if you want to Mediterranean-style house, “Maybe it might be applied in good
two countries as the European season. For tropical countries should be
some adjustments. The possibilities of water seepage and tampias
rain, should have been anticipated from the beginning. That way, we can
minimize risk, “said Edi.
Anything, hell, tips to keep the house safe and comfortable in winter
rainy? Here in between.
ROOF
1. Like the saying before the rain umbrella ready, prepare the roof alias
“umbrella” of our house before the rainy season. Frequently
look to the roof, if there are tiles that are needed to be replaced
or declined.
2. To the roof of concrete, asbestos, or shingles, look at the possibility of
a hair crack. If there is, give the wire mesh and waterproof. Utuk
large cracks, and plaster must dibobok back.
3. Ideally, examinations carried out at least 2 – 3 months once. Therefore,
minuscule hair cracks and not directly cause the leak. New
setelah3-4 times big rain, the roof leaks and water that could seep
rotted roof.
4. Regional kerpusan (ridge) roof also need extra attention
cement plaster due to the often leaky section. Principle,
the earlier the repair, the cheaper the cost. Left ceiling
humid because of seepage of water, long may collapse. Risks, costs
more expensive repairs.
5. As far as possible to use aluminum foil (1 – 2 millimeter) as the coating
between the ceiling and roof tiles. Besides reducing heat absorption, as well
to avoid tampias. For example, if there are imperfections in the
installation of roof tiles, aluminum serves as a shield for the roof
so that the water will come down to the Plank and not go into the house. ”
6. Mandatory aspect of elevation (angle) to tile material
forming resistance to rain. For example, ceramic tiles
require elevation of more than 30 degrees, while the asbestos need more
of 15 degrees. If not ignored, rain water can still enter through
tile. handle, use overstek (tongue roof) along the 1.2
feet to protect floors and walls of the porch tampias storm.
7. Especially for asbestos roof, installation of bolts or nails on asbestos must
note. Asbestos can not be held together with ordinary nails, because
if hammered fragile. Asbestos must be drilled first, put the nail that
rubber coated, and then nail dipelingkut area.
8. For the tropics, the most appropriate material is a ceramic tile
More tough to face the weather and temperature changes.
OUTDOOR LAMPS
* Check regularly electrical cable installations. If there is flaking
let alone naked, very dangerous! If the flow of electricity 220 volts AC,
might short-circuit occurs. Not to mention that the bare wires,
submerged. The water could conduct electricity.
* We recommend using the DC flow to light the park or outside the home in order
more secure because it could not deliver electricity. But cable still have
neatly.
