Hello everyone,
I would be interested in opinions regarding the installation location of a satellite dish. The corner of the house between the eaves and gable side points almost exactly south. So the gable side faces southwest and the eaves side faces southeast. The house will have a pitched roof with 2 full stories and a 25° roof pitch in timber frame construction. Would you rather attach the satellite dish to the roof or to the wall? If the dish were attached to the gable, the thermal bridges would probably be negligible since it is an uninsulated roof. But what about the wind load? The externally applied wood fiber insulation boards are 120mm thick. With roof mounting, lightning protection would be more important and it would be harder to access. Thank you very much
