All about modular baths

Becoming the owner of a luxurious bathhouse on a suburban plot is the dream of every person, but not everyone has enough time to erect it. In the summer time various troubles on the plot interfere, and in the winter time no one wants to do construction works because of the accompanying difficulties.

Wooden baths, made of modular blocks, have a number of advantages.

1. Modular bath can be erected at any time of the year, even in extreme cold. Moreover, the material used in the construction process is not afraid of even the strongest temperature fluctuations. The absence of wet work makes construction in winter simple and fast.
2. Efficiency. If the assembly of all structural elements will be handled by one person, it will take no more than two weeks. Most of the time will be spent on interior finishing.
3. Modular baths can boast of increased heat preservation. The use of advanced materials for thermal insulation makes it possible with a fairly small thickness of the walls to save significantly on heating.
4. The structure does not shrink even with its long and active use. If you build such a sauna from a bar, then after a few years it will give shrinkage, which will negatively affect the interior decoration. During the construction of the modular bath is used wood, which was dried in advance. Therefore, you can not worry about cracks in the wall in the future.
5. The construction of the steam room does not require the involvement of large-sized equipment, since all the structural elements have a small mass. This allows them to move them with the help of a few people.
6. The minimum mass allows you to not build serious foundations.
7. Engineering communications can be hidden in the wall, which positively affects the appearance of the bath.
8. Excellent noise insulation. Mineral plates are usually used as a heater, and they are famous for their ability to reduce noise.
9. Durability. Under the condition of proper construction and use, such steam rooms can last more than 80 years.
10. The erection of modular structures on your plot can be carried out without obtaining the appropriate permits.
11. Affordability. The cost of constructing such an object is much lower than the cost of building a traditional bathhouse.
12. If you move, you can quickly disassemble the bath and install it on a new site.
13. Modular baths are sold in a complete set, which allows you to avoid spending money on various details and form a budget in advance.

There are not many disadvantages of modular baths, but they are there.

1. Lack of any original design solutions. All designs are developed in such a way as to provide a high level of functionality, so there can not be any details designed to give the bath an individuality. The best thing that can be done in this regard is to paint the walls and the facade.
2. The assembly process is simple enough, but it is best to get help from a specialist, because not everyone is able to understand the manufacturer's instructions.

The traditional material for the bath is woodHowever, due to the emergence of new materials and technologies on the market, other varieties have also become widespread. One of the most popular today is considered a summer bath planksIt boasts an attractive appearance and reliability.

The prefabricated sauna is built using the same technology as other similar buildings. The only exception is that instead of OSB panels for exterior cladding is often used board. This makes it possible to save a significant amount of money, while the durability of the building and its strength does not suffer. The only drawback is that the use of such materials heat loss will be higher than when using, for example, panels.

To date, a huge number of attractive and reliable bathhouse projects have been developed that can be built in a matter of days. One of the most popular and demanded today is the project "Malyushka", which includes the following characteristics.

Furnishing of each bath is individual and depends on the manufacturer, as well as the cost of the product. For example, the premium models may have more additional elements. In any case, the kit includes all the details and elements that may be necessary to assemble the bath and put it into operation. Usually the kit includes the following elements:

• plumbing;
• drainage;
• materials for finishing the facade;
• wind and vapor barrier;
• roof with the right slope;
• wood insulation.

And finally, some pictures for your inspiration.

• Modular portable bathhouse made of wood materials. The windows and doors are moisture-resistant.
