parts of the frame. External cladding is advised to do with wooden structures (boards of oak, larch, pine and other breeds that are resistant to negative atmospheric manifestations), which allows you to maintain a harmonious appearance and integrity of the brown structure. We should not forget about the implementation of the waterproofing and vapor barrier layer.
