Before starting the construction of a suburban building for recreation, it is necessary to draw up a project. The guest house with a bathhouse will become a real paradise for those who live in the city and sometimes prefer to go to relax in the lap of nature.
Features of the guest house with a bath
The bathhouse, as a rule, is a building in which, in addition to standard amenities, there is also a steam room. Here should be located: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, water and sewage system, as well as heating. Here you can not only relax on the weekend, but also live throughout the summer period.
As a difference between such a building and a full-fledged country house, the guest building with a bathhouse has a steam room, a washing room, a font, and a dressing room. All this in the project occupies more than half of the area. After the preparation of the project, it is necessary to acquire materials that must be environmentally friendly.
It should be taken into account when preparing the project: the guest house with the bathhouse must be heated during the winter cold season, otherwise the pipes may burst, which will interfere with the operability of the entire system if it is necessary to start it.
Design and layout features
As a rule, guest houses are built of timber and have two floors. Communications, although they should be, but they should be set to a minimum. So, instead of a bath, a shower cabin should be installed, the kitchen should be small, like the entrance hall, a minimum of living space is allocated for all this. Whereas when drafting a project for the rest of the area, it is necessary to distribute it as follows: 50% - a font, a steam room, a dressing room, a pool, a shower room, the same area will be occupied by a bedroom and a rest room. Finishing everywhere should be in the same style.
For reasons of economy, the steam room and the living room should not be adjacent. Although this will save a few square meters, the decoration and furniture in the room will deteriorate.
The project of a modest house with a bath
If you are considering a budget project, a guest house with a bathhouse can be equipped as follows. In order to get a bathroom, which will have both hot and cold water, it is necessary to equip a well in advance, where a special pump equipped with a filter is immersed. In addition, you will need a boiler, which can be replaced with a storage water heater. The latter is installed directly in the washing room, while pipes will be taken from it to the toilet and the kitchen room.
The project of the bathhouse 6x6 m
In order to build a house, the area of which will be 6x6 m, you can use the frame as a basis. The construction will have a residential attic. Frame technology is inexpensive, and you can implement the construction of such a house yourself. In the outer walls you have to embed a pair of jibs, placing them in opposite directions. The inner and outer walls must be securely fastened, and on top they are tied with a board, which is part of the upper harness.
If you like this project, the guest house with a bathhouse at the bottom will be attached to the platform, which should have a solid structure. This will make the frame more durable. From above, it is also necessary to establish a continuous platform, which will become part of the overlap. This construction methodology has one important advantage, which is that after its completion, you can immediately begin decorating. There is no need to caulk, which is required in case of building a house from a timber.
Features of the construction of a frame house baths
If you are satisfied with the described project of a guest house with a bathhouse and a pool, then you still have to observe the features of the construction of the foundation. In its quality, you can choose a tape base, which does not deepen much. It is imperative to make an additional transverse tape, which should be located between the steam room and the washing. In the inner space of the foundation, you can equip an oversized technical basement, which is useful for installing a water supply and drainage system, arrange filters, all kinds of communications, as well as a hydraulic accumulator.
Due to the fact that the building must have a guest room, a bath house, a project, the photo of which is presented in the article, should assume its presence, which indicates the need to indicate all this in the drawing. So, by the way about the above, it can be noted that the racks of walls that are located outside must have a width of 150 mm, but with respect to internal walls, this figure should be equivalent to 100 mm.
In order to make the attic of such a building suitable for living in cold weather, its walls, floor and ceiling must be insulated, but basalt slabs can be used for this. In this project, the floor of the first floor should be covered with granite, while the roof should be covered with Finnish tiles. The inner surface of the walls of such a house can be trimmed with lining, but in the role of external decoration, a blockhouse is suitable. As the most suitable ladder will be the one that has the bottom steps. The attic can be divided into two rooms, one of them will become a hall, and the other - a bedroom.
If such a guest bathhouse is built of logs, the projects of which are presented in the article, then the dimensions of the steam room can be taken into account the dimensions of 2x2.7 m, while the ceiling height will be 2.55 m.
Warming of the bathhouse
In order for the floors to be warm, it is recommended to lay mats of the “warm floor” system under the cover, the operation of which can be regulated. On the second floor should be put convectors.
The device pool in the house
If the pool should become part of your country house with a bath, then its presence must be taken care of even at the construction stage, since the foundation pit should be prepared at the stage of land work. The first step will be digging a pit, in which a supporting element in the form of a bowl is installed.
It is necessary to carry out waterproofing work. Only then can you start installing the filtration and heating system. It is necessary to provide for the presence of a ladder, as well as a drainage system. If the guest house will be built from a bar, the projects of which are presented in the article, it is necessary to provide a water disinfection system in the pool, and a ventilation system should be installed in the room itself. You should not choose a bowl of excessively large sizes, its area should not exceed the limit of 17-35 m 2 , otherwise maintenance and construction will be too expensive.
An indicator of 1.5 m acts as the most suitable pool depth. It will also be necessary to make a shallow part, the depth of which should not exceed 0.9 m. It is preferable to position the pool in the basement of the building. Accommodation options above the first floor are quite dangerous, because the guest house is not a major building. The pool weighs significantly, it will exert a large load on the floors.
Alternative guest house designs
If you still have not chosen the design of the bath-guest house, the brick can form the basis of the walls. Only in this case it is necessary to take into account that the load on the foundation will be more significant. Doing it yourself will require much more labor costs, and the construction itself will cost much more. The walls of the house will have to be additionally insulated, because they will not differ in heat saving. In this case, it is preferable to choose a project that involves the construction of one floor, so that the second ene has an additional burden on the foundation. But the foundation has to be made in-depth tape, it is better to abandon the columnar if you plan to install a pool on the basement.
Some choose guest house designs with a foam block bath. Such a design will have little weight and not be so expensive due to the low cost of foam concrete.
