Hello,
At my house, which is currently under construction, there is a large window section on one side measuring approximately 3.30 meters (11 feet) wide and 5.50 meters (18 feet) high (according to the plans, see photo).
According to the thermal insulation requirements, some type of sun protection or privacy screen must be installed here as well. On the inside, there is no ceiling because it is a large gallery area. Do you have any suggestions on what kind of sun protection could be installed there? Roller shutters would be too large for the total area, a venetian blind would be too unstable and also too large in area? Zip screens could develop mold in damp conditions? I already thank you in advance.
Best regards

The architect said that it’s not a problem.What exactly is not a problem?
Are you mainly concerned with sun protection or privacy, or do you need both?
The energy performance assessor is, of course, concerned with sun protection, specifically summer thermal insulation. Privacy protection also plays a role. He mentioned either external sun protection through louvered blinds/zipscreens or solar control glass combined with internal sun protection.

Definitely "and" – although what he actually needed was—back then you would have had to address this—a safeguard against an architect who randomly implements homeowner requests without discussing whether some should perhaps be reconsidered first. Zero problems works on Melmac.

For the thermal protection verification person, it’s naturally about sun protection, specifically summer heat protection. I already said: the issue isn’t the verification in theory, but you in practice.

Matthew0324 Mar 2020 15:37Venetian blinds! Including wind sensors, so they will retract when it gets too windy. It is rare to have strong winds during the height of summer, so you seldom have both intense sunlight and strong wind affecting the blinds at the same time.

Venetian blinds! Including wind sensors; if it's too windy, they should roll up. It is rarely that windy in midsummer, so strong sunlight and high wind rarely occur at the same time for the blinds.That’s why I asked. But if he wants privacy so the neighbor can’t see his plate after 4 p.m. in winter, then the risk of the blinds rolling up when it’s windy is higher.
The facade isn’t that bad; does it have a misalignment?
The advantage of screens is their low installation height, meaning a smaller casing, and they are NOT susceptible to wind. You can control light transmission by choosing the fabric. The downside is that they are more expensive and you can’t adjust the amount of light like with a venetian blind.
Ours are too new to have any experience with mold. However, one or two screens have wrinkles; I hope this can be adjusted somehow.
Do you want recessed or surface-mounted casings? If so, you need to act quickly.
