Budget aerated concrete finish: facade insulation blocks
How to save on home decoration of concrete blocks
In the area of suburban housing one of the most popular wall materials today are different blocks, including aerated concrete. Like the other species, they are in need of finishing, which will carry out protective and decorative functions. Given the cost of facade materials and services, the majority of homeowners trying to choose the least expensive way of finishing. In a previous article already described an economical optionWhich do not involve large financial investments and time-consuming. In this material, we will also discuss the budget aerated concrete facade of the proposed members of the portal FORUMHOUSE.

Features concrete blocks
One of the advantages of this construction material is the minimum thermal conductivity due to the porous structure. Depending on the region of residence and the thickness of the wall, you can either do without insulation or to use a small layer of insulation. Supporters SFTK systems (thermal insulation composite system façade) and ventilated facades believe that even wall insulation of aerated concrete is necessary to further reduce the operational costs of heating and conditioning.
There is also the opposite view, that the unit costs of these systems will pay off for decades and spent on them impractical.
But even in its original form gazoblochnye walls can not leave - they look unpresentable, and to external factors sensitive. When finances very tight, "stagnate" for several years and can be on the water-repellent agents, impregnation protect the facade from getting wet, although the question is not about decoration. Therefore, even without doutepleniya, immediately after construction, or some time later, the owners proceed to the beautification of the facade.
And then often have difficulty with the choice of materials - high water vapor permeability of aerated concrete somewhat limits the possibility of finishing. In order to preserve the principle of increasing the capacity of the layers from inside to outside, surface finish should also be permeable. The easiest way to paint the walls "breathing" facade paint, but no training is pointless, since the even the most opaque formulations will not be able to block the characteristic texture of the blocks, even if the clutch ideal. Because of what is necessary to equalize before painting the walls with plaster or veneered panels or tiles. And in order to cut costs, you can use tile homemade - dissolving blocks.

Interestingly next facade. Looked at from a friend. The house is built of silicate blocks, laid on the adhesive. The facade is made of the same blocks napilennyh into pieces in a plate machine. Along the perimeter of the edge is removed, and it turns out that something like tiles, which are put on the glue. Then there will be painted.
Visually facade is obtained same as when removed from the block chamfers another during laying, it is easier and cheaper, but also the present method has advantages.
- Overlapping all seams, they are the same, cold bridges.
- Less quality requirements for masonry, which is very important taking into account the level of skill of performers main mass.
- You do not have to think of a nice layout blocks.
- No reference to the size of the blocks.
- Less difficulty due to non-ideal geometry blocks.
- Tiles can be stuck at any time, which is important when time is running out and there is no time to fiddle with the processing of each block and the ideal masonry.
As regards vapor permeability, the thin adhesive layer can not "clog" the moisture in the wall and the accumulation does not occur. As an option - not use dry glue mixture and glue in the foam cylinders.
One of the members of the portal, professionally engaged in the construction, according to the proposed variant is quite viable.

I also interested in this topic! I am seen similar options with milled groove at the seams of the finished wall and the subsequent painting. But this is a better way! Of course, more expensive, but has a number of advantages over a simple chamfer milling. I did not consider the cost of finishing the facade in other ways, but suggested that this method is not very expensive.
According to him, except that leveled the damage "Krivorukov builders" and the outer layer due to the overlap seams blocked cold bridges, at a trim there are other advantages.
- When the wall thickness is less than the allowable standards for the thermal resistance of structures or passes on the edge of this value, an additional layer of aerated minimum density (D300), which is a heat insulating material overlaps "Shortage". That is, the heat loss is still reduced, but the finishing costs are still considerably more modest than in the device wet or ventilated facade.
- When the window and door openings without quarters, concrete tiles can make the quarter "beautifully and efficiently."
- Unlimited design possibilities, allowing even the typical compact lodge visually add squaring and solidity at the expense of the right accents.
- The same method can be isolated corners, columns, frames and other elements, unlike the finished or homemade decor foam, aerated concrete is not required reinforcement serpyanku, close-fitting area and plaster.
And not only Igor considers promising ideas and cutting blocks and can be avoided only by processing faces remain.

Facade is excellent, too, have ideas to do the same! As already purchased blocks 45 m³ 625h300h200 mm, further wish outside oblitsevat blocks 10 cm thick and a density of D300, with chamfering.
A pattern can vary the larger blocks.

Sales began to appear partition blocks greater height, for example 500 mm. Figure when gluing on the facade can be more interesting. Still looking versions of the finished concrete tiles when the surface is not smooth, but with projections. If we take a block of 250 mm, it is possible to saw the squares of different thickness and sticking to the masonry. A painting is already optional. Of course, not the whole house, but some parts of the walls have turned out good.
As to the further process, pasted over with a facade of staining it is recommended to perform the specialized paints, designed for aerated concrete. Many manufacturers in the line have the appropriate products.
The facade, which has been discussed, after staining looks quite attractive.
Chamfering only recently been extended minimum, but every day these houses are more and more possible, and aerated concrete aerated concrete "take root." The main thing is that the thermal performance walls with this method of finishing the facade does not deteriorate, and even the tiles or squares decorate it depends on personal preference.
When the insulation need, but do not want to wet processes, it is worth paying attention to thermopanel or ventilated facade. Another interesting and original way to finish - liquid tube. In the video - how warm the house gas concretes.
