Jamppa is tackling the snow pile this winter in a special project: he plans to insulate the log cabin and the walls of the house with snow. Piling snow around the stone foundation of the house arouses strong opinions – some consider it old-fashioned and even risky, while others swear by its insulating effect. Jamppa has tried the method himself before and noticed its concrete effects, especially in the form of an improvement in the floor temperature. This time, however, he will not pile snow around the entire house, but will make an exception for one wall. In addition, Jamppa plans to measure the temperature of the subfloor during the upcoming hard frost period, so that he can get more accurate information about the insulating effect of the snow. #ainolanjamppa
