Week 24, Day 4:
- Windows! 🙂
- The installation team from ecoHaus Internorm were on site installing the first of the windows. Good progress but a couple of issues:
- The lorry with the bulk of the order wasn’t able to make it to site today so there was a van-load of the smaller windows but no doors yet
- Two of the windows have the wrong colour frames – bright white rather than dark grey. Seems there was a mix-up placing the order with the Internorm factory in Austria. The correct windows have now been ordered from the factory but they’re going to take several weeks to arrive. The white windows will be fitted in the meantime, so at least the property will be secure.
No visible changes on the main time-lapse photo just yet,
The clerestory windows are under the overhang of the main roof (the temporary blue cover for the roof has blown down over the window opening). These are too high to reach by hand and can be automatically opened for purge ventilation overnight in the summer.
The air tightness tapes are Pro Clima Tescon Profil (paler blue) and Pro Clima Tescon No 1 (darker blue).
