Dear house-building forum,
we are planning a patio roof and are considering using a louvered roof.
Does anyone have experience with these types of roofs, specifically with the following manufacturers/models:

Brustor B200XL
BT Group B600

The Brustor B200XL does not have insulation in the hollow spaces of the louvers (which is said to negatively affect noise) and, I believe, has a lower snow load capacity. Are there any other significant differences compared to the BT Group B600?

In general, what is the situation regarding the following points (has anyone had experience, including with other manufacturers):
  • Noisy during rain?
  • Susceptibility to malfunction?
  • Noticeable loss of light in the adjacent living area (even with the louvers open at 90°)?
  • Dirt accumulation on the louvers (is frequent cleaning necessary)?

Best regards
