Let's go to the glory

Construction arrangement in the country area: Warming technology pair, features of interior decoration, installation of electrical wiring, selection of lamps

Build it consider her duty and owners of small cottages, and the owners of spacious houses with several bathrooms. It and others usually do not regret funds and are creatively suitable for the decoration of this room. After all, the bath is not a luxury, but a hobby. Or even passion, and very useful for health.

Sometimes an impetus for the beginning of work on the article in the magazine "IVD" becomes a letter to the editor. It happened this time. Our correspondents were spouse-pensioners Nina Alexandrovna and Valery Ivanovich. Avoid daches, most of the year they spend on their plot located in a picturesque place near Mozhaisk. Not so long ago finished building a warm log house. Shielded household (the owners lived in it until the house was ready) thought to adapt to a bath with a pair in the most economical way. I thought to get acquainted with the practice of this construction. We decided that this topic would be interesting to many readers.

Finnish or in Russian?

CariittiTiTIttIti and a bath ceremony clearly distinguish the Russian steam room from the Finnish sauna (in the last air temperature above, and the humidity is lower). But in the practice of construction, this distinction does not affect - in the same case, the same constructive schemes are used. Apacks Masonry furnaces are rare today, there is no fundamental difference in the installed equipment. The only nuance: if you plan to wash right in the steam room (so forced to do those who have no bathroom with hot water in the country), you have to arrange a drain floor of the terraced system (about how to do it, see "IVD", 2007, no eleven).

Learn in practice

Nowadays, an old way to build a bath is of large logs is too expensive. Kschasty, modern insulation and waterproofers allow you to adapt to the pair of almost any room. But before starting to work, the audit of all supporting structures should be conducted. In the case, removing several inner covering boards, the owners found out that the frame from the pine timber is still strong, but the glass gamble is noticeably died inside the shields. However, the existing filling was decided to isolate, not touching. The room was divided into two equal parts with the help of a frame partition: one half was taken under the dressing room and a rest room, the second-under the steam room and the wet. The latter was insulated from the inside on universal technology, widely used in frame, and in chopped, and in stone (brick, block IT.D.) houses. We describe it.

1-2. Perfect humidity contributes to the damage to wood fungus. It is important that all hidden cavities are well ventilated. Therefore, not only the shelves (1), but also armrests and head restraints (2) do with ventilation slots.

3. On the floor in the sauna, it is best to lay ceramic tiles. Such a coating is waterproof and hygienic, but it is cold and slippery. Therefore, on top of the tile, removable "trap" from oak or lime rails are filling.

4. Footage for the Kamenka is advisable to make fireproof heat-treated wood.

First of all, the walls are tightened with vaporizolation material. Previously, in most cases, Parchment was used, however, during the course of augventers, a specific smell was maintained. Therefore, today is often used by aluminum foil on paper-based, material that does not emit any volatile compounds and quite affordable. Foil is glued either fasten with brackets to the walls (reflective layer inside the room). At the next stage, the crate and laid insulation. The latter is the plates from the stone wool Rockwool (Denmark) or Paroc (Finland). There is practically no alternative to this material, since almost all insulation based on polymer-foam polyethylene (PPE), gas-filled polyethylene (NPE), polystyrene foam, polypropropyl IDR - are susceptible to heat-oxidative destruction and under the influence of temperature above 70s (asauna heated and up to 90s) start literally Contact dust. Of course, this happens not in one year, but still for the service life in the conditions of steam room, polymer insulation will not be equal to the stone cotton.

Aromatic seasoning

Strengthen the wellness effect of the bath procedure using a healing pair, as well as massages using special oils. It is necessary to use non-chemical flavors, but natural essential oils and herbal beams. To obtain therapeutic pairs, they are mixed with water (2-3kap of essential oil or 1/2-channel herbal beam over water), which watered hot stones. At the same time, you must first splash on the stones of pure water to avoid the smell of Gary. Saying plants its useful properties. Lavender tones and improves mental activity. Eucalyptus helps with chronic hymorite and pharyngitis. Oils of all conifers have a pronounced antiseptic effect and remove inflammation in bronchops and lungs.

For crates take well-dried pine brus with a cross section 5050 or 5040mm (standard thickness of plates from mineral wool-50mm). They are naked or screwed to the wall with a step of 55-59mm (also based on the sizes of the plates) vertically or horizontally, depending on which direction you plan to put the plating board. Insulation, along with the crate tighten the foil. It will reflect infrared radiation, providing fast and strong heating of the sauna, and besides, it will not give a couple to penetrate the head of the insulation. The specialists are recommended to use not paper with spraying, but a real foil with a thickness of 5-10mkm, as it has higher reflective and sealing abilities. However, work with this not too durable material requires caution and certain skills. Foil strips are fixed with an adhesive of 70-100mm, sizing aluminum scotch joints. You can also apply a foil insulation, but it will cost somewhat more expensive than foil and mineral wool separately. Yes, and it will not be possible to save on labor costs, because still you will have to tighten the foil bars of the crate.

Warming flooring and steam ceiling apply similar technology. The base of the base under the floor coating on the floor is recommended to use waterproof plywood with a thickness of 10-12mm laid in two layers or a thickness of 16-20mm - in one layer.

Warming steam room: the walls were tightened with a steam-insulating material and screwed up a laminate from Bar 5040mm (5). Squeezed plates of insulation (6). Tightened the walls of the foil (7). Keep the counterclaim from the plates 5020mm, and it was done so that all the space under the skin was ventilated (8). The condensate formed on the foil will evaporate and go to the ventilation inventory (9). The walls were separated by linden with linden (10).

