One of the most popular solutions this Problems are the unification of the loggia with the room. AND, although, Changing the redevelopment of a city apartment requires a long preliminary preparation related to receiving permits, owners of small apartments This process seems Only temporary inconvenience. And the overall trend is that often the owners of large -meter apartments are persistent in the expansion of useful area - due to the accession of the loggia to one of the living rooms.

The first stage is the receipt of project documentation
The typical layout of modern city apartments is such that the room in the loggia receives a continuation of living space. In the summer, when all balcony doors are open, from stuffy rooms I want to move to the open and well -ventilated space of the loggia or balcony. And I want it to be so all year round, and an additional well-maintained place for relaxation and personal solitude has finally appeared in the apartment. Lack of personal space is an urgent problem for residents of megacities, especially when a 3 generation family huddles in a tight apartment.
Whatever the dimensions of residential premises, the loggia will always seem not quite a functional appendage:
- bedrooms;
- living room;
- children's or rooms of a teenager;
- kitchens and other functional zones of the apartment .
Moreover, this is justified when a small tight kitchen or bedroom has an absurd continuation in the form of a huge square loggia. However, typical pro kT Mnthe vegetable house is not designed for the demolition of the outer wall of the apartment to combine the internal and outdoor space. And illiterate redevelopment of the apartment without calculations And the resolution of architects sometimes leads to deplorable consequences.
Simple layman it is incomprehensibleWhy illiterate changes in the project of the apartment lead to the collapse of part of the building, instead of increasing the apartment. But, constructively, walls are of different types:
- carrying;
- supporting;
- secondary;
- additional partitions;
- laste between supports .
Without expert assessments of experts such as architects and engineers, you can’t redevelop the apartment yourself. The decision on the possibility of partial and complete demolition of the wall may accept Only a qualified specialist responsible for the expert assessment of the redevelopment project. Even if the wall between the room and the loggia seems thin, and the outer room it remains Unlimited, only a specialist can make a decision on unification.
You can combine the loggia with the room in different ways:
- demolish the partition between the loggia and the living room;
- remove part of the pie;
- draw a small part of the wall under the window adjacent to the balcony door;
- make a figure clipping of the wall in the form of an arch (arbitrary shape) .
To decide on what constructive changes are possible in your project at home, maybe Only an architect or other special steCIAL Commission. But, anyway, when redevelopment, do not pass the large expenses associated with obtaining permits and thorough insulation loggia.
The insulation of the loggia suggests:
- thorough waterproofing and insulation with special materials;
- removal of heating elements outside the living room;
- system installations warm floor;
- installation of additional electrical equipment;
- completion of finishing work .
The choice of heating must be determined in advance, and this will be stipulated in the design document on redevelopment. With the removal of central -melting radiators, most likely, the amount for heating of the apartment will change. For installation of any type of heating system, it is necessary to hire specialists.
Tip: all the changes need to be prepared both financially and morally. If the demolition of the carrier is banned in the competent instance, this we'll have to Accept and dwell on partial changes.
For a greater combination of the loggia with a room without redevelopment we'll have to Limit:
- glazing of the loggia;
- installation of external windows with double windows;
- replace the old window between the room and the loggia with a lighter;
- install a whole -glass plastic door leading to the loggia;
- insulate the loggia, but do not use as an additional recreation area or personal solitude in the winter months .
Attention: If the loggia is planned to be used for full residence, it is important to first consider the lighting and heating system, additional installation of switches and sockets. Only after their installation can you complete finishing work, think over compact furniture for the loggia and another environment. Do not forget to make grounding, conduct a television cable or wireless Internet if they are actively used in this part of the apartment. For example, loggia, connected With a room.

Loggia functionality after redevelopment
After obtaining a permit for redevelopment or its deviations, the permissible limits of the transformation of the loggia adjacent to one of the rooms will be understood. Depending on the rooms themselves, the functional purpose of the converted room is largely determined. In most cases, it will be:
- additional dining area;
- place for a comfortable holiday;
- personal space of one of the family members;
- working or creative workshop;
- greenhouse;
- cabinet for working at the computer .
Based on this choice, planned:
- general design of the room;
- the degree of insulation of the loggia;
- additional hydro— and sound insulation;
- design of windows and the general design of glazing;
- technical equipment and summarized communications .
Important technical points for the re -equipment of the loggia united With a room
Particular attention should be paid to the choice of windows, because after the re -equipment of the room there will be a new outer wall. Qualitatively glazed The loggia is reliable a design that can withstand Nati sKihiya:
- hurricane wind;
- livne rains or hail;
- a sharp drop in temperature in winter;
- summer heat;
- daily temperature fluctuations, etc. .
The outer wall of the loggia should be equipped with double -glazed windows, and the windows of the windows should be densely and reliable Close, regardless of whether wooden frames or plastic ones. There are special frames with a winter ventilation system (ventilation). When speech goes about the installation of windows, the company must immediately specify an additional mount for glazed Lodge, which needs to be attached to some supporting structure. Double double -glazed windows will also provide additional sound insulation, especially if the windows of the house reach the highway. Only after that can we talk about some reliability the outer wall of the loggia.
