ProductionDevon Pine Lodges
Production Stages
Our lodges are constructed on a steel chassis and are
timber framed, we use thick, stronger and heavier robust
timber joists and we pay particular attention to our
energy efficiency to keep heat loss to a minimum,
providing all owners with reassurance that they will not
occur high energy bills or unnecessary maintenance
charges.
Our lodges are built to last!
EXAMPLE: Standard features
- Windows are LowE glazed window units in 70mm uPVC frames
- Floors are constructed using 100mm timbers with 80mm ‘EcoTherm’ thermal insulation
- The external wall timbers are 125mm with 100mm superior Rockwool™ insulation in the Ashbury, but can be increased to 150mm timber with 125mm insulation if required.
- The roof timbers are 200mm with 175mm superior Rockwool™ insulation in the Ashbury.
- “A” Rated Condensing combination boilers are used for the central heating and hot water supply
- Thermostatic radiator valves are fitted on all radiators
- Low energy lighting fitted wherever possible
- Dual flush toilets
- Water saving nozzles on taps
- We are committed to using only sustainable wood products, and source most of our timber from Scandanavia, that carries FSC *or PEFC* certification (FSC = Forest Stewardship Council *PEFC Programme for the Endoresment of Forest Certification).
We constantly monitor our homes with an eye to energy saving, and increased insulation. We set ourselves challenging targets, so that we can achieve energy values that give us U values that not only meet current industry standards, but exceed them. As we build bespoke there are always other options available i.e. Argon filled double glazed units or less insulation for summer letting as in the Tamar Lodge.
