Very often, during the construction of a bath, people follow the advice and recommendations obtained from unreliable sources or from people who have no experience or practical skills in this matter. This article provides exceptionally useful and correct advice that will help in the construction of a bathhouse.
At first glance, the construction of a bath is quite a simple process. After all, this is not a 3-storey wooden house. 10 years ago, everyone was engaged in the construction of the bath on their own, without attracting qualified builders to this, but now ready -made baths made by construction companies have begun in great demand. One way or another, the owner and customer of the bath must be aware of some nuances regarding the construction of a bathhouse.
The first question that is being resolved during design is the size and layout of the bath. The room should have three rooms that are heated: rest room, washing and directly steam room. The size is of great importance, because the future Russian bath should have enough space for a cozy and comfortable rest. But it is necessary not to overdo it with the size. The only room that can have a large area is a dressing room. The steam room should be compact, because the smaller this room will be, the easier and faster in it you can change the temperature-humidity climate. The large amount of the steam room will bring only problems with the construction and operation. Its area should not exceed 8-9 meters of square.
Another important aspect refers to the choice of building material for the construction of a bathhouse. The words that a wooden bathhouse in a fire can completely burn, not empty. At the same time, it should be taken into account that if a brick bath lights up, then the roof, floors, ceilings, sunbeds and all utensils will burn out. Only brick walls will remain to stand, which one way or another will have to be demolished due to the smell of Gary.
There are different types of wooden baths: chopped, from bars, baths made of galled logs. The most beautiful, durable and durable are chopped baths. Naturally, the price of them is the largest. Further on the properties there are timber baths. The least durable are baths and houses made of galled logs, so they are the cheapest. The choice of material directly depends on financial capabilities. Lip, pine, spruce are used to build the walls of the bathhouse. But the floors are preferably from larch, since it is the least influenced by biological factors.
What is the danger to the Russian bath?
The most common opinion is that the most threat to the bath is the stove that is drowned with firewood. Following one simple rule, the risk of fire is minimized: when a stove is a furnace, you need to carefully observe it. Also, before starting to steam, you need to put out the stove, scrape the ash and coals so as not to get rid of. Simply put, the words about the danger of a stove in a wooden bath are significantly exaggerated.
But a truly serious threat to the bath pares incorrectly made electrical wiring. The danger is that it threatens not only for the building, but also for the people in it. This danger is equivalent to both brick and wooden bath. Indeed, due to the reason for the short circuit, city apartments are completely burned. Only qualified and experienced electricians should be installed even the simplest wiring.
