Universal Summer Bat Box 2FTH

with temperature controlled hanging places
made of SCHWEGLER lightweight concrete

Experience with our tried and tested, Universal Summer Bat Box 1FTH has shown that wood-free clinging panels in a large roost can be advantageous for some construction projects. This can be, for example, due to projects requiring the approval of the property owner, planner or designer or fire safety, as well as the location itself. It has been found that this type of roost is also used in underground basements and bunkers, where the high humidity means that wood is undesirable. At the same time, the animals’ preferences or the fact that they are used to a cooler or more humid hanging site make this type the recommendable choice. In addition, this model offers an alternative clinging panel look, which can be helpful for individual projects from a planning point of view. Otherwise the 2FTH is largely the same as model 1FTH.
