A lot of dust in the rooms can cause allergies. Therefore, people suffering from allergy are recommended to live in log homes. 120-150 and more years of age.

Natural air humidity and microclimate

Wood houses keep natural humidity balance inside the house. If indoor humidity level increases, timber walls start “drinking” it. If it is too dry, wood will bring the absorbed moisture back. This way, humidity inside a log houses will always remain the same as it is outside. Contrary to other types of houses, the weather does not become dry in log homes. Logs feature to accumulate excessive moisture and to return it, helps to keep the optimal room temperature. Log homes breathe, and that is why there is no need to have air-conditioning systems, as natural ventilation works through the walls.

Thermal performance of wood houses

Logs have high heat storage capacity. Wooden walls store warmth and gradually distribute it in all room. If you touch wood, it is never cold and its surface temperature is similar to that of a room temperature. This conditions comfort inside a house. That is why it will be warm in a log home even in the biggest frost. Log homes warm up sooner and retain warmth longer compared to brick houses.

Due to the mentioned thermal properties of wood, log homes are cool in hot seasons. Log homes are a perfect solution in hot-climate regions.
