Renovations, heritage and volumes
For renovation projects in Fully, the median building volume of 767 m3 serves as a vital benchmark for scaling heating or insulation upgrades according to the SIA 416 standard, though data coverage is limited across the 2542 total buildings. Regarding heritage protection, no specific protected status is recorded for the 164 buildings with known data. Because coverage is partial, we strongly recommend contacting the municipality early in your planning process. Engaging with local authorities ensures you identify any potential architectural constraints or historical requirements that may affect your permits or the scope of your renovation work.
