Finnish-designed energy efficient wireframe for 3.7 million Photo review

Due to high energy prices, energy-saving technologies are becoming more widespread. In the private sector, this translates into the construction of energy efficient houses. Here is the portal user FORUMHOUSE under the nickname VladislavNN1976, from Nizhny Novgorod, he built such a house for his family.

House project and parameters

Vlad drew the project in a popular graphics editor in parallel with the preparatory work - along the way, he decided on the dimensions, materials and tool base. The result was a single-story frame building with a pitched roof and panoramic glazing.

• Total area - 100 sq. M, terrace - 40 sq. m.
• Foundation - USHP.
• The walls are a double frame with a load-bearing inner wall, the outer one departs by 350 mm and serves only as a support for the facade cladding.
• Roof - self-adhesive roll material on OSB flooring 18 mm.
• Finishing outside and inside - imitation of timber 185 × 22 and 135 × 22.
• Insulation of the wall and ceiling - ecowool with a thickness of 465 and 600 mm, respectively, the base plate - 400 mm PPP.

The total area of ​​100 square meters, according to Vlad, is quite enough for a family of three. The layout includes a spacious living room combined with a kitchen and a children's play area, two bedrooms, two bathrooms (one of them with a sauna) and an entrance hall, combined with a technical area.

Engineering systems

“The set of engineering equipment turned out to be the following: VOC, water supply from a well, ventilation with recuperation and heating / cooling by means of a liquid ground circuit, water heat accumulator by 2 thousand liters, a solar vacuum collector with 60 tubes, a fireplace insert with a water heater for the shower and in case of a power outage in winter, ”says Vladislav.

According to Vlad, the foundation is the most time consuming and longest stage of his construction, but he deliberately chose the insulated Swedish slab for several reasons:

• A heat accumulator that will absorb, including the heat coming from the southern windows in winter.
• Finishing floor - polished concrete with black topping to enhance the attraction of solar energy.
• Communications - sleeves with water supply and sewerage pipes.

Panoramic glazing allows you to enjoy the views of nature (the site is located in a forest), visually enlarging the living room, and most importantly, it also works on the idea of ​​energy efficiency. The low winter sun completely enters the room, and the black concrete floor, in turn, accumulates solar heat with its subsequent return. On summer days, a canopy on the terrace helps to avoid overheating of the room.

Two years of operation

Two years after the completion of the construction, the craftsman is happy with everything - the operation did not reveal any major shortcomings. When asked what he did differently today in terms of design, constructiveness and "technological filling", he answers: "Rather, by a machine I would use time to improve the efficiency of the workflow, simplify some little things and decisions when construction. It would be possible to shorten the time and complete the heat-shielding shutters. "

How much did the construction cost?

As for costs, everything is relative, for some it is a huge amount, it did not bother the topstarter. “I wrote down all expenses - they amounted to 3,750,331 rubles, including tools, filling the entrance, shed for materials, etc. This is without a kitchen and other furniture "- says the forum member.
