Renovations, heritage and volumes

When planning your renovation in Frauenfeld, refer to the federal building registry data to guide your budget. With a median volume of 954 m3 for the 21 houses measured by the SIA 416 standard, you can gauge the scope for heating and insulation work. Please note that data coverage is partial, as most buildings rely on other standards. Since information regarding renovation years and heritage protection is not currently recorded, you should consult the municipality directly early in your process to confirm local regulations and requirements before finalizing any construction plans for your home.

Tips before you start

  • The federal one-off remuneration (Pronovo) lowers the cost of small systems.
  • Profitability depends mainly on how much power you use on site.
  • A suitably integrated roof system often only needs notification.
