The outer walls of the traditional Russian bath are erected from a round forest, for which it is recommended to use coniferous trees. As for modern construction, in this case, using a round forest is no longer fashionable. Now the profiled beam is used. And this is not by chance, because this material makes the bath assembly faster. Walls from a profiled beam are light. Thanks to this, you can save on the foundation: a simple, column foundation is suitable for light walls.
Many are concerned about the question of what the wall thickness should be. And worries quite seriously. In this case, it all depends on the humidity, but it should not be assumed that the thicker this wall is- the better. Humidity leads to cold and rapid destruction of the walls. Wood has an excellent property – the ability to dry. Therefore, it is easy to remove moisture in wooden walls. Moreover, existence has the right to conclude that the thickness for walls from the beam does not matter much.
Dry insulation can also warm, it is only important to create a temperature inside. And warm the bath from the inside thanks to the properties of the tree is not difficult. Dry walls give good heat – this is very important. External walls need to be ventilated. Even in the cold, they have the ability to dry. The key to the durability of the wall is quick ventilation, regardless of its thickness.
And if you use logs for the construction of a bathhouse, you should know that they should not contain moisture. Raw logs are extremely difficult to dry. And their degree of shrinkage is very large.
For the internal sheathing of a bathhouse, aspen is usually used (sometimes- poplar and alder). This wood is with moisture resistance, it does not heat up under the influence of high temperatures, does not proper, practically does not emit the resin.
The bath almost does not need ventilation. To evaporate moisture and better drying the room, a small hole at the top is enough.
Now let’s move on to another question: what is the floor for the bathhouse and what is included in it? In simple language, the floor is what all the things that we will put in our bath will stand on. And the floor itself is included here (in the sense, a board or a bulk screed), a decorative coating (parquet, laminate), and, directly, you should know how to calculate the area of the room.
Just keep in mind that if you put the tiles on the floor, then it will heat up, so it will heat up that you cannot walk on it. But for the flushing area, the tile will be a good solution. In addition, she saves the floor from decay. Lamps in the bath should install not very bright. Before the wall decoration and the ceiling are laid with aluminum foil – it can maintain heat.
The construction of a bath is a process that you need to trust professionals, because this is a fire hazardous object. Therefore, professional knowledge and skills during its construction cannot be dispensed with.
