Air:
The air exchange is provided with ventilation with recuperation. It is also possible to install air conditioning and air cleaning systems. The most common reason why the mould appears on the walls is lack of ventilation, incorrect home insulation and improperly selected materials. The Box is made from materials that does not support mould by themselves and also equipped with latest technologies that helps to make perfect climate inside.

Foundation:
As the Box is very light and waterproof, it is possible to put it on almost every flat surface. There is no need to build a construction site. If the ground is very soft, we recommend to spill the breakstone. There should be enough space around exploitation place for the truck and crane to deliver the Box.
