Once upon a time living in a five-story building on floors 3–5 was prestigious.. Today, when the number of floors in new buildings is in the tens, and you can only reach the top by elevator, the standards of prestige have changed somewhat. The topic, why, looking for a new apartment in Russia, is worth it or not to choose it "at the very top", the following narrative is dedicated to.

Advantages of high floors Certainly, life on the top floors of a new house cannot but attract. And the advantages are obvious:.

• excellent visual overview;.

• cleaner air;.

• low amount of noise;.

• good illumination;.

• strong and stable water pressure in the systems;.

• absence of insects;.

• no top neighbors.

From the 20th (and higher) floor, the review is certainly much more interesting than from the first. Especially if the new residential complex is built in a picturesque place or in close proximity to historical, cultural sites.. Exhaust gases always remain in the lower layers and never rise high.. The traditional noises of the megalopolis also “do not reach” the upper floors..

In new buildings on the Flatfy portal, as in any other, by modern standards all communications and wiring are at the top, not in the basements. From here and a good pressure in batteries, cranes. The number of insects above the 12th floor is always reduced by half. Above the 30th they do not fly at all. And one of the most desirable advantages when choosing an apartment on a high floor is the complete absence of neighbors, as well as the noise from them!.

Disadvantages of high floors However, life in a new building on the top floors also has its negative sides:.

• high price;.

• physical, mental discomfort;.

• large temporary spending when going out;.

• problems with the elevator;.

• noise from utility equipment installed at the top;.

• severe overheating on hot days;.

• increased wind;.

• pressure drops during lifting.

There are authoritative studies that living on high floors is contrary to human nature.. As a result, the fear of heights turns into physical and mental problems and even suffering.. A broken elevator for the inhabitants of the "sky" can be a disaster and be accompanied by large time costs when moving.

Above the 15th floor, gusts of wind and heat increase.

Therefore, residents of the 20th floors should keep an eye on the open windows..

When choosing an apartment in a new Omsk building, you should remember: if it is equipped with a high-speed elevator, sensitive people can suffer greatly from pressure drops when going up. In addition, fire safety in high-rise buildings is somewhat reduced.. After all, it is very problematic to put out fire on the upper floors without special equipment and equipment.. But the choice is always the client..
