Thermowood: the use in the house and on the street

steaming technology

The technology on which the board is treated with steam, came up with the Finns. The wood is placed in a drying chamber. After removing the moisture from the wood supplied steam temperature of 200 ° C. During the processing of wood out excess water, gum, and polysaccharides, attractive to microorganisms that cause rot and mold.





From out of the drying chamber transformed the material, which is not afraid of winter cold, high humidity and rain. Steamed tree ten times less moisture absorption and maintains its geometrical dimensions.

After treatment with hot steam tree changes color to golden brown, dark brown or wenge. These shades are obtained in a natural way, depending on the temperature during the heat treatment. Unlike conventional toned planks painted steamed through, so worn it is not terrible. Exterior thermo different and highlight the texture of wood.

Using thermo house

Inside the house thermowood indispensable in wet and very dry areas. Where paneling and parquet deformed termodoska - retains its appearance

. Typically, the driest place in the house - under the roof. Often in cottages where there is no forced air humidifying, the humidity is at much lower rates (45-55%), while the temperature above 18-22 ° C. If the ceiling of the attic sheathing simple wood (eg paneling), she quickly disperse at the seams, and even crack. If instead put termodosku any breed - no cracks will not

. Not everyone wants to make out the kitchen floor tiles, especially if the kitchen combined with living room. However, in the kitchen quite humid microclimate, regular wood to deteriorate quickly. It is also useful thermowood. Covering visually integrate kitchen space and room, and the floor will retain their quality for a long time.

Another important advantage - coverage in the areas where the assembled system of warm floors. Place the top of the heats and cools normal wood element - it means to spoil it. Termodoska with underfloor cope perfectly: the temperature drops it is not so terrible. The only requirement - to use an electric heating system with a uniform and put the temperature up to 35 ° C

. If you are a passionate lover of flowers and window sills are made to your Cleave and orchids, which need to be watered, - make the sills of thermowood. In this case, the spilled water - not ruin the texture

. Steamed (but still positive), you can use a tree, even in the bathroom. This allows you to create a stylish and unusual design for the bathroom. Even in the bath or sauna thermowood - is indispensable because it does not respond to changes in temperature and humidity. She is heated in the shops, it does not flow from the resin, and the amber color of the material and the density of its structure would avoid rounding in contaminated areas.

Using thermo outside

Blocks of lightweight concrete easy to gain moisture. Therefore, the house, built of concrete blocks require additional coverage. Often they are plastered and painted. But you can use to trim and thermowood. It not only looks great, but also provides good protection for the main walls.

However, it is not necessary to sheathe steamed board all surfaces. You can decorate the house in part by highlighting the individual elements. Architects are now using not only the standard profiles cladding boards, and beams, for example, to simulate fachwerk.

And you can use termodoski only for finishing steps and the flooring of the porch and terraces. Termodosku enough to impregnate natural terraced oil - it will be less slippery. Or order the producer board milled.

In landscape design thermo used to cover paths, playgrounds and recreation areas. Properly laid flooring good choice for the garden, decorated in a Japanese or Russian style starodachnom.

To cover not only the use of the board, but also wooden tiles. You can use the material for garden furniture (benches, tables) and pergolas.

When using any conventional wood street design will have to restore the 3-4 season, steamed - maintain their appearance - for many years. The only condition - regular updating topcoat that protects the material from UV light.
