How to build a bath with your own hands: projects of 3 to 4

Living in a private house has a lot of advantages: the presence of clean air, the peace and quiet of rural life - all these factors generate positive emotions. The presence of a bath can not contribute to an additional positive mood.

A 4 x 3 meter bath is an ideal option for a family of 4 people and guests. Before you start building walls, you should select the appropriate section, prepare the necessary communications.

Often the bath is built as an additional extension to the house, and there are a number of good reasons for this.

• the proximity of the communications center (water, sewer drain);
• thermal conductivity factor, when one of the walls of the bath is an integral part of the house;
• comfort, when from home, without going outside, you can immediately get into the room.

Any bath consists of several blocks:

• steam room;
• shower room;
• bathroom;
• waiting room;
• restroom.

The main material for building a bath is logs. It is necessary to take into account the fact that the thickness of the material in this case will reduce the floor space.

It’s not difficult to build a 3x4m sauna with your own hands., here it is not necessary to have experience, it is only important to correctly make the project documentation.

Before you make a plan of the future object in the country or a country house, you should remember the important details. The room is divided into several compartments, and their sizes must be strictly proportional.

For this, it is recommended to have a good idea of ​​how much a person will usually relax in a 3 by 4 bath. This seems to be the main parameter with respect to which the dimensions of the future premises will be built.

The area of ​​the premises may not be the same, but their size will be dictated primarily by this factor, the basic size of 4x3 meters.

You should always be aware of the danger of fire, therefore, when installing the furnace, you must comply with all fire safety measures. Very often, the furnace is arranged in such a way that the furnace door goes into the dressing room.

This allows first of all:

• save heat in the cold season;
• effectively use the vacated space.

In technical terms, the preparation of a plan-scheme does not pose any difficulty, for this it is not necessary to have a higher engineering education.

When you lay out a plan, you should remember a few important things.

• Entry is allowed from either side.
• The closer to make the sewage flow in relation to the main object, the cheaper the cost of construction will be and the easier it will be to operate.
• The steam room in most cases is made more spacious than all other areas. It is equipped with wood or electric stove.
• Wash can be done directly in the steam room.
• The width of the shelves varies, but most often their sizes range from 40 to 70 cm.
• The bathroom and shower often unite and turn into a separate room.
• The rest room is heated by heat coming from the stove and from the steam room. If the room is normally insulated and warmed, then this will be enough so that even in the bitter cold there is an acceptable temperature in the rest corner.

Often, homeowners build a separate object, which is separate from the main house. Bath of this type is popular from time immemorial, it is often possible to meet in our time. It turns into an autonomous object, on which there is a large veranda, a porch and the like. In fact, the bath becomes a universal complex, where you can not only relax, but also sit at a large table with friends and relatives, watch a movie, drink tea, and so on.

The terrace is not so small, ranging in size from 150 to 400 cm, which is quite enough to fit 8-10 people at the table. A special role is assigned to the waiting room.

In the dressing room there is a possibility:

• store firewood and coal;
• in the dressing room you can make a dressing room;
• here you can equip a shower and a bathroom;
• make a rest room and a billiard room.

Particular attention is paid to fire safety. The area around the stove is wrapped in galvanized iron; gaskets are made of refractory material. The floors are also sheathed with metal, fences are made so that the coal from the stove cannot get onto the wooden floor under any circumstances. You can also sheathe and sheets of stainless steel, the thickness of which must be at least 1.5 mm. In any case, sheets of refractory material, such as flat slate, should be placed under metal sheets.

Tambour also has an important function, despite its modest size. This is a “pillow” that allows you to keep a unique microclimate in the bath, especially during the cold season.

An important indicator that should definitely be taken into account is the number of holidaymakers who will be simultaneously steaming. For three people, about 5 square meters will be enough. A waiting room can become a full-fledged rest room where equipment and even a music center can be located.The area of ​​the waiting room is calculated from the indicator that about 1.1 square meters is required per person. m

Water may be heated by the interaction of the tank capacity directly with the stove or boiler. In the washroom it also makes sense to equip the shower.

The device of the room depends on:

• furnace size;
• the amount of space between the stove and the table;
• how are the shelves in the steam room.

In the drawings with the calculation of the amount of space for one person, you can see a plan without taking into account the area required for the presence of a table, chairs, equipment, and so on. In the steam room, the length is more than two meters, the width of the shelves is more than one meter. Such dimensions create comfortable conditions for holidaymakers. Often in a steam room there are seats, the dimensions of such places are 0.5 x 0.5 meters.

Main advantages:

• protection from negative atmospheric phenomena;
• external area of ​​18 square meters. m;
• internal square 16 square. m;
• veranda 3 square. m;
• pair 5.4 square meters. meter;
• washing 4,3 sq. meter;
• recreation room 3.4 square. meter

It is possible to purchase a typical bath in a specialized shop, its price is approximately 480 thousand rubles without decoration and insulation.

You can build an object from a variety of materials, in any case, the room will be trimmed with wood. Wood is an ideal material, nothing has changed in this respect over the past thousand years.

Benefits:

• wood has an optimal thermal conductivity;
• does not emit poisons and does not contain chemistry;
• has an optimal coefficient of expansion.

The frame bath is carried out from wood. It is not uncommon for paired walls to be covered with conifers; linden is often used. People who allow material means, trim the walls with an Abashi tree. Besides the fact that it is a fashionable material, it really highlights useful components that positively affect the human body. Lipa also acts beneficially and has healing qualities. The linden differs in wear resistance and ability long to keep the form and color.

Very often in Russia, especially in the regions of Siberia, baths are trimmed with cedar. The tree has a number of useful properties, it emits special essential substances,which are beneficial to humans and have disinfecting qualities.

In this case, the bath can be built from:

• reinforced concrete blocks;
• cinder block;
• bricks;
• aerated concrete.

But most often the “box” is made in the form of a log house.

Cedar is able to withstand significant temperature loads and has a pleasant smell. Cedar is not recommended to trim the ceiling of the steam room, hot resin can ooze out of wood and cause skin damage. Wood should not be processed by any chemistry, especially for lining, which will be present in the steam room.

Larch is a material that is not as expensive as cedar or abashi, however it is also quite often used. It is necessary to add that for the steam room the material should be only of the highest or first grade, the economy is inappropriate in this matter.

When equipping a steam room you should not forget about waterproofing, it can be:

• mineral wool;
• ruberoid;
• silicone sealants.

Often, the walls are sheathed with aspen, wood - it is also quite functional, able to serve for a long time. The floors for the bath do as concrete, covering with clinker or ordinary tiles, and wood.If the floor is wooden, then it will not be as durable as concrete, for this floor it is recommended to use a tongue-and-groove board.

The dressing room is equipped in a very different style of interior. Recently, the Finnish style has been in fashion, now Hellenistic motifs are very often used. But also often used high-tech and modern. Modern materials allow you to arrange a rest room in accordance with the wishes of their own imagination. Often in such premises you can find marble, expensive species of trees or furniture made to order.

Russian-style baths are not out of fashion, and occupy the lion's share of the market. Furnaces made of stone and brick can also often be found in a variety of households; this material remains the main one when it comes into contact with high temperatures.

A lot of attention is paid to tiles ranging from super-expensive - clinker and ending with cheap Chinese. Tile is a durable material, there are a huge number of very different tiles on the market, there is something to choose from.

Another material that has recently been actively conquering the market is granite. This artificial stone is much stronger than ceramic tiles, burning it at higher temperatures. This is one of the reasons why porcelain is in great demand.
