Is it true or false that containers are warm in winter and cool in summer?

The container office is a 20-by-20-foot cabinet equipped with 1.5P central air conditioning. In winter, the air conditioner must be turned on for an hour before the temperature in the room can rise. So it is best to add an electric heater or electric heater. Summer is more uncomfortable, and the central air conditioner needs to be turned on for at least two hours. Generally speaking, if it is converted into a company's office/dormitory, it is more convenient to use containers. However, in the summer, it is best to keep the container in a cool place. If placed in the sun immediately, the temperature inside will be very high.

Although the container manufacturing industry is developing rapidly, from a statistical analysis, the key areas with high recognition of container houses seem to be concentrated in developed coastal cities and the Yangtze River Delta region. The acceptance of container houses in other regions is not very high. This may be due to the insufficient mastery of containers in these areas, so it is very possible to generalize container houses and color steel plate houses, but in fact they are two completely different types of portable engineering buildings.
Anyone who has used traditional color steel plate houses in container dormitory rentals must know that the actual effect of sound insulation and noise reduction is not ideal, and the voice and sound of the roof can also be heard under the floor. The key reason is that there is only a thin wooden board between the two floors of the simple house. The resonance effect of wooden boards is relatively large and the air tightness is weak. Of course, the actual effect of sound insulation and noise reduction is relatively poor, which will cause great trouble to ordinary offices and employees' daily lives.
The structure of the container house is completely different from the traditional color steel plate house. The first and second floors of the container house belong to different shells. The wooden floor of each independent shell is made of steel, concrete and floor tiles, with a thickness of more than 20 cm. This kind of structure is of course much better than the actual sound insulation and noise reduction effect of the color steel plate house. However, except for the concrete floor on the first floor, the wooden floors above the color steel plate house are all reused wooden boards, and the actual effect of air tightness and sound insulation and noise reduction is even worse.
