Modular houses are an innovative and flexible housing solution that is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to traditional construction. Modular houses are multi-purpose buildings that are quickly built. They can be used as: residential houses, garden houses, saunas, work spaces or perhaps even storage rooms. These Scandinavian-loved cabins have been controversial in the past, but nowadays more and more people choose them over regular houses.
What are mobile modular houses used for?
Mobile modular houses are a great alternative for people who don’t want the long process of building a conventional home, the construction term of the latter is only 3 months. We often offer our customers cabins that have already been built, so they are without a production deadline and can appear on the customer’s lot in just a few days!
A mobile modular house is suitable not only for recreation and leisure in nature, but can also be used for permanent living. The houses we build are perfectly suited for living throughout all seasons – both summer and winter. Mobile modular homes are characterized by wide application possibilities. This type of house can be a great choice: for living, working, storage, children’s play area, leisure, business or other.
How are mobile modular houses adapted for living in the cold season?
Those who are planning or considering the purchase of a mobile modular home with the goal of living in it all year round should know a few basic things. If the house will be used for living all year round, it is necessary to insulate the house with a thicker than usual layer of polyurethane foam or mineral wool. A mobile modular house intended for year-round living can be insulated by a 15-20 cm. layer, thus ensuring thermal resistance.
If necessary, it is also possible to increase the number of aluminum profile window packages used. This is an offer that can be implemented if desired, but it is worth evaluating whether investments in additional solutions are necessary and will help save heating costs and pay off in general.
The mobile modular houses built by the MM Statyba team can be fully adapted for living in the cold season. For winter-proofing, a layer of polyurethane foam and/or mineral wool is used, which covers the walls by 10-20 cm. Aluminum profile windows are installed in all cabins, which are characterized by excellent thermal insulation and meet all the highest energy requirements, so they perfectly retain heat in the cabin. This type of windows ensures optimal micro-ventilation of the mobile home, and they retain their thermal insulation properties even when showcase windows are used for mobile homes.
What is polyurethane foam and what are the advantages of this material?
Polyurethane foam is one of the latest insulation materials, which guarantees the tightness of insulated structures and excellent thermal resistance. This material is modern, it consists of plastics with small gas bubbles inside.
- low thermal conductivity
- good adhesion to any surface
- water resistant
- a seamless insulation coating in it ensures a seal
- remains reliable and durable even up to 50 years
- resistant to mold and other environmental factors
What is mineral wool and what are its advantages?
Mineral wool is a material that limits heat flow, as a result it is a heat insulator that protects the house from heat loss in the winter and prevents the house from heating up too much in the summer.
- Cotton wool has excellent thermal insulation properties, which allows to reduce heating costs
- Fire resistance
- Good vapor permeability – wool allows air to pass through it, thus increasing the breathability of the building
- Many types of wool are made from recycled or natural materials, so they have a lower environmental impact
- It is a durable product that can last for many years without the need of replacement or even repairs
