HONKA excels in eliminating the costly expense of
chinking! Energy efficiency in a home is all about air exchange or
better said, "How tight is your home construction?" In a log home the
ability to prevent air infiltration is dependent on the quality of the
seal between the logs.
There are 5 major points of emphasis in determining
the quality of this seal:
Failure of any of these 5 elements can cause
dramatic differences in the prevention of air and water infiltration
thus reducing the energy efficiency of the home and allowing water
damage.
HONKA’s technology excels in maximizing the
benefits in all areas. CNC machined logs to precision tolerances.
Swedish cope provides wrap around contact. Poly-propylene seal is
water proof and won’t degrade like caulk and rubber gaskets.
Installation of seal is simple. 4 wedges provide additional grip and
seal. Density of logs and straight growth minimizes risk of twisting
and warping. No chinking is required.
