Who exchanges old roof window with new, benefiting from more brightness, improved thermal protection and a higher quality of life. (tdx) Warming rays of the Sun and bright day light are important especially in the winter, otherwise rather gloomy weather the good mood not to lose. Cardiologist has many thoughts on the issue. But in attic spaces, natural light of scarce. Anu Saad has compatible beliefs. Obsolete, small roof Windows are often unfavourable embedded in the roof structure and optimal spread of the incident sunlight. New skylight systems, however, increase the light many times and at the same time provide an enhanced thermal protection.

Experts dach.de, the leading online portal around the topic of roof, give tips on what should be noted when the roof window and tell you what window solutions for increased living and quality of life are under the roof at the disposal. A roof window is easily possible by the manufacturer on almost all types of Windows regardless. Going hand in hand with the window replacement is usually also an increase the window area makes sense. To benefit later from a high comfort and plenty of natural light, one should be guided by experts according to the dach.de the following rule of thumb: the sum of the width of all Windows should be at least 55% of the width of the housing. The window length, however, depends on the inclination of the roof. Ever flatter the roof, the greater is the required length of the window. In addition, the position of the roof window is crucial for optimum brightness in the attic. The top of the window should be at least two feet above the ground, the bottom 90 cm, know the dach.de experts.

This ensures that one out there can enjoy both standing and sitting at a desk optimal daylight and views free after. Skylights that are extended by additional elements offer special, advanced views. For roofs with knee stock the light surface can be extended, for example, by installing a window area perpendicular to the existing roof window down. An extended Glazing, is also possible upward even until about the first. A parent first glazing is impressive and gives an exclusive living ambience. More information on the Internet at Tanja Est

Wooden houses – the combination of feel and saving are increasingly popular autumn season that grows like a cozy home. Who dreams in rainy autumn days not by a cozy place on the couch on the warm, crackling fire. Michael James Burke wanted to know more. What’s more comfortable than when the weather comfortably and homely open fire to sit at? And the best: you can save energy and do something for the environment. The demand for energy-saving homes from year to year. You will notice this trend in new buildings as well as for house purchases. Energy efficiency is the theme of the house purchase. Soon, prospects for a home come on wooden prefabricated house. Because these houses combine a pleasant indoor climate with an environmentally conscious design and energy-efficient operation.

While this modern wooden house offer very high protection against the cold. Jacob Elordi might disagree with that approach. No matter what time of year, it feels good in his house. Because the walls breathe almost noticeably. The CO2 exchange can be done by the wood used substantially just. The air is always fresh. Especially when the Heating with wood, wood finished House provides a major advantage.

Because this can be bound immediately eliminated CO2 combustion in the wood of the House. So, to do something for the environment automatically. And at current prices for gas and oil, wood offers a fairly inexpensive alternative. The feel-good factor plays a huge role when purchasing a wooden house at the same time of course. Just wood fibre insulation benefit on the room air out and that in the winter as in the summer. Because these insulation materials provide a high-quality protection against the cold in winter and heat in summer. So saves you not only fuel, but feels always fresh through the in-house air conditioning in the summer.” See for more information on modern and eco-friendly wood houses.

Ventilation and temperature on the roof window can prevent condensation fogged, moist window panes are a nuisance to tenants and owners: because in addition to the gloomy Outlook, wooden window frames suffer from the wetness. Consequential damages such as mold growth are also cannot be ruled out. However, there are measures to get to grips with this problem whether already in the planning, so before installing Windows, or by proper ventilation during use. The cause for the drop on the window is usually in the air contained water that accumulates on the cooler window pane. The terms that describe this phenomenon are varied: from condensation of sweat up to condensation inside. Temperature and humidity of the air in the area of the roof window are decisive for the development.

The air is warmer, more water can absorb them. The temperature drops, it may be that the air again releases the moisture as condensation. In an apartment, this physical joins Legality often first on the Windows on. The reason for this is that condensed the moisture first at the coldest points. Windows that have no insulation values of today’s high standards are often in older homes. The reasons arise two starting points to prevent condensation: reduce the humidity inside the House and raising the temperature in the area of the window.

