With a median building volume of 1255 m3 based on the SIA 416 standard, you can effectively gauge the scale of necessary heating or insulation upgrades. Please be aware that data coverage is partial, as this volume is specifically measured for only 19 out of 1523 houses.

Use this data early in your preparation to better align your expectations with local building characteristics and ensure a more accurate budget for your property.
