Notes on vents:
In the past, this rural self-built house did not consider any ventilation openings, but in most old houses, we can see that there is actually a thing on the gable that is the same as the upper window. It is very small and very narrow. Many people do not understand that What is it for. In fact, there is a hidden mystery in the old houses in the countryside, that is, it looks like a one-story from the outside, but in fact there is a small mezzanine inside, that is, there is a small layer above the beams, which can store some things that are not commonly used. And those small windows on the gables that make people seem ignorant of the so-called so-called are actually vents. Of course, another important function is to transmit light. When people go up to look for things, they can see the things inside through the light that comes through. .
This is the most primitive ventilation port. Up to now, the old tile-roofed houses no longer exist, and now most of them are villas, or two and a half stories, or three and a half stories. Why is there this half-layer? It's because the top is to be a slope top, and at the same time, this half layer is also used to reserve vents.
Many people wonder whether to leave the vents or not. Today, let's talk about where this vent is, and then talk about whether it is necessary to leave it.
1. Where are the vents:
I don't know why, many people always laugh at others inexplicably. For example, many people see that others have built a new house, so they wait to laugh at them. Every day they want to find out something wrong. It’s just that they didn’t understand when two small windows were left on the slope to the south. They felt that they had found a point to complain. They thought it was the master’s fault. Such a good villa roof, but deliberately left two such things. What are you doing? Some people who are not so mean will say that this is like having two eyes on the roof. When encountering a mean person, they will directly say something ugly, saying that there are two temple gates on the roof of the new house built by a certain family.
It is actually very vicious to say this in the countryside. If it really gets to the ears of the owner, it will cause trouble, because there is a huge difference between this temple and the house where I live. People have built a new house, and it is of course useful to set aside two such things. It is not for being a demon, nor is it for deliberately high-profile. The main function of these two small windows is to ventilate the villa. The air circulation is very effective. What is there to laugh at? When you say that someone is high-profile, it is precisely because you want to be high-profile in your heart and can't be high-profile, so you can say that others are deliberately high-profile.
If we look closely, we will find that most of these vents are facing the south, because most of our houses are facing north to south, which is called the main house in the rural saying. This design is very reasonable and scientific, because the winter in the north is very cold, and the north wind is easy to blow, and the ventilation opening to the south can prevent the wind from pouring in along the ventilation opening, and the south wind in summer can make the air inside. There is also wind moving around.
But what needs to be noted here is that some people will not keep this thing, and some people will not. Is it necessary to keep this vent? Under what circumstances should you stay?
2. Is it necessary to stay?
Whether it is necessary to keep this depends on the design of our house. We can't just keep everything if we say it is good to stay, it depends on whether our house is suitable or not. If we leave a table on the half of the roof, that is, only the edge is poured around the inside of the house, and the entire middle is empty, then it is necessary to keep it. The rim is poured here for tiling or pouring the top of the concrete slope, and the rim is where the beams and drains are built. In this case, since the middle is empty, it is equivalent to connecting with the second floor below, leaving a vent to allow the wind to flow into the house below smoothly, so we say it is necessary to keep it.
We all know that the house is for people, even some places where flowers and animals are raised, there will be ventilation openings on it to adjust the temperature. This ventilation is very important for human and animal health. Why do we get bad smells when we go into some houses that we don't live in for a long time? It is because the air is not circulated, and if the air is not circulated for a long time, there will be bacteria breeding, which is only harmful to human health without any benefit, and ventilation can effectively improve this situation. On the other hand, ventilation can also effectively regulate the temperature, with many benefits.
But what's the point here? That is, when many people build houses now, they have completely sealed the roof above, which is the kind of cast-in-place flat roof that is common in our rural areas. In this case, there is no need to keep this vent, because it loses its most basic and most important function, that is, it has no place to communicate with the house below, so some people build the so-called so-called The vent is just to see others like this and also like this, this is just an appearance, the inside is solid, and it is not connected with the slope inside, so there is no need to leave it, because it has lost its original function.