We carry the beauty

From the inside the sauna is traditionally separated by a tree, most often with a clapboard, in a rare case, imitating a log (blockhaw) or a bar. It is undesirable to use lumber from coniferous rocks, since, heating, they are isolated by resin, and you will have to stay away from the walls of the steam room. For the sauna, the lining of Osin, Linden, Alder, Cedar will fit.

11-12. The thermometer and the hygrometer in the sauna can not do. These devices are sold both individually (11) and in the combined version (12).

The cost of materials depends on the variety and wood breed. The most accessible aspen lining is from 350 rubles. For 1m2. The lime and alder lining of the AB variety (in the marking of some manufacturers "select" or "Extra") has no bitch and defects and costs at least 750 rubles. For 1m2. Board Sorthas (Oh, "Natur") with small bugs, color transitions, small marriage of processing at least 1.5rd is cheaper. Exotic-Far Eastern and Canadian cedar or Chinese Abashi-approximately in 5 times more than alder and linden.

Without preservatives!

At high temperatures, many chemical compounds are decomposed, and then harmful volatile substances are distinguished into the air. Therefore, in the bath should not be used plastic and chipboard, as well as apply lacquer and paint wood to protect wood (with the exception of natural oils specially intended for this composition). Wood, including the bars of the frame under the trim, the counter-crate, the base of the IT regiment., It is impossible to cover fire-protected impregnations - they contain poisonous substances. If you want to increase the service life of the carrying elements of the structure, it is better to make them from the resinous wood of larch either from heat-treated pine. Then they will "live" at least 15 years. By the way, heat-treated wood almost does not burn, and it is from her that they make a fence around the heater.

Since the price of the material is high, we advise you to choose the length of the boards with such a calculation to minimize the amount of waste. It is not difficult, as the lining has a different length - 1-3m (step - 100-200mm). The lining up to 1.5m long tiles at a lower price. However, sometimes it is simply a marketing move, as the short board most often belongs to the variety. The lining is navigated either vertically or horizontally (in the latter case, using stainless steel curvatures.

13-15. Blockhouse (13.15) in approximately 3 times more expensive than polished lining from the tree of the same breed (14).

Everywhere light

As a rule, in the sauna arrange hidden wiring, while applying a special heat-resistant cable (with the CPC, PVKV or RKGM marking). It is paved under the walls of the walls and the ceiling inside the polyethylene pipes (steel pipes and flexible metal workers can not be applied). Each chain is protected by the UZO with a leakage current of 10mA (cost - about 1600 rubles). Valid dreams from a conventional Machine reacts to the current leakage, breaks the chain and does not allow to develop a short circuit. Therefore, even touching a bare wire, you will not get a strong blow to electricity. Another way to achieve a high level of electrical wiring security is to use a voltage of 12V. To do this, it is sufficient to purchase an electronic lowering transformer (its price is 600-1200rub. Depending on the output power).

16-18. Ornaments of decorative illumination Mass: Fiber optic minibers and lamps with illumination (16), hidden by backdrops light tubes and colored beams under the shelves (17).

19. The factory devices, even specially designed for saunas, are traditionally closed by protective-decorative lampshairs from thin rails (price- from 300 rubles).

Special lamps with ceramic housing and a milling glass ceramic casing and a milling glass beam. They are issued by such firms as EOS, Linder (Burgnia), Harvia (Finland). The cost of one device is from 800 rubles.

You can also mount a variety of decorative backlight systems, fiber optic with a starry sky effect, a northern light or flame (such electrical appliances produces, for example, Cariitti, Finland). True, it is quite expensive pleasure. Thus, the system from one projector and eight point lamps Cariitti will cost about 20 thousand rubles.

20-21. The stove has to be put near the combustible structures. The latter is required to protect basalt cardboard and brick masonry on the edge. When assembling the modular chimney of the heater, the joints of the pipes are sealing a heat-resistant sealant.

22-23. Finish the steam room, you can give the will of fantasy, for example, decorate the ceiling "wheel" glued from trimming cedar rails (22), or an exclusive lamp with a wooden frame of handmade (23).

Instead of imprisonment

The arrangement of the sauna in the country of Nina Alexandrovna and Valery Ivanovich finished exactly 1 week. True, the costs slightly exceeded the preliminary estimate in which not all articles of consumption were taken into account. But after the first procedure, the spouses became true connoisseurs of the bath and no seconds did not regret the resources. Now they caught fire the idea to arrange a sauna in an urban apartment and promise not to lose touch with us. Therefore, in the future we hope to tell readers on how to organize a pair in the city.

Slant with taste

"ITS Sauna" The main element of the "Furniture" of the sauna-shelves. Almost always, they are built by a construction method, that is, they make a frame of a cross-section of 5050 or 7050mm. From above on the frame, special boards with a thickness of about 30mm with rounded edges, leaving the gaps of several millimeters width. At the same time, a hidden fastener "Planumbix" ("ABC Forest", Russia) or similar is used. The risers are closed with a clapboard, but this skin should not be taken to the pool to clean the steam room. Shelves, as a rule, make 400-600mm. If the ceiling height allows, it is better to arrange two- or three-tier shelves. Then you can choose between almost unbearable heat "gallery" and the comparative cool "parquet" (on the upper shelves are usually lying, so they are somewhat wider).
