Hello everyone,
I might install an air conditioning unit in a timber frame house afterwards. For that, I have to run several cables through the facade.
How do I make it airtight and watertight?
([Die Kupferlegierungen sind schon isoliert auf der Rolle also Rel. Weich außen])
And above all, so that no condensation forms!!!
Inside is not a problem, as I connect directly to the vapor barrier; I’m only afraid that water might get in from outside somehow and soak the insulation.
I have considered pushing a water pipe through that slopes slightly outward and then sealing it with UV-resistant silicone. Then run the many pipes and cables through it and seal them completely with silicone so that no water can get in.
1. Should I additionally insulate the pipe from the outside? There are these heavy black rubber mats at the hardware store.
2. Before sealing the pipe with silicone, should I stuff it with insulation material on the inside?
I have googled a lot but found nothing.
Thank you very much for your tips!
