When constructing a private wooden house, it is important to immediately provide that the ventilation scheme in the private house, as well as the ventilation scheme of the foundation and the sewage system, be included in the project, otherwise, being in constant dampness and without ventilation, the house will not stand for a long time and will begin to collapse, and unpleasant odors will be chase you everywhere. Usually, a ventilation scheme in a private house is planned before construction, and professionals should do this.
If earlier a wooden house breathed, receiving an air flow through windows and doors, and exhausted air through a chimney, then during the construction of a stone cottage the ventilation process is much more complicated, because special holes are needed.
Ventilation of the foundation of a wooden house
Of course, if you select a model from wood and build a fireplace, then the cottage will be ventilated by itself, but this will not work with the frame house, it is more airtight and you need a supply and exhaust ventilation system. You can verify this by looking at the photos of ventilation in a private house, which are posted on the site. Such photographs and diagrams will help you to find out how ventilation should be arranged in various places of the building. If you install special channels, then the photo ventilation in a private house will not be difficult, because the principle of its operation is quite simple. Only a professional can decide which ventilation suits your building.
The need for ventilation in the foundation of the house
- maintaining the natural moisture level in the basement;
- Prevention of premature destruction of the building;
- Depreciation during groundwater changes during the offseason.
Ventilation in the foundation of the house consists of two ventilation holes in the foundation with a diameter of at least fifteen centimeters. Sewerage ventilation in a private house consists of pipes that are connected to the sewer network and provide a constant flow of air. In addition, it is needed for silent removal of wastewater, and the removal of unpleasant odors. Local sewage without ventilation will not work at all. Sewerage ventilation in a private house is carried out using plastic pipes that are tightly interconnected.
The ventilation of the foundation of a wooden house should not overlap with other ventilation systems of the house, so if you are at a loss with the project and installation, it is better to contact specialists. But the ventilation of the foundation of the house is much simpler, so you can do it yourself if you wish.
If you need high-quality ventilation of the foundation of the house, then if necessary, contact specialists.
