@Tanari: Congratulations on the successful house. The fence is quite opaque, so the garden becomes a courtyard.

I have been wondering for some time why the downpipes do not disappear into the walls. That should be possible too. Does the insulation become too thin in that area? Is it not possible due to the construction?

Usually, it is the roof overhang that leads to the downpipe solution – sometimes also the standard mindset of the planners and the disregard of the builders. Of course, you can build houses with integrated gutters and drain the water behind the facade – that also causes no noise problems. For flat roof buildings, that is a simple standard. My parents' house, built in 1970, has integrated gutters and downpipes despite a pitched roof. Noise- and problem-free.

they are currently cheap at real. Reduced from 700,- to 500,- euros.
Just search for "Sitzbank petrol".
Also available in other colors and as a chair.
The quality is very very good for the price!

Great, thank you very much. It is really nice.

There are many pipes in the walls of the house.

Yes, in the thermal envelope: controlled and frost-free.

During our renovation, I also had to realize that some downpipes, especially WC, are installed in the facade.

Also ;) the construction industry does shoddy work where you don’t see it. But you can learn from mistakes :cool:

I wouldn't necessarily call it botched work. Building changes over time. Let's wait and see how construction is done in 20 years.

Yesterday we installed everything... and noticed the following. I still need a dimmer module and another universal dimmer from Merten... :-( Does anyone of you need 3xMEG 5171-0000 at a good price?!? The laminate on the lid is super matte, unfortunately it was not glued correctly and has cellulite^^... so all 3 lids have to be redone

probably not at all, because no one can afford it ;)
