External thermal insulation<\/strong>, often referred to by the acronym ITE<\/strong>, is a popular method for improving the energy efficiency of buildings. When it comes time to do some renovation work renovation<\/strong> or improvement, the question ofwindow sill<\/strong> becomes crucial. In fact, this element is not only aesthetic, but it also plays a fundamental role in thesealing<\/strong> and the thermal performance of your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is the window sill important in ITE?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

L'window sill<\/strong> is an integral part of the fa\u00e7ade. Its role is not limited to supporting the window, but it also participates in the evacuation of rainwater thanks to its characteristic inclination. In ITE<\/strong>, the complexity increases because it is necessary that this support<\/strong> continues to play its roles while integrating perfectly into the system ofexternal insulation<\/strong> selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the major challenges is to avoid thermal bridges, those areas where heat can easily escape, compromising the efficiency of theinsulation<\/strong>. A\u00a0window sill<\/strong>\u00a0Poorly installed or inappropriate can quickly become a weak point in the insulated structure. <\/p>\n\n\n
