Renovations, heritage and volumes

For renovation projects in Allschwil, official RegBL figures provide essential guidance. With 961 out of 3468 buildings under heritage protection, it is vital to contact the municipality early regarding necessary permits. The median house volume is 755 m3, which serves as a benchmark for planning the scale of heating or insulation works. Please note that for house volume, only 32 buildings were measured according to the SIA 416 standard, meaning data coverage is only partial. These indicators offer a foundation for homeowners to effectively assess the scope of future property renovations within the municipality.

Tips before you start

  • Solar thermal collectors usually cover much of summer hot water.
  • Combining collectors with a heat pump needs a sizing study.
  • Several cantons subsidise collectors per m² or per installation.
