Hello everyone,
I am currently planning to insulate the facade of my house with an 18 cm (7 inch) thick external thermal insulation composite system (ETICS). This year, I want to install a 6 m (20 ft) wide aluminum patio roof with laminated safety glass (VSG) on this facade.
Since multiple fixing points will be needed for the roof, I want to prepare the facade now in a way that allows for secure and as thermally efficient as possible attachments later on, minimizing thermal bridges.
My questions for you:
• How can I best prepare the facade if the exact positions of the drill holes are not yet finalized?
• Are there proven solutions to safely transfer high loads into the facade later?
• How would you generally approach this?
Thanks in advance for your advice!
