Hiding in the house. Unnecessary problems or necessity?
About the dream of many a good cellarWho decided to build his house. And presents it as a single beautiful spacious room, where you will put all the gifts of their backyard and even wine (Some winemakers around). And I am sure that it is located under the house.
But in practice, not always it turns out.
When I was planning to build a house, too, I had about the same idea of the cellar.
But in the process of its construction realized that complete it will not make a high water table, like mine.
But I completed the work to the end, and here's why:
1. Make wiring systems engineering. (Drainage, water supply).
All slab foundation has a disadvantage in that the whole inzhenerki done before pouring the foundation and subsequent repair in case of breakdowns, It requires large and complex works, or does not seem possible.
And if you have a cellar, have access to all seams and joints.
2.The room for the pump.
Since the central water supply in my area do not have, it will have to get water out of the ground. But this requires the presence of special devices (filters and pumps, etc.).
I decided to place it all in the cellar, that all this is not buzzing in the house and did not take place.
3. Storage products.
Well, still used for its intended purpose, too, want to, at least partially.
But there are a few but ...
As I said before, because of the high water table, I had to make a very fine cellar: only 1.5 meters in height. And now there's not run away. Although for me personally, it is not particularly upset.(Not live to me there).
And in terms of the availability of engineering systems all arranged. The only thing with which problems can occur is with storage products.
The information I learned much later:
For normal, year-round, the preservation of products require specific conditions of humidity and temperature.
You must have at least a half meter layer of earth around the cellar for insulation against freezing and overheating.
But the presence of the top home does not provide it.
Therefore, what happens during the operation time will tell.
Well, the decision on how much you are all you need, is only for you, based on your situation.
And from what I encountered in the process of building a cellar, and what nuances should be considered read the following articles.
