Chapter 202 Fire Walls and Drainage Systems
With a heating system called a fire wall, you can spend this winter very comfortably, otherwise in winter, just burning firewood for heating is not good for your health in a sealed room.
Since we are going to build a new house, the drainage system and heating system are all better, and it is bound to be comfortable for the whole family.
Lao Fangtou and Lao Chu praised again and again, the more they listened, the more excited they became, how could they never have thought of such a method, in this way, in winter, even if it was goose feathers and heavy snow outside, the house would be very warm inside.
"It's such an ingenious idea, it's the first time I've heard of it!"
"That's it, and the drawings are very detailed, and it's not difficult to make!"
"What are these intervals in between? What is it? ”
Jiang Yan is not a professional designer, and the drawings are very sloppy, but fortunately, there are two painting masters at home, especially Qiao Le, whose painting skills are very high, and he can basically draw the ideas expressed by Jiang Yan.
The two pointed to the place they couldn't understand and moved the bottle to teach, shamelessly asking, they were full of curiosity about these unknown things, and they desperately hoped that Jiang Yan would explain it to them.
Jiang Yan also patiently explained: "This is the interval inside the fire wall, which can better keep the temperature for a longer time, this is the drainage system of the whole square, each bedroom needs to design an independent bathroom, here is a separate latrine and bathroom for the next people." ”
Each room is designed with a wall of fire, and there are spaces in the walls, and the spaces are regular, so that the hot smoke from the stove will flow along the path separated from the fire wall, and finally swing out from the chimney at the end.
The process will be much slower, so that the temperature will last longer, and the room will be warmer.
As for the drainage system, Jiang Yan plans to set up a simple bathroom with dry and wet separation in each room, a toilet in the room on the second floor, and a squatting pit in the room on the first floor.
In this era, there was no talk of sewers, and the latrines built by large families were also for the use of the people, and they all used gong buckets, and then they were brought out and disposed of by people who specialized in pouring night incense.
Jiang Yan didn't want to finish the toilet by herself, and she had to be helped to pour it, she was embarrassed to trouble others, and she didn't want to get these things, so she simply designed a simple drainage system from the beginning.
Dig two large pools in the back mountain, one is used to install the common sewage at home, and the other is the manure tank, there are no water pipes at this time, and Jiang Yan is not good to buy them directly from the mall.
So the plan she designed is very simple, all the toilets on the first floor are dug underground sewers, and the second and third floors can be directly connected with stone pipes, so that the water can flow directly into the manure tank behind the mountain.
And she also designed a water system, the toilet on the second and third floors is troublesome, and it can't be carried up and down by manpower every time, so a room is left at the end of each floor as a water room.
A simple manpower elevator is designed inside, and the courtyard using some lifting devices greatly reduces manpower, so that not only can some heavy objects be transported upstairs can be transported upstairs.
"The top floor is simply separated from two rooms, leaving a large open-air balcony, making it more open, and I will communicate with you when the time comes."
The floors of the houses built in this era are not too high, although the construction technology is higher than the ancient times that Jiang Yan knows, but the common high-rise buildings are about five floors at most, after all, there is no reinforced concrete.
The house Jiang Yan wants to build is only three floors, and she doesn't plan to leave balconies for the west wing and the east wing, because she only plans to make the main house three floors, and the others are still two floors according to the convention.
She plans to decorate the top floor into her own leisure place, and when the time comes, a few children will be divided into the east and west wings, and she can plant her favorite flowers and plants on this large balcony on the top floor.
"Aunt Jiang, your house has a large amount of work, and the design is very novel, many places are not done by us, but after listening to your explanation, I feel very convenient, and I am bold, if Aunt Jiang is relieved, you can arrange for us to do it."
The old man's eyes were shining, listening to what you said was better than reading a book for ten years, and after listening to Aunt Jiang's design today, he seemed to have opened up for many years and had updated ideas for many previous constructions.
Lao Chu also hurriedly clenched his fists, and also looked excited: "Me too, Aunt Jiang, this house is simply amazing, although it has not been built yet, but I can already imagine what it will look like after it is built, although it is not the most luxurious house I have built, but it is definitely the most comfortable, convenient and novel house I have ever built." ”
The two of them expressed their attitudes one after another, hoping to stop this big job, as far as the drawings and what Jiang Yan said, both of them were sure that they could make it completely, and they were extremely curious about what this house would look like when it was built.
"The amount of work in this house is not small, since the two of them have taken it, it is better for the two of you to take it together, I believe in the vision of Lao Wu and the shopkeeper Fu, but I also have requirements, now in September, the days are gradually getting cooler, I want to dare to build a house before the cold winter comes, so the time is more urgent, I want you to maintain the quality of the project at the same time, the time can also be accelerated."
"This ......" The two looked at each other, and they both saw embarrassment in each other's eyes, "Aunt Jiang, the total team of our two families is only thirty-nine people, if you want to speed up the time, you will have to recruit more strong laborers at that time." ”
The construction team generally stays in the team and the on-the-job are all skilled workers, so the number of people will not be too much, if the amount of work is too large, and there are not enough people in their own team, they will recruit other strong laborers from the vicinity to do it together, which Jiang Yan naturally knows.
"Now that the autumn harvest is over, there are farmers everywhere who have free labor, and there will be some villagers in our village to do it together, and when the time comes, you can arrange it yourself, such as building fences and digging ponds and manure ponds, which are not technical tasks, you can assign them to the villagers to do."
"The heating system and drainage system need to be arranged by yourself, and the fence needs to be capped with gravel tiles, and I will take the house and build it on the back hill to prevent wild or thieves from climbing over the wall."
Jiang Yan said carefully, the deeds of the house do not occupy a large area, mainly the courtyard pond and the vegetable field in the backyard occupy most of the area, especially the back mountain, most of which is empty to plant fruit trees.
"There are already four rooms in this factory, and they will need to be built at that time, and they will be the same type of room, but they need to build a room here in front."
There are many factories and big business, so someone needs to guard where it is, so directly build a two-bedroom as a guard room.
