Renovations, heritage and volumes

For your renovation plans in Illnau-Effretikon, please note that the Federal Building and Dwelling Register data is partially covered. Regarding heritage protection, only 222 out of 2780 buildings are known, making it essential to contact the municipality early to confirm your property status. Furthermore, data for the 1774 houses regarding SIA 416 building volume is listed as unknown or based on a different standard. As there is no recorded median for renovation years, you should consult the municipality directly to clarify local building regulations and technical requirements before beginning any large-scale insulation or energy-related heating renovation projects.

Tips before you start