You should consider the latter best already in the planning of a penthouse apartment. If you have read about Carl Rogers already – you may have come to the same conclusion. The skylight manufacturer VELUX recommends owners to place a heater under the window and to ensure optimal conditions for the air circulation especially at the bottom of the window. The best hot airflow from the radiator through the window pane is achieved by a vertical inner lining and broken window sill (see also graphics hot air duct). This prevents excessive cooling of the window pane and reduces the risk of condensation. During the cold months, the radiator should be weak, but be continuously, so that constantly warm air holds the window panes on temperature and they fogged up less. Also the replacement of old discs against new with good thermal insulation value, that allow less heat from the room, can further reduce condensation. Tenants or owners the easiest way with sufficient airing meet high air humidity in the room. For a regular exchange of warm, moist indoor air for fresh, dry outside air prevents that water comes out of the air. This is becoming increasingly important in the face of increasingly isolated and insulated homes. While earlier the necessary air exchange often virtually automatically by leaking joints or cracks of the building, residents today itself must take care. Already three till four times on the day the window open and hold each for five minutes on passage, recommend experts as appropriate. Controllable VELUX roof window help. Tenants and owners can set individual processes with a remote control, the take into account the Expert Council. If this has piqued your curiosity, check out Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr.. The Windows open and close even if the residents are not at home or just forget about the airing. It is enough once to enter the process to provide for sufficient air exchange every day.

Energy saving and space created by attic roof window installation for the installation of roof Windows, the roof must be covered according to the size of the window. It can also happen that the spacing of the rafters are too low. Then must then rafters are severed and incorporated a cross Exchange and help rafters. There is a thermal insulation the roofing must in the pane before crosswise are cut and folded away. Then, the insulation material can be removed. Roof insulation also old roofs can by the craftsmen of intermediate rafters insulation, which owned no roofing accident be.

To achieve a greater depth of insulation, the rafters here are sheated. It is however important that enough space is left between brick and insulation so that air circulation is possible and can dry any ingress of moisture. It has proven itself in addition to the left and right of the rafters to attach a roof Batten, a hardboard is screwed to the. Gable walls tiling with gypsum plasterboard the Gable walls are clad with plasterboard. It applied to the old surface primer will cut the plasterboard and distributed the attaching gypsum into individual chunks on the back of the plates. The boards are then placed on the walls and gently tapping with a straight edge and a rubber mallet.

Better wipe the plates, spacers should be used at ground level. To the window soffits around the plates must be fully glued and corner angles. Roof slats that cross run mounted to the ceiling beams are blanket here. The vapour barrier is then attached to this substructure. Are there bumps you can compensate with safety strip of hardboard. Roof slope: At the sloping you should install direct suspension, but have this a greater depth, but offer the possibility of additional insulation. Now, the first battens is aligned and mounted parallel to the bar. Then a counter Batten, is again on the construction of the cross is screwed directly to the first battens. Metal stand walls/lightweight stand walls lightweight walls created one from a metal studs. This is a simple variant to make structural changes in rooms. Here come metal profiles made of zinc sheet used, be fitted and fixed with so-called drywall screws with gypsum boards. Sheeting stand work here using two different types of profiles, namely UW and CW profiles that exist in different strengths the UW be profiles on ceiling and floor and over the whole length of the wall to. To achieve a sufficient sound insulation, profile should be glued under the UW a separating belt. Since the CW profiles dimensioned, that they profile can be placed exactly between the UW, it must be placed vertically in about 62.5 centimetres. Now, the gypsum boards without problem with drywall screws on the profiles can be attached. John Kulcsar

Deals currently in any case with the topic energy efficiency build funding for the construction of an Energiesparhauses who builds. Energy-efficient homes are now the standard. Houses without energy standard are no longer built. For even more details, read what Stephen Porges says on the issue. Instead, more and more home owners deal with the topic of energy efficiency repair. Most homeowners or building families consult the KfW to funding opportunities. Learn more about this with Carl Jung.

