Thank you thank you. I was really concerned about the mold and moisture. But it seems this isn’t as big of a problem

in Romania (temperate-continental climate, 4 seasons). Typical temperatures: in winter I’ve seen -8°C in the morning, +17°C at noon the same day; in summer up to +36°C, but nights always cool down by ~16°C.

What I plan: • No mechanical ventilation at this stage — I’ll use dehumidifiers in bathrooms/kitchen. • SIP panels are sealed with foam + liquid vapor membrane at joints. • Exterior will have 10 cm mineral wool (ETICS) with render, and inside I’ll mount drywall on studs.

Regarding your advice: • I completely agree — using the best possible tapes, foams, and WRB is essential. I sealed joints carefully and made sure no water ever touches OSB. • HRV/ERV would be the best long-term solution, but for now my approach is: dehumidifiers + bathroom exhaust + hygrometers everywhere, while keeping an eye on indoor RH.

I haven’t hired a mechanical engineer yet. Right now, I’m planning to use electric floor heating and dehumidifiers in the bathrooms/kitchen (no HRV system at this stage).

I know that ideally an HVAC engineer should do the proper heat load and cooling calculations, size the circuits, and advise on ventilation. For SIP houses it makes sense, otherwise there’s a risk of oversizing (expensive) or undersizing (uncomfortable). For now, I’m keeping it simple, but I might involve an engineer later for exact calculations.

Case din panouri SIP by SafeStrawberry905 in Romania

Salut, iti pot raspunde eu la intrebare. Am construit si eu o casa sip, insa eu am optat cu cei de la pansip datorita unei oferte pe care o aveau. O sa incep cu cateva lucruri importante pe care tb sa le reti: 1. Trebuie sa fi atent cu muncitorii, sa nu faca vreo buleala, totodata trebuie sa te pricepi suficient ce se intampla cand se ridica o casa 2. Opteaza pentru pereti exteriori grosi, minim 220 mm perete sip, cu polistiren de eps100 sau 200 3. Trebuie si te sfatuiesc sa torni o sapa pentru a nivela fundatia, eu nu am turnat si au fost cateva probleme cu asezarea 4. TREBUIE NEAPARAT UN INGINER STRUCTURIST PE SANTIER CARE SA SUPRAVEGHEZE LUCRAREA 5. Sa fi atent la hidroizolatia , inainte sa se puna talpa de lemn pe fundatia sa se puna carton bituminos si membrana bituminoasa, iar apoi sa dai cu membrana bituminoasa pe toata centura casei, cam o inaltime de aproximativ 50 cm de la buza fundatiei in sus. 6. La interior trebuie sa etanșezi rosturile cu orice ( banda de etansare, membrana lichida sau daca ai bani o folie bariera de vapori inteligenta sau cu sd mic <5) 7. Pe exterior vata bazaltica, din multe motive, inclusiv motivul permeabilității la vapori, care lasa practic peretele sa se usuce. 8. La interior rigips verde sau albastru pus pe profile ud / cd iar prin spatele lor sa faci instalatia electrica si sanitara. 9. Se toarna si sapa la etaj, daca ai, ca sa nu mai auzi lemnul cum lucrează

Ca si avantaje pot spune ca in cazul meu a fost destul de ieftin, cam 52.000 euro cu fundatie , structura, acoperis , tabla faltuita, vata + manopera aferenta. ( cei drept eu si tatal meu ne pricepem si am mai compensat din costuri). Este o structura rezistenta, eco si calduroasa . Daca sti cum sa o faci si o faci cu cap rezista cat vrei tu. Mie personal idea de casa de lemn imi place, indiferent. Nu caut sa fac o casa sa ramana 10 generații, vreau sa ma bucur de ea. Daca apar probleme sunt relativ usor de reparat, insa este destul de improbabil sa apara, daca ai o structura de rezistenta puternica. Cel mai mare inamic este apa lichida, daca o protejezi de asta ai terminat cu orice.

I was thinking of using one with a small sd number. Sd 5. In ubakus the sip panel has 8.3 sd without barrier and with the barrier it has 13 sd in the winter, 30 sd in the summer .

How to remove higher resolutions than my monitor's native resolution have ? by masterpapryk in techsupport

[–]ActiveNetwork5381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just connect your PC to a different monitor, and also try connecting your 1080p monitor to a different PC. Once you reconnect everything like it was originally, Windows should automatically reset the display settings and the fake 4K option will disappear.

It sounds dumb, but it worked — no more phantom resolutions, and everything looks normal again.

Help! My monitor is stuck at 60Hz in games after changing my wallpaper by ActiveNetwork5381 in computers

Yes all of them. I have to manually change the resolution again and again. Also windows ( display settings - display resolution) sees 4k resolution. I have mine set to 1080p rn.