At the same time, think about how the windows will be launched after the loggia join the room. Usually the loggia is small, and bulky curtains will be inappropriate there. Depending on the overall design of the room, it can be shielded Japanese curtains or a short Roman curtain. From the scorching rays of the sun on the south side, only horizontal blindswhich is easier to clean and remove from the windows than vertical.
Tip: Decide on how the transigestions will open and the curtains on the windows will be thrown back. The best option is sliding curtains on a special electric cornice controlled by a remote control.
Following the windows, it is important to determine the type of lighting attached loggia, where everything directly depends on the general design:
- reciprocal chandelier;
- wall -mounted sconces on opposite walls;
- spotlights or LED tape;
- floor lamps .
The heating of the loggia attached To the room
After resolved The issue of window arrangements, it is important to think over all the moments on the heating system. If the house is in a cold climatic zone, you should not get involved in a radical redevelopment, since it will be difficult to make sufficient thermal insulation and choose the type of heating so that during crackling frosts this would not be felt in connected Lodge with the room.
Attention: Remember that the big difference in temperature outside and indoors leads To the inevitable formation of condensate on windows or excessive ice. The steam contained in the air will inevitably settle on cold glass. Excess fluid will drain down, creating opportunities for damp, mold and fungi. Be sure to take care of the tightness of the loggia, waterproofing and thermal insulation - it is better to entrust all these repairs to specialists!
As mentioned above, it is important to think over the heating system in advance, and it is better to use the combined heating of the loggia. Take care of sufficient insulation in advance wires and fire safety. For combined heating, it is recommended to use:
- system "" warm Paul "based on heating cable" Nessans»;
- central heating with the installation of compact radiators heating or modern design radiators;
- imitation of the fireplace is expedient on spacious loggia, an electric firewood is mounted inside it .
Attention: Infrared heaters in a small room of the loggia are not recommended! Some electric heaters are unsafe in a narrow space, especially with reflectors focusing heat at a certain distance at one point - they lead to ignition and fire on the loggia.
Preparatory dismantling of the loggia
After you thought about how to attach the loggia to the room, calculated all preliminary expenses, you can start dismantling old structures, frames and partitions. If the loggia has already been glazed without insulation, it is unlikely to be possible seriously Warm the old system of wooden windows.
In panel houses, facade walls, as a rule, are part of the supporting structure, so it is forbidden to remove such a partition so that there is no collapse of the entire facade. Perhaps if you live on the very top floor, then at the architectural bureau you will be allowed to transform the loggia a little more, with the room connected capital partition. However, in this case, you need to work with a grinder or others tool Extremely neat.
It is always useful to rely not on your own experience, but on the advice of specialists of a construction organization. In a brick house, as a rule, it is not difficult to remove the part of the wall that is located in the partition under the window. But additionally strengthen the opening never superfluous. Sometimes additional supports, columns or other original designs are needed - photo.
Attention: dismantling the carrier partition is always a lot of cement dust, sand and other construction waste. Before starting such work, it is advisable to take out all the things from the room to the maximum that remains - cover film. After a small suspension settles, remove everything, process all surfaces several times and do wet cleaning. All work is carried out in overalls, helmet, goggles and respirator!
Arrangement and decoration of the loggia
Experts have developed a lot of option inchipstone decoration of the loggia, attached To the room. But whatever the design of the room with the loggia, the main emphasis is still better to be made on the properties of materials, and not their aesthetics. The loggia can be insulated both inside and outside, and the magnificent properties of wood are a great look for sufficient insulation, but this room is still not worth it.
The lining and other types of processed wood looks very good, which will support windows and insulate the room, but do not forget that the tree is enough heavy material. But if the loggia is well insulated, there is a waterproofing layer, then you can limit yourself to lining with drywall, decorative panels, etc. How to perform a full insulation attached Whether the balcony is the loggia - look at the video:
It is very important what will be floorupdated Lodge - it is important that it is not cold. You can lay wooden shields, linoleum or parquet, but it is better if the insulation system passes under them. For finishing suitable porcelain, marble and ceramic tiles. The greatest comfort is given by skins or pieces of natural and artificial fur, carpet Or soft rugs With a high pile - everything depends From the style of the dwelling.
Tip: Remember that diza will look ridiculous ynave.and connected Lodge, if it does not coincide with the style of other premises. Balance of color and finishing materials is important.
Loggia functionality, her openness to the outside world, access to fresh air and enough light has to equip her As a recreation area. It's nice to relax after tense Workday and have dinner together, discussing all the news and impressions of the day behind a cup of tea. Furniture in such a small space should be light and compact:
- stagnant stools or chairs;
- folding seats and consoles instead of tables;
- a small double sofa;
- oval countertop instead of a window sill or bar stand;
- lungs hinged shelves and cabinets of the baskets, so as not to clutter up the space;
- if allows a place - here you can set a narrow and high refrigerator, if The loggia is attached to a tiny kitchen .
The best addition, as a living element of loggia , Certainly, There will be fresh flowers. If there is enough space, turn the loggia into a real paradise with fragrant exotic plants. Here they will have enough light, warmth. Do not forget to spray them from a spray gun to maintain sufficient humidity in the summer. Complete the loggia with a small gurgling fountain, aquarium or a cage with parrots, and your zone of comfortable rest, in emotional terms, will more than cover all the costs of arrangement.
