It is said that the house on the second floor has shortcomings. Is it really not suitable for buying? A lot of questions!

"No matter how stupid you are, don't buy the top floor, and no matter how poor you are, don't buy the first floor" is an old saying of buying a house, followed by "No matter how many floors a building has, it is not recommended to buy the second floor". It can be seen that the house on the second floor is worse than the first floor and the top floor for most people. Now the house price is high, it is difficult to buy a house, and it is not easy to buy a suite with all the strength of the wild. Everyone wants to buy a high-quality house with limited budget, and the choice of floor is one of the factors that people pay special attention to.

As we all know, on the surface, the second floor makes it more convenient to travel, and there is no problem of wet bottom, mosquitoes and garbage. It looks much better than the first floor, but some people say that the second floor has at least six shortcomings, so can it be bought on the second floor?

About the six shortcomings of the second floor For the second floor, there are many advantages on the surface, but there are at least six shortcomings in essence, and they are still real shortcomings, and even a few of them are "hard wounds" that cannot be solved. Details are as follows:

1. Daylighting problem

Although the second floor is said to avoid the humidity on the first floor, it still belongs to the lower floor, so the lighting is still insufficient. Most of the lighting on the second floor will be affected by the distance between buildings and the greening of the community. Let them turn on the lights at home during the day, so as to meet the normal brightness requirements.

According to the Code for Planning and Design of Urban Residential Areas, the building spacing should not be less than the coefficient of building height multiplied by 0.7 in the north-south direction, and should not be less than the coefficient of building height multiplied by 0.5 in the east-west direction.

As for the distance between the front and back of houses, the ratio of building height to building distance = 1: 1.2 can be used to calculate the houses in ordinary communities.

Simply put, if the sunshine of a two-story building is not affected, the building spacing should be greater than106m. This value seems simple, but it is impossible in many communities, so the lighting on the second floor will be affected.

In addition, even if the building spacing on the second floor of a high-rise building is sufficient, it may be affected by the greening trees in the community, resulting in poor indoor lighting.

At the same time, buying a house on the second floor will also have restrictions on decoration. In the choice of materials, we should consider the brightness as much as possible, and increase the indoor brightness through decoration.

Bottom line: the second floor can achieve good lighting, and most of them have poor lighting.

2. Backwater problem

As we all know, the first floor is prone to backwater of sewer pipes. Fortunately, the newly-built residential area has made an independent sewer for the first floor, which can minimize the backwater problem in the use of sewer pipes. However, new problems follow. The return of water on the first floor has become the return of water on the second floor.

According to the standard design of drainage in Design Standard for Water Supply and Drainage of Buildings (GB500 15), the probability of backwater due to nonstandard design is small. But after the first floor becomes an independent sewer, the second floor is essentially the lowest end of the sewer. Once the sewer is blocked, the second floor is the first to bear the brunt, causing the sewer to flow back.

The most important thing is that the probability of water return on the second floor is not rare, but common, especially in low-lying areas. At this time, the overall drainage pipeline of the community is not very good, which often leads to the return of water on the second floor, which directly damages the renovated house and affects decoration, household appliances and furniture. It can be said that it is terrible.

3. Noise problem

Everyone knows that the noise on the first floor is relatively loud, but in essence the second floor is also affected by noise.

Because there is only a small distance between the first floor and the second floor, it can be said that the noise that can be received on the first floor can basically be affected on the second floor, and it will not be said that it is obviously less than that on the first floor.

If it is an elevator room, the noise on the second floor can be relatively reduced, because everyone can get on and off the elevator directly through the elevator; If it is a stairwell, the noise on the second floor will not be reduced, and people walking and talking will spread to their homes.

4. Security issues

The house on the second floor is a low-rise building, which is the same as the first floor in terms of safety. It can be said that it is in an unsafe environment, so safety measures should be taken before moving in.

In particular, the second floor with poor community management has worse security performance, and it is basically no different from the first floor in terms of security.

Faced with this reality, many people choose to install anti-theft nets, built-in diamond screens and so on to ensure the safety of property at home!

5. The problem of mosquitoes

It is said that there are many mosquitoes on the first floor, which is well known. In fact, there are as many mosquitoes on the second floor.

Every summer comes, and there are many mosquitoes on the first floor. At this time, because of the influence of mosquitoes on the first floor, there are many mosquitoes on the second floor. In addition, there are many mosquitoes on the balcony and outside the window because of poor ventilation and lighting and the influence of green trees in the community. Even if there is a screen window at home, mosquitoes will take advantage of it if they are not careful!

Therefore, every year in this respect, as residents on the second floor, we should try our best to make indoor mosquitoes less and make our lives more comfortable.

6. Trouble in decoration

For the second floor, although the decoration is decided by ourselves, due to various reasons such as poor ventilation and poor lighting, there will still be some limitations in the decoration, and many times I have to choose a way I don't like.

When the second floor is decorated, as the whole of the wall and the ground, only light colors can be selected to increase the indoor brightness, and at the same time, more lighting can be done than other floors to meet the demand of increasing brightness.

Can I buy a house on the second floor? Faced with so many shortcomings on the second floor, can you buy a house on the second floor? To this end, I will give it to my friends who plan to buy the second floor. The author has the following suggestions:

1. Understand the design of drainage system and drainage pipeline on the second floor of the residential area.

If you plan to buy the second floor, you must first understand whether the location of the community belongs to a low-lying area. If so, don't consider it, because there is a great chance that you will re-enter the water after you check in, which will have a great impact on your life.

If the second floor is below the building lobby, commercial outlets, etc. However, the drainage supervisor of the whole building needs to be tiled for many times to change direction and detour into the sewage pool, so the probability of backwater on the second floor will increase obviously, which is particularly troublesome and difficult to maintain. At this time, it is recommended to carefully consider buying.

On the other hand, if the residential area is in a high zone and the drainage pipeline design of the residential area is reasonable, then the backwater probability as the second floor is extremely low. At this time, when adding some sewage pipes, you don't have to worry about it later. You can consider buying a second floor.

2. The building spacing is large, and there is no problem with lighting.

For most communities, it is difficult to meet the requirements of good lighting on the second floor, but this does not mean that all communities can do it, and a few communities can do it.

If you plan to buy a house on the second floor, you should know the floor spacing of the community in advance, so that you can know whether there will be lighting problems when you move in later. As long as the building spacing is greater than 106 meters, and the house is not high-rise, it can be bought in theory; On the other hand, if the spacing between buildings is too small and the residential areas are high-rise, then we should buy them carefully.

3. Choose a community with high quality property services.

Once you buy a house, property is the most concerned issue, because a good property can save a lot of hearts for residents and directly improve the living comfort.

If you plan to buy a house on the second floor, you must know about the housing. For most new residential areas, the first property company is basically a developer, that is, a developer, so you must choose a developer with a big brand, so that you will have a quality property later.

With high-quality property, no matter whether it is backwater or residential greening to block light, excellent property should be treated accordingly, and at the same time, some measures should be taken to prevent similar things from happening again, so that residents can feel more at ease. Once it is such a high-quality property, you can consider buying the second floor. After all, the price on the second floor is much more practical than other floors.

Be careful when buying a house on the second floor. Although it can be cheaper in price, buying a house is a big deal and cannot be sloppy. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully understand the quality of the house, the distance between buildings, the small property rights, etc. in advance, so that it is more comfortable to live after purchase.
