Hello, I will start renovating the parental home soon. Built in 1954 with bricks, 1975 extension with Ytong, basement, the location was once a moor area, meanwhile the groundwater level has been lowered even further, the basement is dry or there are no moisture problems. An appointment with an energy consultant is in two weeks, but I didn’t want to go there unprepared. Also because some experts are sometimes very one-sided. In the course of the new pipes, I would dig around the building anyway and insulate at the same time. As far as I can see, the structure is masonry - moisture barrier - XPS or similar state of the art? What kinds of sealing are there? As for the rest of the masonry, I am not quite sure. At the trade fair, I saw Poroton WDF, looks serious, but the insulation values don’t seem to be the best, especially compared to the costs, am I right or wrong? Glass and rock wool don’t really appeal to me, so as an alternative I would be interested in wood fiber boards Steico / Gutex? Is that any good or are there other alternatives? Of course, I understand that a professional still needs to take a close look, but I would be interested in your experiences with this. I don’t want the house to start to mold. Thanks
