The lining is a thoroughly dried panels of wood of various breeds and is considered to be an ideal material for plating the interior of the bath. Among the main advantages of wooden decoration is absolute environmental friendliness, aesthetic appearance, durability, excellent sound and thermal insulation characteristics. Everything else, this natural facing material is distinguished by affordable price and simplicity of installation.

Unlike plastic and chipboard, the lining is perfectly tolerated and the temperature differences and high humidity. A cozy atmosphere and a special microclimate always reign in premises lined with wood. For the inner covering of the parchny compartment, it is better to choose lining cladding (linden, oak, ozin, alder, ash), and coniferous wood (cedar, larch, pine, spruce) is ideal for facing the rest of the rest of the baths.

Before sowing with a bath with lining, you need to hold a number of preparatory work. First of all, it is necessary to align the ceiling and walls of the room. Significant drops, cracks and other surface defects are eliminate with a putty or plaster. After alignment, treat the walls of antibacterial primer. Next, all communications are laid (electrician, water supply, sewage) that need to be hidden behind wooden panels. An important nuance: At this stage, the lining will bring inside the bath, before assembly, it should be searched for 2-3 days and "get used to" to the microclimate of the room.

At the end of the preparatory work, proceed to the assembly and construction of the crate. For a frame, use a wooden bar (its cross section is selected individually, based on the thickness of the heat insulating material, ideally the bar must be a little thicker of the insulation). Before installing the crates, it is necessary to determine the option of placing the layout of the wallpaper - it can be vertical, horizontal, diagonal or combined. The optimal solution for the inner lining of the bath is the vertical mounting of the panels. With such a layout, flowing water and condensate are not stored between wooden planks.

The frame is mounted perpendicularly to the selected line of the lining on long galvanized screws - if you use conventional fasteners, traces of rust may appear on a tree with time. The step between the bars should be at least 50-60 cm - such gaps are necessary for free air circulation between the rows. The whole docrete should be collected in the same plane (check the evenness of each installed series using a plumb or level). In the presence of drops, put under the bars of wooden trim or substrates from plywood or other dense material. The fixed frame is carefully treated with antiseptic impregnation.
5
The next stage of work is the laying of insulating materials. As a insulation, you can use basalt cotton wool or foam glass - these materials are considered excellent thermal insulators, they fireproof, resistant to evaporation formation and are not damaged by pests insects. What is important, these insulation differ in environmental cleanliness and do not emit neither toxic or carcinogenic substances during heating. The selected thermal insulation material thoroughly fill out all the cavities between the bars of the crate.

For vaporizolation, it is possible to use pergamine - the material of the material to put on top of the insulation in a horizontal position with an overlap at 10-12 cm. In the process of laying, fix the parchment bands with a furniture stapler. The links of the joints are cobbled with a wide construction tape.
7
After laying isolation, you can proceed to direct cladding. Start mounting from one of the corners of the room. Having measured the height of the working wall, cut the panel of the corresponding length. At the first plank, gently cut the spike, install it with a cut side into the angle and secure. Exists several options for fastening wooden ridges to frame - with special brackets, screws or nails. It is most convenient to work with kleimers - thanks to this method of fastening, the installation is performed quickly and efficiently (first the bracket is lightly driven into the Rake grooves, then attach to the frame with the help of stainless nails or screws).

The final stage of work is the processing of lining with a special protective composition. Natural oil-wax impregnation with water-repellent effect will prevent rotting, deformation and change in wood color. From time to time, the protective coating must be updated.
As you can see, the process of plating the bath with wooden lining is not relieved. Following our instructions, you will easily turn the usual room in a great place to relax the soul and body.
