How to make the floor in the steam

To cover the floor in the steam room, any of the materials are suitable: ceramic tiles, tile, concrete screed or boards of coniferous wood. Of course, it is best to stop your choice on wood. Wooden floors are divided into two types: not flowing and leaking. Of all the conifers are most suitable for a pair board of pine, 5 cm thick.

The flowing floors are more simple in the manufacture, water flows through the slots in the floorboards under the floor, absorbed into the ground. There are no less difficult floors, as water flows into a waterball, and from there he gets into a sewer network or a cesspool. Such floors are more hygienic, and they can be inspired.

In order to make the base of the wooden floor, set lags, then lay the floor boards. The flow of water should be in the right direction, it is provided by the tilt of the floor boards. Therefore, with the help of a water level, it is necessary to very accurately prepare the position of the position of each lag. Apply for this purpose and laying of different thickness. The ends of the lag should be wrapped with waterproofing, for example, rubberoid.

If the floors flowing, the base of the floor must be prepared in advance. The vegetable layer is removed, fall asleep with rubble, 20 cm thick. Through the floor boards, water penetrates into the underground room, absorbed into the ground. Boards on lags lay with a small gap to flow water. Under the floor for ventilation, leave the lumen about 50 cm.

Do not flow floors fit on a concrete screed, the slope is done in the direction of the drain hole. Flowing water enters the tray and is discharged into the sump. The tree is susceptible to rotting and over time, such floors need to be prohibited.

Concrete floors are more durable, compared to wooden, but their manufacture will require more labor. First you need to choose a place for water flow (veil). To remove the drain of water, you need to install a pipe with a diameter of 15 × 20 cm from the drain hole beyond the battery. An exemplary pulp size is 40 × 40 cm, the depth is about 30 cm.

Prepare floor base. To do this, fall asleep layer of rubble up to 20 cm, to dissolve and catch. Pour the concrete with a layer of 50 mm on crushed stone, while simultaneously making the gender of the floor in the right direction. When concrete hardens, lay the reinforced layer. It can be a chain grid. Concrete is good to compact so that there is no emptiness. Then apply the following layer of sandy-cement mortar and align the surface to a smooth state.

It is advisable to lay a tile on the concrete surface, better than ceramic. So that there is no slippery, tile take with a unhappy surface. Soak tiles in water 2 hours before work. To obtain an absolutely smooth base under the tile, it is necessary to put a layer of concrete, then the layer of mastic, a layer of waterproofing, concrete, make a screed with a thickness of 3 cm and the finishing material. The mixture for laying the tile to apply a trowel on its backrest side and put on the screed. Feed the tiles to each other with rubber or wooden hammer. Cleaners fill in cerezite.
