Building techniques
Näckros Villa’s climate protection system is technologically advanced and can be set up without requiring mechanical connection work. In this way, a very tight construction has been achieved which promotes the building’s ability to retain energy, improving energy consumption. The house has a patented insulated foundation that provides a dry interior environment without condensation problems. The villa’s climate protection system is constructed with modern non-organic materials. The underwater construction is a watertight insulated foundation in concrete. Above water surfaces including the load bearing outer walls and roof are of a sandwich construction. Outer materials are glass, gel coat and treated aluminium.

Stability and mooring
Näckros Villa sits securely and stably in the water with its 165 ton constructed weight and is impervious to wind, waves and winter ice. The whole building is surrounded by an aluminium-mooring bar so a boat can be easily fastened. The house is constructed to be placed beside a jetty or pier whilst the welcoming entry hall is reached via a jetty from dry land.

Environmentally sound
A Näckros Villa is constructed with material recycling potential as a starting point. New techniques and carefully chosen materials have resulted in a house that is extremely comfortable to live in and is in many parts recyclable.

Heating and ventilation
Heating is provided by a pump, which draws heat from the surrounding water. Heat is distributed through the house through water bearing under floor heating. Two-way air ventilation can be found throughout the house. As far as possible, the house has been designed to meet demands in respect of both energy and environment.

Electricity and water/drainage
In its base form, Näckros Villa is constructed to receive electricity and water/drainage from land. However, the villa can be designed for higher levels of self-sufficiency. All electricity cables have a reduced electro-magnetic field and are in halogen free format.
