This distribution describes recorded buildings, not your system's consumption or efficiency.
| Energy | Heating | Hot water |
|---|---|---|
| Gas | 34 % | 29.7 % |
| Heating oil | 40 % | 29 % |
| District heating | 1 % | 0.3 % |

| Wood | 3 % | 1.7 % |
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.
For renovation projects in Windisch, the federal building register (RegBL) identifies 260 out of 1270 buildings as protected heritage sites. If your property is classified, you must consult the municipality early regarding permits. Regarding building volume, data is partial as no values following the SIA 416 standard are available for the 837 residential buildings recorded. Furthermore, no data exists regarding the year of renovation for the 1270 buildings in this municipality. Due to these gaps in the register, homeowners should obtain specific building assessments independently to ensure accurate planning for their energy or structural upgrades.

First check whether your area can connect to a priority district heating network. This alternative may be a requirement or a preferred solution in certain areas.
A preliminary assessment avoids unnecessary investments and ensures your choice fits into the overall energy planning of the municipality. If a connection is possible, it might prove more advantageous than an individual installation.
Do not hesitate to consult the competent municipal services to confirm the status of your property before ordering your equipment.
The capacity of your heat pump must be rigorously calculated to ensure optimal thermal comfort throughout every season. The local design outdoor temperature sets the heat pump's capacity required for your building.
An oversized or undersized unit will impact not only your energy consumption but also the lifespan of the installation. Hire a qualified heating engineer to perform a complete thermal study.
This expert will adapt the unit's power to the actual heat loss of your home, thus ensuring maximum performance and controlled energy bills in Windisch.
Outdoor air-water heat pumps must meet noise limits towards neighbours. These devices produce a constant noise level that can become annoying if not properly oriented or insulated.
It is advisable to position the outdoor unit away from rest areas, such as bedrooms, and use acoustic screens if necessary. Compliance with these guidelines is crucial for maintaining good relationships with your neighbours.
A preliminary noise study can help you choose the ideal location to minimize noise pollution right from the project design stage.
Budget planning is a key step before starting energy renovation work. The total cost will depend on the heat pump type, connection work, and any necessary adaptations to the existing heating system.

On average, a well-maintained heat pump has a lifespan of 15 to 20 years. An annual service performed by a professional helps to extend this duration and optimize the energy efficiency of your installation over time.
It is highly recommended to insulate your home before installing a heat pump. Better insulation reduces heat demand, allowing you to choose a less powerful unit, which lowers both purchase costs and your future electricity consumption.
The choice depends mainly on your land, current heating system, and budget. Air-water heat pumps are the most common for renovations, while geothermal systems offer better efficiency but require more extensive installation work.
Yes, in most cases, installing a heat pump requires prior authorization from your municipality. It is essential to submit a complete file including plans and proof of acoustic compliance before the construction work begins.
