Energy Efficient Timber Lodges from Spahaus
Our lodges are built to comply with the highest level home building regulations. Each custom built building is UK manufactured to exacting standards and can be clad in a choice of materials from pressure treated softwood to Cedar or Larch. For windows and doors we offer a choice of UPVC, timber or Aluminium and unlike the typical park home, insulation and interior finish are similar to what you would expect from any timber frame home.
Durability
Modern timber frame buildings age well compared to their masonry-built equivalents. A study carried out by the BRE on 120 timber frame houses built between 1920 and 1975 found their performance to be “similar to traditionally built dwellings of the same age and, given proper maintenance, likely to remain so for the foreseeable future.”
There are open panel timber frame homes in Britain dating back to the 1800s and for most countries timber frame construction is the norm.
Environment
Timber frame is by far the most environmentally friendly way to build. All of our lumber comes from sustainable sources and unlike other building materials wood is an unlimited resource.
Due to the natural insulation properties of wood, timber buildings typically retain heat better than similar masonry buildings and therefore use less energy.
