Revolutionary Construction for Every Season
The Forest Xtend 3.0+ stands out with its use of Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), a modern building material known for its energy efficiency and durability. Unlike typical garden buildings, the Xtend utilises SIPs not only in the walls but also in the roof and floor. This ensures a consistent and comfortable environment, free from dampness and extreme temperatures.
Wall Thickness That Speaks Volumes
Each wall in the Xtend 3.0+ is a marvel of engineering. With a remarkable total thickness of 177mm, these walls offer superior insulation and soundproofing. The combination of 75mm of insulation, oriented strand board, and external and internal cladding creates a robust barrier against the elements. The tongue and groove cladding provides a sleek, modern appearance, while the pre-cut MDF interior is ready for your personal touch with a simple coat of paint.
Floor and Roof: Built to Last
The floor and roof of the Xtend 3.0+ are designed with the same attention to detail. The floor SIP offers a sturdy base with a thickness of 108mm, ready to be customised with your choice of flooring. The roof, with its 122mm thickness, is topped with an EPDM rubber membrane, providing a maintenance-free solution with a 50-year guarantee. This ensures that your garden office remains protected from the elements year after year.
Doors and Windows: Light and Security Combined
Natural light floods the interior through fully glazed double doors and adjacent windows. The uPVC 5 chamber specification frames are grained on the exterior and smooth white inside, perfectly complementing any decor. The A-rated double glazing not only enhances thermal insulation but also reduces noise. For added security, the doors feature a 7-point multi-lock system, while the windows are equipped with key-operated locks.
Energy Efficiency at Its Core
The design of the Xtend 3.0+ ensures it remains warm in winter and cool in summer. Its energy efficiency is rated at category C, with the potential to reach B with the addition of solar panels. This makes it a sustainable choice for environmentally-conscious homeowners. The combination of SIPs, cladding, and double glazing creates a haven that is both comfortable and cost-effective.
Installation and Maintenance Made Easy
For those who prefer a hassle-free setup, Forest Garden offers a professional installation service. The pre-cut components and ready-made SIPs make construction straightforward for those with DIY skills. Once assembled, the timber requires regular treatment to maintain its appearance and durability. Recommended products include Sikkens Cetol HLS Plus and Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain.
Adding Electrics for Modern Living
While the Xtend 3.0+ does not come with electrical fittings, it is designed to accommodate them. The interior cladding allows for easy installation of wiring and lighting, providing flexibility for future upgrades. Solar power options are also available, offering an eco-friendly alternative to traditional electricity sources.
Convenient Delivery Options
Forest Garden ensures a smooth delivery process with free shipping to most UK postcodes. For those in more remote areas, a small surcharge may apply. The option to select a convenient delivery date adds an extra layer of convenience, allowing you to plan your installation with ease.
In summary, the Forest Xtend 3.0+ is a thoughtfully designed garden office that offers a blend of practicality and style. Its superior construction and energy-efficient features make it a valuable addition to any home, providing a versatile space that can be tailored to your needs.
