Error in Table
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in **Table 1. Experimental methods applied to determine walls’ U-value** as published. There has been a change in the commas in the costs expressed in Euros during the production process of the published version of the paper. For example, the heat flow plate has a cost of 700 €, but in the published version it is 70,000 €. This is an issue related to spaces and commas. The corrected **Table 1. Experimental methods applied to determine walls’ U-value** appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. The original publication has also been updated.
