Keeping Cozy (and Cool) in Your Container Lodge — Naturally

Keeping Cozy (and Cool) in Your Container Lodge — Naturally

Comfort begins with smart fabric and design. We combine proper insulation, passive principles, and low-energy heating/cooling to keep your lodge comfortable in every season. See how we plan it with you in our design & build process.

Insulation That Works

  • Options: PIR boards, mineral wool, sheep’s wool, hemp
  • Details: thermal breaks, airtightness, vapour control
  • Result: stable temperatures, lower energy use, quiet interiors

Passive Design Wins

  • Orient glazing for winter sun; add shading for summer
  • Cross-ventilation via window placement and trickle vents
  • Green roofs and external cladding to reduce heat gain

Eco Heating Options

  • Wood burners: cosy ambience with renewable fuel
  • Infrared panels: slimline, zoned, fast-response heat
  • Air source heat pumps: efficient for underfloor or radiators

Cooling, Naturally

  • Deep roof overhangs, pergolas, and deciduous planting
  • Night-purge ventilation; high-level vents
  • Reflective blinds and insulated curtains
