Your project in the canton of Fribourg
The canton of Fribourg links French- and German-speaking Switzerland, and bilingualism is part of everyday life. The city of Fribourg, with its Lower Town beside the Sarine, has old houses where access can be narrow. Bulle and the Gruyère region combine newer districts, farmhouses and alpine chalets, while Châtel-St-Denis opens onto the Veveyse. In the north, Estavayer-le-Lac and Murten line the lakes, with remarkably well-preserved walled old towns. In the Sense district, around Düdingen, German is the main language. Your request can be written in English anywhere in the canton; let us know whether contact in French or German also suits you. Façades, windows or an extension may require approval, and your municipality can tell you more. Give the municipality, postcode and preferred language for communication, along with building access details.
- For a house in Fribourg's Lower Town, describe the access constraints and the slope of the street.
- In the Gruyère region, for a chalet or farmhouse, give the altitude and explain access in winter.
- State your preferred language, particularly in the Sense or Lake districts.
Heating work in the canton of Fribourg
Between the Sarine and the Broye, heating projects reflect the diversity of the landscape. In the Gruyère, around Bulle, family homes and alpine chalets make use of plentiful wood, with wood-chip or pellet boilers. In the old town of Fribourg, houses in the Lower Town, clinging to the banks of the Sarine, pose challenges of access and space for a new boiler room. Towards the Broye and Estavayer-le-Lac, farms and newer villas often opt for a heat pump. In Murten, buildings in the medieval town call for discreet work. Fribourg winters, damp and foggy on the Plateau, justify careful controls. For a borehole, check with your municipality in Fribourg from the earliest sketches.
- For a farm in the Gruyère, check that the barn offers a dry, ventilated space to store wood chips.
- In Fribourg's Lower Town, assess with the installer how the boiler will be brought down to the cellar before choosing the model.

Frequently asked questions
How is a heat pump installation organised in Fribourg?
The heating engineer first visits to assess your home, your current system and suitable equipment locations for the selected heat-pump type. They then size the heat pump, handle any necessary formalities with you and plan the removal of the old system. The work ends with commissioning and an explanation of how to use the controls.
What affects the choice of a replacement heating system?
Building insulation, hot-water needs and the existing heat emitters affect system sizing and operation. Available indoor and outdoor space also matters. Ask for an assessment of these points and of the procedures applicable to the chosen system before selecting equipment.
What should I compare in heating engineer quotes?
Compare the proposed system, controls, hot-water provision and work on existing pipework. Clarify removal of old equipment, electrical connections and commissioning. Ask which performance assumptions were used and whether documentation and an explanation of the controls are included.
How should I prepare for the heating engineer visit or work?
Gather service records, available energy-use information and building plans. Tell the engineer about occupied rooms and restrictions on plant-room access. Agree how heating and hot water will be managed during the changeover, based on the actual installation plan.
