Sustainable insulation: a key to saving energy in real estate 

The correct insulation of buildings is crucial for energy efficiency and therefore also for the long-term value retention and living comfort of a property. For owners who want to use their property themselves or sell it, it is important to understand the benefits of sustainable insulation. Advantages of sustainable insulation materials Modern insulation materials offer a variety of...

Window replacement: a sustainable investment with added value 

Replacing old windows is one of the most effective ways to increase the energy efficiency of a home. For property owners who want to reduce their energy costs and increase living comfort, replacing windows is a worthwhile investment. Modern window technologies not only offer better insulation, but also help to maintain the value of the property. Advantages...

Intelligent lighting systems: save energy and increase comfort 

The energy efficiency of real estate is not limited to heating and insulation. Lighting is an increasingly important area. Intelligent lighting systems offer property owners the opportunity to save energy and increase living comfort at the same time. These systems are easy to install and offer a wide range of benefits. Automatic control for optimum...

Replacing roof insulation: Why the investment is worthwhile for owners 

A house quickly loses 20 to 30 percent of its heat through the roof - especially if the insulation is outdated or non-existent. For owners, roof insulation is therefore one of the most effective measures for increasing energy efficiency. It reduces heating costs, improves the indoor climate and increases the value of the property - often with state subsidies. Differences in the...

Venting radiators: small measure, big effect on energy consumption 

As the heating season approaches, owners should not forget one thing: to bleed the radiators in good time. This is because air in the system can significantly reduce the heating output - the heating hisses, remains cold at the top and consumes an unnecessary amount of energy. The good news is that you can fix this problem yourself in just a few simple steps - and save money. How do you recognize air in...

Retrofitting roller shutters: save energy and increase living comfort 

Roller shutters are more than just privacy protection - they improve thermal insulation, keep the heat out in summer and provide additional insulation in winter. For owners who want to optimize the energy efficiency of their home, retrofitting roller shutters is therefore a worthwhile measure. At the same time, it increases living comfort and can also improve burglar resistance - a plus for the entire...

Heating with wood pellets: how efficient and sustainable is the system really? 

In times of rising energy costs and growing interest in ecological heating systems, wood pellet heating systems are becoming increasingly important. This technology offers an attractive alternative, especially for owners who want to rely on an independent and CO₂-neutral heat supply. But what are the benefits of heating with pellets - and what should owners look out for? Sustainability...

Solar thermal energy for single-family homes: how owners can make optimum use of solar heat 

If you want to heat your home sustainably and reduce energy costs at the same time, solar thermal energy can be an attractive solution. Unlike photovoltaics, it does not generate electricity, but heat - ideal for heating water and supporting the heating system. Particularly in well-insulated houses, a high proportion of the energy can be covered by the sun -...

Smart thermostats: How owners save energy and gain comfort 

Heating costs are a significant part of the running costs of a house or apartment. Smart thermostats help owners to use energy more efficiently - and increase living comfort at the same time. The technology is now fully developed, easy to retrofit and often even eligible for subsidies. What smart thermostats do Modern devices regulate the room temperature as required - for example...

Avoid heat loss: Recognize the weak points in the house 

Many properties lose energy unnoticed - and therefore cause higher heating costs than necessary. If you know the typical weak points, you can take targeted countermeasures and make a big difference with simple measures. Owners benefit twice over: from lower operating costs and a better indoor climate. Windows and doors: more than just passages Leaky window frames or poorly closing...
