Many people, especially residents of large cities,megacities and both capitals with great pleasure buy themselves country plots and build there small or, on the contrary, rather large, low-rise cottages. The idea itself is certainly magnificent, but at the preparatory stage a lot of different, albeit pleasant, concerns and difficulties arise, including in terms of the choice of material for the walls. And in this respect is very promising .
Indeed, gas silicate (they areaerated concrete blocks have a large number of serious advantages in comparison with other materials. They perfectly retain heat in the room, have high noise-insulating characteristics, are easy to install, dimensional accuracy allows you to get almost completely perfect surfaces, and so on, it will be difficult to even count everything.
But there is one very serious moment thata certain negligence of performers, especially when building a house on their own, can lead to the fact that the house will turn out very cold. The fact is that the sellers, and some not very responsible manufacturers, believed that their “child” is so unique that it does not even need a heater, it is enough to plaster the walls.
For the southern regions of the country, this statement mayit has no justification due to very rare low temperatures, but for the northern regions and the middle zone of our vast country, such experiments are fraught with serious problems, even losing housing during the frost. For this reason, it is worth using insulation for external walls. At the same time, the reduction of vapor permeability must come from the outer to the inner layer. In this case, two problems will be solved:
- Moisture leaves the room outside, but not vice versa. When it rains, the humidity on the street is higher than in the room.
- Steam does not remain in the cavities of the blocks. As you know, it is moisture that is the main enemy of gas silicate structures, and heat insulators in this regard are an additional protection of the walls.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that the choiceinsulation, and especially its installation, must necessarily be carried out by experts. Otherwise, the walls of the cottage will soon begin to collapse, to be covered with cracks, and the rooms will become cold and uncomfortable. Be careful and cautious, and you will always run home, as they say, with all your might.
