Advantages of Kitchen Transfer
  1. More room.
    The tiny kitchen area is hardly a dream come true. But if some owners are able to adapt to a cramped room, others just uncomfortable to be in a small kitchen.

Cons of Kitchen Transfer
  1. Insulation costs
    And the loggia, and especially the balcony will have to be well insulated. In addition, probably will be followed by spending on glazing, flooring and other work.
  2. Duration of repairs
    You will have to gain strength and patience, because such a “move” of the kitchen to the balcony can be delayed. Moreover, in the course of work, difficulties may arise, because of which the case stalls. And dismantling the wall between the balcony and the kitchen may not be possible in some cases (if the wall is load-bearing, for example). View this post on Instagram

It should be understood that balcony Impossible. And the heavy refrigerator along with the gas stove will remain in the same place. After all, the balcony is a bearing structure that is not designed for an array of kitchen appliances. If we are talking about the loggia (which does not go beyond the bearing wall), then it can withstand the same loads as other rooms of the apartment, but otherwise the work is similar.

First of all, the place on the balcony should be insulated. And the thermal insulation should be no worse than in the rest of the apartment. And if it is impossible to transfer batteries here, then you should implement a heating system "warm floor" based on a heating cable.

You should also deal with the partition on the balcony. It can be partially disassembled, and the remaining part can be converted into a tabletop. If we are talking about loggia, then the partition can be removed completely, but for this you must first obtain all the necessary permits in the housing, BTI, SES.
