Is a Log Home Right for You?
Wood is one of nature’s best insulators. It’s considered to give four times better insulation than concrete block construction, six times better than brick, and 15 times better than stone.
The massive walls of a log structure are also natural passive solar storage systems. Wood absorbs warm air from inside the home and releases it slowly at night as the temperature drops.
The exterior walls and interior walls are made entirely of solid logs 8 to 12 inches in diameter. The size doesn’t matter because all the logs are efficient in keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Purchase our e-book to learn more. Is a Log Home Right for You?
