The current fireproof materials market is also very diverse and developed. Depending on the function of use, fireproof materials are arranged to ensure safety as well as in accordance with the construction budget. According to the advice of architect Bui The Long (CTA | Creative Architects), fireproof materials are special materials, so it will need professional advice to ensure safety and suitability. In addition, homeowners need to avoid widespread use, causing waste because fireproof materials are quite expensive. However, using fire prevention materials is only the last step to preserve the life and property of users. First of all, it is still necessary to ensure fire prevention from the beginning of construction such as arranging safe and suitable functional areas, arranging reasonable exit doors … For good fire protection for the house, homeowners need to make sure from the first step of construction. For the kitchen area, homeowners need to choose non-combustible materials such as stone, insulation panels, heat-resistant glass… At the same time, homeowners should switch to using induction or infrared stoves to reduce the risk of fire and explosion from gas stoves as well as when using stoves with a capacity of more than 4000W. In addition, the homeowner needs to install a self-cutting circuit breaker and attached safety wires. As for spaces such as karaoke rooms, indoor movie screenings, homeowners should use soundproofing and fireproof materials such as fireproof glass wool. Because these areas have a high risk of fire due to the arrangement of carpets, fabrics, cotton, etc. for drainage and soundproofing.

The apartment is so hot and hot that the living space becomes stuffy. People living in apartments often suffer from hot air and direct sunlight will suffer health problems, and furniture will also be damaged quickly. Western-facing or western-facing apartments have high heat absorption. (Illustration) If you are facing the above problems, homeowners need to apply anti-heat measures based on 3 basic principles, which are: Reducing the absorption of heat into the apartment; create natural ventilation; and increased insulation. Reduce heat absorption Hot air from the outside enters the apartment through a wall or window surface. Therefore, to reduce heat absorption, homeowners should use light-colored wall paint or furniture. Limit the use of glassware on balconies or windows. If the glass cannot be replaced, cover it with insulating glass paper, curtain or curtain. It is recommended that the insulating glass be used in western windows. (Illustration) To cool down the apartment, homeowners should plant many trees. This not only makes the space more green, but also helps to make the air cleaner. Create natural airflow In order for the living space to be naturally ventilated, the first thing homeowners need to do is arrange interior items neatly and intelligently. There should be one window in the air-inlet direction and one in the out-air direction. A neat and reasonable interior layout also contributes to natural airflow. (Illustration) Heat absorption in closed walls will make the apartment hotter. Therefore, homeowners avoid sealing the wall area where sunlight shines on. Insulation There are many methods of insulating the wall of an apartment in the West, where it is exposed to the heat every day. Homeowners can refer to popular insulation materials on the market today. Plasterboard helps insulate the wall of the apartment quite well. Plaster has good sound insulation, high aesthetics. Plaster can be combined with other insulation materials such as glass wool or PU foam sheet. An insulated air bag is also an effective option. This airbag is constructed of pure aluminum film, helping the apartment to resist heat during sunny days or release heat in winter. Planting lots of trees on a balcony is also an effective way to combat heat. (Illustration) An equally effective method of insulation is the use of PU foam insulation. This material has quite good sound insulation, but homeowners should combine with plaster walls to create more aesthetics. At a balcony or window, where it is directly affected by sunlight, homeowners should use insulating glass instead of ordinary glass. More simply, you can use curtains or blinds to shield. Along with that, use heat insulation paints and bricks. Growing trees on the balcony is also a solution with many benefits. Trees help reduce heat absorption, while purifying the air and preventing dirt from entering the house from the outside. Phuong Anh (synthetic)

To keep your house cool in the Vietnamese climate, first of all, is the layout of the space, the location of light, reasonable wind, and ventilation thanks to open spaces. In addition, the selection of materials also helps to reduce some of the heat. Currently, there are materials on the market that can provide both sound and heat insulation well. Here are some suggestions of architect Bui The Long CTA | Creative Architects about materials that make your house cool year round. Use unburnt lightweight bricks You can use types such as block bricks, unburnt light bricks to help reduce environmental pollution. Solid brick walls, raw and un-painted brick walls also provide good insulation. Soil wall from mountainous ethnic people is now sought by many professional construction companies to apply in construction is also a worthwhile solution in the future. “Breathing brick wall” The use of “breathing brick wall” is also an option. “Breathing brick wall” includes a garden layer of 1.2 – 1.5 m combined with open brick wall, burnt brick built in the direction of continuous brick hole. From there, creating natural air inlets to help ventilate continuously 24/24 for the house. The less building layers of a wall surface, the quicker it heats heat, limiting heat retention, and heating indoor air. Spatial architecture with many layers of side corridor walls is also a method of limiting heat. Roofing tiles The roof is a part of the project that is subject to a considerable heat impact. Roofing with tiles or insulated corrugated iron will dissipate heat better than roofs made of concrete and tile due to the air space between the roof and the ceiling. For light-absorbing glass materials, in order to reduce heat, in addition to the way of insulating film, insulating glass is a good choice with no difference in price. Glass roofs or windows, doors should incorporate slots, ventilation bars to contribute to indoor air circulation. The glass wall material that has air insulation inside the brick is a material that is in common use. Wooden materials Solid wood materials limit heat gain, high inductance but relatively high cost, as well as longevity requirements, durability, so the use accounts for a low proportion of the common materials. The wooden houses have distinct beauty, cooler temperatures than concrete houses are many people love. Depending on the financial size of the homeowner can be considered to design. Using water surface or planting trees to cover walls or roofs, trees in the house is also a natural solution to help reduce heat and cool the house.
