Comprehensive child-friendly and ecological concept
The challenge

The roof is insulated with GUTEX Ultratherm, which is installed over the rafters, and is complemented by blown-in woodfibre between the rafters to produce a substantial course of insulation.
Project features
- Net floor area: 591 m2.
- Primary energy source usage (as per EnEV abbr.: QP): 107 kWh/(m2*annually).
- Roof U-value: 0.13 W/m2K.
- Wall U-value: 0.15 W/m2K.
- Diffusion-open wall and roof insulation with woodfibre insulation.
