Hello, I spoke with a construction company yesterday, I don't know if I am allowed to mention the name, but the wall structure is styrofoam block with a concrete core. I was told that a ventilation system is MANDATORY to meet the KfW70 standard!?!? With another construction company using 36.5 Ytong, there was never any mention of a ventilation system!?! What is correct now?

So a "squeaky house," as we call it internally in the industry

What is true now?
There are two possibilities – the salesperson is a donkey or, more likely, he simply lied to you because he couldn’t bring himself to tell the truth. There is no obligation to install a ventilation system; not yet anyway. But that does not mean that it is not strongly recommended with the competitor’s wall construction.
