We previously lived in an uninsulated timber-framed house with single glazing. We had an indoor temperature of 32 degrees and survived. So with triple glazing and an insulated roof, it should be somewhat better. And if necessary, there are curtains or blinds.
In our first apartment, we never used the roller shutters and always had a very pleasant temperature. After all, we still live in Germany. For 10 hot days a year when it could become unbearable inside, I won’t have ugly roller shutters installed and then have switches for them in every room. Besides, it’s always a bit cooler near flowing water. We have thought it through carefully – no worries!
The stilts remain open. There are both open and closed versions on our street. We decided on the open version for aesthetic reasons. So the water can simply flow through when it comes. Likewise, rainwater or, as is currently very frequent, heavy rain that does not soak away, therefore cannot damage our house. Building in the air can also have advantages.
