With the very strong wind last week, we noticed a draft at the sockets in the outer wall. At one socket, the flame of the lighter even went out. So there are always some cracks in the masonry, as such it is basically not wrong that the inner walls should have been plastered at the joint to the outer wall.

I think so too! Unfortunately, it is too late for that. First of all, it is important to me to pass the [blower door Test]. Unfortunately, I have no sense for it. I would be interested to know how high the failure rate is.

As mentioned, the limit of the KfW is comparatively humane.

If you are so uncertain, then take a test before the screed is poured and the interior plaster is applied. That way you can still seal it. Since we are building a [Passivhaus] and are allowed a maximum of 0.6, one has already been done for us as well.

Since when is something like that according to the aRdT?! Even in solid construction, airtight boxes are installed in the exterior walls. The cable routing for the external roller shutter is also sealed airtight inside and outside.

OP, just do a blower door test when the windows are installed and the basic electrical installation is finished, before the screed and before the drywall installation, etc. Then you'll know more. A timely leakage test is invaluable. 1.5 is basically a poor value. For me, anything over 0.6 in new construction would be bad.

That’s exactly how I will do it. Airtight boxes on the outside, normal boxes inside, well plastered.

I plastered the walls of my inspection shaft (bordering the interior wall) just to be safe.

If I have noticed one thing, it’s that you can’t rely on any statement.

The same goes for the energy consultant and architect, they all say different things (meant generally).

I have no problem with the roller shutter (inspection from outside). I used concrete cables, without conduit, which go directly into the roller shutter box.
