Hello
Just wanted to show how I've made my wine cellar, if anyone has any suggestions for improvement or ideas, please comment.
I've concluded not to use a Platon mat on the ceiling.
As it becomes too tight. You want to achieve 70% humidity which should be able to migrate through the floor/wall. I only have 100mm of stone wool ground insulation and ground fabric, as well as Isodrän board on the wall and ground fabric.
It will be a heated (Man Cave) and pool house on top, with the pool next to it, and 2 wine cellars with an entrance from the basement.
For the ceiling, I took concrete tubes for wells that I cut in half, with 100mm ground insulation and fabric.
Inside, there will be bricks on the sand floor and a brick ceiling with plastered walls to achieve as stable a climate as possible.
I have 35m ground pipes 4m underground for inlet to ventilation, so the air cools in the summer and warms in the winter. There are 3 inlets for ventilation, 1 in the tunnel to the wine cellar (pre-cooling) as the adjacent room is heated. And one in each cellar and outlet air in the ceilings.
I have also directed the cooled exhaust air to my root cellar.
I have a good link on what to consider when building a root cellar. www.eldrimner.com/core/files/jordkallare_korr_3.pdf
Sending some pictures of my construction.
Feel free to write comments and ideas.
Best regards, Andreas
But it will take some time.
