Double layer insulation helps keeping the colony warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. It does not absorb moisture, and active ventilation system resists fungus growth which is a common problem in wooden hives.

The hive bottom board also has ventilation slots to fight moisture buildup inside the hive.
