A-frame bathtub that I would build now
The articleHouse-hut or A-house. Beautiful and inexpensive do-it-yourself frameI showed the type of frame structures that is gaining popularity. Such houses are becoming popular because of their simple construction (even on their own) and unusual and even a beautiful view both outside and inside (especially with a second light - no ceiling between the rest room and the bedroom room).
And if I now had a task to build a bathhouse with a comfortable rest room and a place to sleep, then I would choose the frame technology in such a design. It is simpler and the design of the bath is more beautiful than the classic timber.
I propose to see and evaluate an example of such a bath. In the west, such a house is called A-frame:
House-bath. Dimensions: 8x8x8 m (slope length 8 m). The ceiling height of the first floor is 2.5 m, of the second - 3.3 m.For the bath, I would choose the 6x6x6 m option.The ceiling height then turns out to be 2.5 m.
This bathhouse is on screw piles. At one time, in 2010. I poured piles using TISE technology. They cost me 16 thousand rubles for the log house. rub. Bored piles can be used here as well. It will take longer but will reduce the cost of the foundation.
Building plan. According to the project, the frame is made of dry planks 50x150 mm. Insulation 150 mm. Floors - 200 mm
Rest room interior. Spacious. Although they say that such sloping walls steal space, they cannot be approached in full growth. The interior looks spacious, but in fact there is not much usable space. As in the attic.
The steam room in this example is made at the highest level. Inside the steam room there is linden lining, the floor is larch. Ceiling lamp decorated with Himalayan salt. Stove - Varvara Skazka Terma Mini (heated volume - up to 24 m3). By the way, a very interesting version of a sauna stove and not expensive, although with natural stone, with serpentinite. It keeps heat better than its counterparts (which are completely made of metal). Example cost:
The shower room is tiled. Of course, all this requires a reliable waterproofing. But the shower room can be made a stall, leaving everything in the tree.
Bedroom. There is enough space for a large bed. If desired, the second floor can be planned into two rooms. But then the effect of the second light is lost.
Everything is beautiful, everything is good. Except for two things. The first is roofing material. A professional sheet is applied here. In heavy rain, the owners will not be able to sleep - the sound of the drum roll will not allow them to fall asleep. You need to choose flexible shingles - they muffle the sound of rain and are the best option for attic floors.
The second is the price for such a bathhouse. The company that built this facility offers to build a similar one for RUB 2,357,000 This is the cost of a small turnkey stone house. Too expensive because the cost of the materials used is approximately 500 thous. rub. The same amount of work. The profit, even an approximate one, is not difficult to calculate.
If you know how to build yourself, then the foundation and frame for such a bath can be built with an assistant, and you can carry out the finishing work yourself. For some, such a house is quite enough as a summer cottage option for summer residence and infrequent winter use.
