Warm doghouse

For pets

Added 9 comments

Summer is in full swing and it's time to think about how your pets will winter. As the saying goes, "Prepare a cart in the winter, and a warm doghouse in the summer." So the Master decided to make his dog a warm booth.

Tools and materials:
-Pallets;
- OSB;
-Styrofoam;
-Fasteners;
-Soft glass 2 mm;
- Impregnation for wood;
-Paint;
-Glue;
- Electric jigsaw;
-Scissors;
-Drill;
-Gon;
-Sandpaper;
-Screwdriver;
-Painting brush;
- Clamps;
-Garden lamp;

Step One: Pallets
In the construction of the booth, the master uses pallets and a board of them. He needs to sort out several pallets.

Step Two: OSB
OSB is an oriented particle board. With this material, the master will plank the walls. Having calculated the dimensions of the walls, ceiling and cover, the master cuts out the blanks in duplicate. In two, because the walls will be double.

Step Three: Case
The base of the booth is a pallet. On the base, the master fixes the outer walls of the booth.

Step Four: Thermal Insulation
Foam is used for thermal insulation. The master fixes the foam panels on the inside of the walls and floor.

Then fastens the inner walls.

Step Five: Porch
Before the entrance, the master installed a porch and sheathed it with boards.

Step Six: Soft Glass
The booth is insulated, but has one weak spot, cold air will enter through the entrance. The master partially solved this problem by fixing soft glass at the entrance. Soft glass is a thick PVC film.

Seventh step: finish
The master covers the booth with protective impregnation from the inside and paint from the outside. Above the entrance, an LED solar lamp is installed.

Step Eight: The Roof
The roof is also made with insulation inside. It is hinged and can be lifted if necessary.

On top of the roof, the master nailed the bars.

The booth is ready, now you can be sure that the dog will not freeze in winter.

Everything depends on the dog. I’ll cover the insulation box, in the morning the whole insulation to shreds))) And it’s cold to the infection, and it still pulls out. And there was a calm dog, smoke me a pass

Confuses the "thermal curtain" of polyethylene, the dog is likely to tear it.

Will not burn. There is sand in it, and indeed it will be in the sand. He will warm the sand. And the thermostat will turn it off when necessary.
The problem with the wire is solved simply - is fed through a plastic pipe. Well, in the corner of the floor or its walls.
I looked into the box at -32 (a curtain on the manhole), so the dog there stretched out a bastard. The box itself is a board of 25 mm, polystyrene, 4 mm plywood. From such a sandwich.

So you then laid in the apartment. And in winter it will not be hot outside. And about the dimmer thought is true.

Preferably with a dimmer, I placed a cell (50X50 cm) of underfloor heating under my feet, it’s normal in slippers, it’s hot in bare feet!

Here you need to try, it is designed for water. Although if it has a thermal relay - it should not. The question is where to put the wire 220, if it will be in the bottle. The likelihood of a song overload is clearly high

And, well, put the aquarium heater in a plastic bottle with sand - completely.

is it from personal experience? Won't burn out? I just have one extra lying around, and I wanted to order a rug for a dog.

This will be a lot. And, well, put the aquarium heater in a plastic bottle with sand - completely. The temperature is set, eats 10 watts, and it is better for the dog to turn in different ways.

Since I’m so confused, I would have laid a film warm floor! Eats little, and the dog will be warmer.