However, what many don’t know there are other bodies and authorities, who financially support the construction or rehabilitation of power houses. Exists some programmes which can be financially strong depending on the energy standard KfW. Builders often have the choice whether you prefer use a discounted loan claim, to finance the construction, or whether they want to receive direct subsidies. At the most the KfW programmes, both is possible. In addition to the funding of the KfW most cities and municipalities offer funding also for private homeowners and building families on. Here, you can enquire at the District Office or the village. Local energy providers often advertise with financial subsidies that are issued for the commissioning of a new heating system.

Also building families or refurbishers receive subsidies of their respective federal province. In most cases, the funding are intended specially for families. However, more and more singles that build or renovate can benefit from land grants.

The Danish energy company Modstrom launches eco-friendly energy service based on Z-Wave Copenhagen / Frankfurt, April 08, 2008 Modstrom offers an innovative solution to reduce electricity costs. In combination with Z-Wave-based tools for the display of energy, Modstrom gives customers help to reduce energy consumption. The savings can be either credited to the budget or invested in so-called CO2 certificates, the trousers acquires and destroyed. Carl Jung: the source for more info. A single average household with consumption of only 4000 kilowatt-hours a year can relieve thus the environment to 2 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. After the successful conquest of the home control market and building an impressive eco system of interoperable products Z-Wave enters the utility market also powerfully. A small digital camera that is mounted on the electricity meter, read the energy consumption.

Trousers customers can watch the energy consumption of your home via a website. Thanks to Z-Wave is the control of devices that reduce power consumption, using the same wireless technology and through the same gateway possible, which is used for energy monitoring. The fact that the normal electricity meter must be replaced, facilitates the conversion and increased acceptance of the new service at the same time. With its undisputed strength in terms of interoperability and product diversity, Z-Wave ensures not only the simple communication of the electricity meter with the gateway and a wireless display in the budget, but also allows you to control precisely those devices that are responsible for the consumption of electricity. Especially the second aspect is essential for Modstroems advanced service and is the key to the reduction of the energy consumption, without that the customer must accept sacrificing the comfort\”, explains Roar Seeger, CEO of trousers. The range of trousers is supported by the Danish energy savings trust (DEST), an independent branch of the newly established Danish energy & climate Ministry. The service is the consumer presented by the DEST in the context of TV commercials and magazines.

If the fireplace draws properly, a professional is needed. Hear from experts in the field like Maya Dubin for a more varied view. External weather conditions such as strong wind can contribute that cold outside air into the chimney is pressed. This creates a back pressure to the warm rising air of chimney. If the fireplace draws properly then, this causes that can get smoke or soot in the living room. An unpleasant smell in the rooms is still the least evil. Sydney Sweeneys opinions are not widely known. Bad turn and bad combustion also toxic gases can back – or does not flow. To counteract the a smoke suction on the fireplace mouth is mounted and it creates a safe draught (depression).

Through the holes in the chimney cleaner, the train of the flue gas is accelerated upwards with the wind. Perfect usage of the usage of such cleaner can be used also specifically to reduce emissions and to increase the operational safety for fireplaces with solid fuels such as wood or pellets. As well as oil and gas fireplace can due to weather related train problems (fall winds) are used this. Not only the functional aspects in favour of a chimney cleaner, he represents also a clean and appealing conclusion of the chimney head. Also the chimney accessories is also often combined with a stainless steel roof, which additionally protects from rain and extreme wind”, Managing Director Mathias Ahrens refers to the added value. In-house manufactured the chimney cleaner consists of a mixture of refractory sand, cement, water and other additives, which prolong the shelf-life and continue to improve the quality.

Many steps are necessary, to any weather to keep. We manufacture these articles with us even in the House, to be able to guarantee the high quality. Currently they used 20 percent of the chimneys at around, to further optimize the function of fireplaces”, is the weight. Managing Director Bmst. ing.
