Thermal protection in Schwörer design

The building envelope of a Schwörer house meets all the requirements of an efficiency house 55.

Haus Aenne

The Schwörer thermal protection concept

The crucial element of the thermal protection concept is a consistent, airtight building envelope free of thermal bridges. Here, the elements of the building envelope – external walls, windows, roof and basement ceiling – are not optimised individually in respect of minimal heat permeability but rather regarded in combination. With seamless, all-round thermal protection, such as is usual in new builds nowadays, the energy losses through the building envelope and thus the heating costs can be reduced significantly.

The building envelope of Schwörer houses meets all the requirements for an Efficiency House 55 as standard, while the design as an Efficiency House 40 (Schwörer EnergyPlus House) is possible with additional measures.

Advantages of the Schwörer external wall

The heart of every Schwörer home is the natural, renewable raw material timber. The PEFC-certified timber from local forestry is processed in our own sawmill, kiln-dried and refined into high-quality timber materials. These timbers are used to form the solid framework structure of the walls. Schwörer external walls are air tight throughout and thermal-bridge-optimised, and they have an excellent thermal insulation value, e.g. in the case of a rendered façade: U value 0.151 W/m2K. In the case of an efficiency home 55, 40 or passive house, U values up to 0.11 W/m2K are possible.

SchwörerHaus Produktion
Production in our own factory

The Schwörer external walls are produced on state-of-the-art production facilities in our own factory in Hohenstein-Oberstetten, regardless of the weather conditions. This guarantees top quality “made in Germany”.

PEFC zertifiziertes Holz
Schwörer PEFC-certified timber

The timber from sustainably managed, local forests is processed in our own Schwörer sawmill, dried to the required timber moisture level and refined into high-quality timber materials.

Mineralwolle
Mineral insulation

Mineral insulation has a high proportion of secondary raw materials as well as advantages such as: non-combustibility, low emissions, no moisture absorption, and no mildew or insect infestations.

The composite ceiling made of timber and concrete developed by SchwörerHaus guarantees an all-round seamlessly insulated building envelope. Providing an internal insulating layer, it offers excellent protection against heat loss from the ground floor to the undeveloped basement: U value 0.195 W/m2K. The biggest advantage compared to a concrete ceiling is the reduction of thermal bridges.

Schallschutz
Soundproofing

Thanks to high-quality building materials and a well-thought out design, Schwörer houses display a good soundproofing value.

Einbruchschutz
Break-in protection

For all Schwörer external walls (without built-in components), the expert statement from ift Rosenheim in 2002 applies, whether rendered or brick slips façade.

Brandschutz
Fire protection

All external walls comply with fire resistance class REI60, in accordance with DIN EN 13501, classified under European standards. In compliance with German standards, this corresponds to F60 (F = Fire resistance, 60 = 60 minutes).

Baufamilie Esstisch
Fresh air in all rooms

The Schwörer ventilation system installed as standard since 1983 permanently ensures fresh air in all rooms – even without regular window ventilation.
