Wall insulating kit: Add 10% to sale price, includes metal stud brackets with 3/4″ tongue & groove wall cover boards
Energy efficiency: 2×4 or 2×6 studs are be used to install insulation of your choice. Our solid wood walls add an additional R 4.4 and have virtually no heat or cold transfer, increasing the overall thermal and comfort benefits.
Tip: Mineral wool insulation is recommended for log construction. It’s impervious to moisture with a higher R-value per inch than fiberglass, reduces noise levels & is environmentally friendly
Insulating the roof: Apply locally supplied materials to add rafters over the tongue & groove roof boards. The build up depth is determined by the required R-value in the ceiling to meet local building codes. High density spray foam provides maximum benefits, highest R-value for thickness & is water proof. These added rafters also increase the roof load capacity
Assembly: The model can be assembled in approximately 12 days with 3 people
Tip: House wraps & vapor barriers are required in most regions when insulating. Vapor barriers are installed on the warm side of walls, interior of the studs for cold climates and exterior of studs for hot climates
