Quick answer
Container homes work in cold climates with the right insulation, airtightness, heating and moisture control. Steel conducts heat, so wall, floor and roof insulation plus ventilation to prevent condensation are essential. Specify for your winter conditions, not a mild-climate default.

Why cold climates need care
Steel is a poor insulator and a great conductor of heat, so an uninsulated unit loses heat fast. In a cold climate the unit only works as a home if the insulation, airtightness and heating are specified for the local winter, not a mild default.
Insulate all three surfaces
Walls, floor and roof all need insulation. The floor matters in cold climates where cold rises from below, and the roof matters where heat escapes upward. Insulating walls alone leaves a unit that is cold and expensive to heat.
Airtightness and condensation
Cold outside and warm inside drives condensation, and in a steel unit trapped moisture damages linings and threatens the frame. Seal the building and ventilate deliberately, so moisture leaves rather than condenses.
Heating
Size the heating to your real winter design temperature, and decide early whether it runs on electricity, gas or another source, because it drives the whole energy plan.
Foundations and frost
Frost heave can lift a foundation unevenly and rack the unit. In cold regions that usually means deeper piles or a frost-protected foundation. Skipping this causes doors to stick and frames to distort.

Frequently asked questions
Do you offer financing?
No. Payment is by bank transfer in full before production.
How are units delivered?
Units ship folded and are delivered port-to-port (FOB). You arrange local transport from the port to your site.
Can I order more than one unit?
Yes. Multi-unit orders ship together, which lowers the freight cost per unit.
