For your renovation plans in Kloten, the federal building register data provides essential insights. With a median building volume of 748 m3 according to the SIA 416 standard, you can better estimate the scope of required heating or insulation works. Please note that the data coverage for volume is partial, as only 23 buildings have been officially measured out of 814 recorded houses. These figures allow you to assess renovation costs more accurately by aligning your budget and technical planning with the actual size of your property and the specific standards applicable within this municipality.
