Hello, we have bought a great prefab house. Now I keep having one question in my mind: how stable is such a house? We have [Im OG Fußbodenheizung], have now had a vinyl floor installed and now heavy furniture is coming. Should I be worried?

yes, that's why prefabricated houses are only bungalows, because the ceilings can't hold anything :), actually, the purchase documents should also include information about the components, that is, how the ceiling is dimensioned and how much point load it can bear.

For safety, only one person always goes upstairs, the other can watch downstairs to see if the ceiling gives way ;)

2300 liters are 2.3 tons and that's not even evenly distributed, for that you would have to lay a lot of vinyl, put a piano in and a water bed next to it.

No. About what?

Fifty years ago, we had solid carpenter-made furniture, and the washing machine was standing on vinyl flooring - in a house that has now been standing for 115 years. I still check it daily and it's doing well. It is indeed built of masonry, but of course has modern wooden ceilings. Everything is fine.

Thank you, I suspected that I am being a bit made fun of here because of my fear. But I would never have bought a prefabricated house if I were not convinced of prefabricated houses. But the little devil way in the back digs up all the prejudices and does make me a bit crazy.
