Hello,
we have a conservatory with triple glazing that is heated together with the living area.
Inside, there is an uninsulated stone column, located next to the windows. (The stone column is from the original construction.) I understand that this is not ideal from a thermal perspective, so please do not provide advice regarding that.
Unfortunately, the stone column gets completely wet because it is the coldest spot. What can be done about this besides wiping it down?
Is there any way to prevent the moisture?

The problem is, we have had 3 companies involved, and each would have done it the same way.

Yes, continuously throughout,Then insulating the stone pillar alone probably won’t help, since you’ll have the same issue at the window sills.

The correct approach would have been to install the windows first and then insulate everything.Am I correct in understanding that this component is basically just resting on the windowsill?
Structurally, it probably doesn’t have any significance.
In that case, I would just remove it and build something else in its place.
The window connections with the foam haven’t been done properly yet anyway, and nothing is screwed in there—otherwise, the small column probably wouldn’t have survived.
Overall, this is really a nonsensical construction, including the continuous windowsills.
