That aerated concrete also has its advantages and other materials have disadvantages, I do not want to deny.
But that an aerated concrete house takes longer to dry than a house made of perforated brick + ETICS is obvious to me.
Already because the stone itself takes over the insulating effect, I have a clear temperature gradient in the stone, whereas the perforated brick is completely "warmed through."
By the way, it can take years in reality to achieve the same U-value as calculated (if at all)... because the residual moisture in the stone increases the thermal conductivity!
These disadvantages more or less naturally also apply to insulating stones made from Poroton.
