Each line gives the share of buildings using that energy, separately for heating and for hot water. The two columns do not always reach 100%: some buildings combine two systems, or reported none.
A standard non-condensing boiler is usually older and less efficient.
11 % of buildings mix housing with shops or offices.
For your renovation projects in Liestal, data from the federal building and dwelling register provides key insights. With 663 buildings under heritage protection, it is essential to contact the municipality early to clarify permit requirements. Regarding building volume, the median value for the 25 properties measured according to the SIA 416 standard is 734 m3, which helps in scaling heating or insulation work. Please note that volume data coverage is partial, as the majority of buildings are recorded under other standards or are unknown. These figures are crucial for planning the scope of your renovation investment accurately.

Solar thermal collectors capture sunlight to heat a fluid circulating towards a storage tank. In Switzerland, this technology is particularly efficient during sunny months. Solar thermal collectors usually cover much of summer hot water.
To optimize output, it is crucial to position the panels correctly and ensure the system's insulation is of high quality.
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity of your installation while providing consistent performance for your household's daily hot water needs, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable and energy-efficient home.
Sizing is a key step to ensure your installation is cost-effective. A system that is too small won't meet your needs, while an oversized one is unnecessarily expensive. Combining collectors with a heat pump needs a sizing study.
This type of hybridization often achieves optimal efficiency throughout the year.

The area depends on the number of occupants and your hot water consumption. Generally, expect about 1 to 1.5 m² of collectors per person for a standard installation. A sizing study remains essential to refine these specific requirements for your home.
Yes, but with reduced efficiency due to fewer daylight hours and lower temperatures. The system then uses auxiliary energy, such as a heat pump or boiler, to ensure a constant water temperature for your daily needs.
A well-maintained solar thermal installation can last between 20 and 25 years. The storage tank may require replacement or servicing after 15 to 20 years, depending on water quality and the regularity of the maintenance performed.
In Liestal, it is advisable to contact municipal authorities to check local requirements. Some solar installations are exempt, but rules regarding architectural appearance may apply, particularly in protected areas within the canton.
