Renovations, heritage and volumes

For your renovation plans in Dietlikon, the official RegBL figures provide useful benchmarks. With a median building volume of 550 m3 based on the SIA 416 standard, you can better estimate the scale of insulation or heating upgrades. Please note that the volume data coverage is limited to only two out of 577 houses, indicating that this information is very partial. Furthermore, as data regarding heritage protection status and specific renovation years are not actionable for your property, we recommend contacting the municipality directly to clarify local building requirements before finalizing your renovation budget.
