4 major disadvantages of low floors and narrow floor distance*** Let the renovation to solve the pain of buying a home

Inside a building in the upper and lower floors of the tenants, the home environment has its own advantages and disadvantages. Although the residents living in the ground floor to avoid the heat, sun and other problems, but damp, dark, poor ventilation, noise and other problems abound. There is also the narrow distance between the floor of the tenants will face these problems. So today I will analyze the 4 major points of the problem, and help you improve the living environment.

Pain point 1: poor ventilation

Because the ground floor of the house is not wide enough, the airflow is almost blocked by the neighboring buildings, resulting in the windows and doors can not form a good convection and the lack of air flow into the house, there are many closed walls and large furniture in the house, so that the air circulation is even worse. This is also the case with the narrow floor space.

Decoration points: reduce the solid wall

In the structural demolition, in addition to the main load-bearing walls, you can minimize the solid wall, designed as an open kitchen, the bedroom and the study through the bedroom bathroom and the bedroom with a glass partition can be improved.

Building materials: borrowing central air conditioning, fresh air system

Central air conditioning, fresh air system can keep the air is always in a dynamic state of operation, so as to ensure that the air in the housing is always fresh and smooth.

Pain point 2: weak lighting

For houses with low floors and narrow floor spacing, the main reason is that they are covered by nearby buildings, the light is naturally blocked out, and the light from the higher ground simply can't come into the house through the windows. Then the interior will be in a dim state for a long time, and you may have to turn on the lights for a long time to ensure the needs of daily life, which will be a waste of electricity and money.

Decoration points: expand the window area

Want to improve the lighting problem, you can first start from the increase in the amount of natural light transmission, the balcony, bedroom and other areas of the window area to expand, to a certain extent, will increase the light, the balcony and the living room can be used between the whole piece of floor-to-ceiling windows, bedrooms, study room bay window to choose a large glass windows.

Building materials: light-colored building materials

If the natural light is not enough to meet your requirements, then you can select light-colored, reflective building materials to further improve; and then more use of mirrored materials, large mirrors and windows to increase lighting.

Pain point 3: strong noise

The ground floor of the residence because of the proximity of the road, close to the outer streets of the road, you will hear a variety of sounds, especially late at night, the noise is more distracting. The narrow building distance of the building is more embarrassing is also possible with the opposite building each other can hear the conversation in their respective houses and television sound ......

Decoration points: wall coat on

To solve the noise problem, the first thing to start from the wall structure, in close proximity to the road and the street on that side of the wall or against the opposite side of the building of the wall, increase the laying of 1-2 layers of paper-faced gypsum board, the middle and then filled with sound-absorbing cotton, then the surface of the gypsum board laying wallpaper or paint, so that the surface will alleviate a lot. will relieve a lot.

Building materials: soundproof windows and doors

Soundproof windows consisting of plastic window frames, vacuum glass and soundproofing strips, not only does not affect the home of the demand for light, but also significantly isolate the external noise. The core of the door is equipped with a honeycomb structure of the paper base, and the airtight layer inside the door panel can also play a good noise reduction effect.

Pain point 4: too humid

Also faced with a difficult problem is humidity, because of poor ventilation, especially in the rainy season, the house can not be discharged water vapor. And it leads to this smell of moisture and decay everywhere, which is hard to bear. In the south that's really worse, good mood will ride on this top.

Decoration points: waterproof construction to be in place

Want to solve the wet season home walls and floors "sweating" this problem, in the construction of the renovation of waterproofing works will have to be careful and serious construction, especially in the bathroom, close to the bathroom wall waterproofing needs to be Do more than one layer, the height to the top of the bar.

Building materials: solid wood flooring with caution

The ground floor as well as a narrow distance from the home because it is easy to humidity, wooden building materials can be used less less use, floor tiles, painted walls, aluminum buckle ceiling and other building materials are moisture-proof are playing a role.

The people buy a house is not easy, I hope all aspects are good. However, in real life there will always be some unsatisfactory place, either to buy the time to cut the legacy of the problem, or buy only after the inadequacy of the discovery, in fact, normal, since the problem already exists, we have to do is to minimize the inconvenience caused by the problem, and I hope you all the best!
