Hello,
I was actually always set on a timber frame construction for the future house. However, now I want to reconsider solid construction because it also has its advantages.
However, I would prefer this without additional external insulation, as that would be redundant, and the insulation doesn’t have as high a lifespan as the masonry itself.
Poroton seems the most appealing to me at first.
But is that even possible? Are there bricks (or other solid building blocks) that alone meet the KFW40 standard or maybe even better?
Does anyone have experience with that?
Has anyone ever built something like this?
I am open to discussion if you think additional insulation makes sense. But no "Styropor" goes on the outside wall; if anything, it would be something else.
What I would like to avoid are comments suggesting that a lower energy standard is sufficient. Nothing worse than KFW40 will be built.
Thanks in advance for your input.
Best regards
Specki
