Familiar picture: Autumn, cold, and finishing the facade of the country house is still not over. How to arrange a house with an artificial stone at low temperatures and without loss of quality? Tell me in the article.
Features of the design of ventilated facades
Extend the time suitable for finishing and insulation of the facade of a country house, with the exception of a period of junior frosts, mounted ventilated systems. They consist of a carrier frame, a layer of thermal insulation and the external screen referred to some distance from it from the facing material. Such a multilayer design hides the wall defects, provides effective heat and waterproofing of the facade. And the use of durable finishing materials makes it resistant to external factors.
System of ventilated facade
Scheme of the attached ventilated facade: 1 - carrier / self-supporting part of the walls; 2 - insulating material; 3 - ventilated clearance; 4 - carrier subsystem; 5 - Tarbed facade anchor; 6 - cladding elements.
