Düdingen's housing stock in figures
The federal building register lists 1'590 residential buildings with 4'265 dwellings in Düdingen. 49% were built before 1980, before serious insulation standards, and 27% are still heated with oil or gas.
Only 2.6% of residential buildings in Düdingen report a solar thermal system in the register, so most roofs are still free. Photovoltaics are not recorded there; check the solar cadastre for your roof.

Renovations, heritage and volumes
For your renovation plans in Düdingen, RegBL data provides vital benchmarks. With 9 protected buildings out of 1590, heritage status is clearly defined, although data coverage remains partial. The median building volume is 765 m3 according to SIA 416, a critical metric for scaling heating or insulation upgrades. Note that this measurement covers only 21 out of 958 recorded houses, with others using different standards. We strongly advise contacting the municipality early in your planning process to discuss any heritage requirements and ensure your project complies with local regulations regarding the scale and nature of your intended renovations.
