The main works on the construction of the house are completed, and now the question arises of its finishes. And since the construction is wooden, not all finishing materials can be suitable for decorating its facades. It has long been a traditional clarification of chopped buildings with brick. Today there are many beautiful products of this category. But are they suitable in our case?
Wood is a natural material, the main characteristic of which is its ability to “breathe”. That is, through the texture of the log, air passes freely, thereby conducting natural conditioning. Since the tree has low thermal conductivity, the flowed air through the walls does not have low temperatures, as well as the outgoing air, it is not warm. Brick cladding of a wooden structure will lead to the fact that natural material will lose its main characteristics. Rather, the air will go out, but it will not be able to flow back. Moreover, the presence of bricks in close attitude, which easily cools and heats up, the out of the room will cool down from the room ahead of time. As a result of such cooling, condensation is usually formed. If previously condensate was formed outside the walls, then with brickwork it will form inside them. Probably no one needs to be told about the destructive effect of moisture inside the wooden material. The use of mineral wool as a heater can only aggravate the position over time. Therefore, the brick, as a finishing material for a wooden house, is not suitable.
Vinyl siding. Today in the construction market there are many offers from different manufacturers. A particularly popular type has recently become a basic siding under stone. The desire to clad your house in a stone, transferred to the production of its analogues and imitations. What is the peculiarity of such a finishing material? It is an component of the ventilated facade. And the key word here is “ventilated”. That is, the natural factor of wooden building materials is not crossed out by the owner’s desire to decorate the external walls of his home. The design of the ventilated structure itself involves free air access. The created gap and output holes allow you to freely go out and act its streams. To protect the winds of wind in this case, a windproof membrane is used, which is aimed at protecting against strong gusts of wind, and at the same time, it gives free exit of a pair, which, for natural reasons, is formed inside the operated room. The above advantages lead to the fact that so far the best facade material is vinyl siding.
