What types of wood do you use in construction?

What is the advantage of cedar and larch?

Siberian larch, oddly enough, has a truly unique characteristic for a tree — fire resistance. Of course, a wooden house will not stand against a taiga fire, but the fire resistance of larch is twice as high as that of pine. In terms of its strength, larch is inferior (and even then only slightly) to ash and oak. With age, the density and hardness of logs increase, as there is a slight abrasion of the outer layer of “early wood”. The larch house successfully resists the effects of the elements and time.

Larch is a natural antiseptic. This tree has such a supply of phytoncides that it lasts for centuries. Living in a larch house, you can forget about colds forever. Science has proven that larch has a positive effect on people suffering from neuroses and regular headaches (migraines). This tree will give you sharp eyesight until old age and will help to normalize metabolism.

Siberian cedar enjoys well-deserved popularity as a building material, despite the high price. This tree has excellent thermal insulation qualities, surpassing similar characteristics of stone and concrete by more than ten times. Go to the cedar house on a hot summer day and you will feel the inviting coolness. And in the cold it will be cozy and warm.

If you live in a cedar house or at least regularly visit a sauna built of cedar, you are not in danger of colds and infectious diseases. Cedar has a healing and disinfecting effect.
