Lodge Construction:
Craftsman built using 30 tons of hand selected, solid logs of over 300 mm diameter.
The Lodge is exceptionally environmentally friendly.
1) Renewable plantation timber is used exclusively.
2) Log homes have very high insulating characteristics which reduce ongoing energy requirements for heating and cooling. A conventional weatherboard home with insulation bats and interior lining, has an insulation value varying from R2 to R4. Log homes like ours have insulation values of R16 to R20. They are super insulators!
3) The windows are also double-glazed to further improve insulation properties.
Warm in winter and cool in summer.
4) All this reduces the burning of fossil fuels which generate greenhouse gas emissions.
5) After felling, the logs continue to absorb carbon di-oxide. This, combined with its energy efficiency, and
6) a Solar Photo-voltaic array for electricity creates a carbon neutral, or carbon negative dwelling.
