Renovations, heritage and volumes

For renovation projects in Horgen, RegBL data provides essential insights for homeowners. The median building volume is 992 m3 based on the SIA 416 standard for the 35 measured houses, which serves as a vital metric for scaling heating and insulation upgrades. Please be aware that data coverage regarding the renovation year and heritage protection is currently partial within the official register. Because this information is not fully comprehensive, we strongly advise contacting the municipality directly to clarify any potential architectural requirements or local permits needed for your property before beginning any major construction or renovation work.

Tips before you start

  • A battery is worthwhile when solar output clearly exceeds your daytime use.
