Insulation kit walls consist of: 38mm x 90mm beams, metal angles and 19mm thick cover plates for external use. Remember that with external insulation the foundation must be larger.

Energy efficiency: Our solid wood walls add an extra U=0.22 and transfer virtually no heat or cold, increasing overall thermal benefits and comfort.

Tip: Mineral wool insulation is recommended for log construction. It is impermeable to moisture, has a higher R-value per inch than fiberglass, reduces noise levels and is environmentally friendly.

Roof Insulation: Use locally sourced materials to add rafters above the tongue and groove roof boards. The thickness of the insulation is determined by the required R-value of the ceilings to meet local building codes. Dense polyurethane foam provides maximum benefits, the highest R-value for thickness, and is water-resistant. These additional rafters also increase the roof's load-bearing capacity.
