Your project in the canton of Lucerne

The canton of Lucerne is centred on the city of the same name, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, and extends into the Entlebuch and the Seetal. Lucerne's old town, with its covered bridges and painted façades, has many old buildings where lorry access is restricted. Kriens, Emmenbrücke and Ebikon form the suburban area, with many rental blocks and condominium flats. On the lakeshore, Meggen and Horw feature villas and houses with views. Further west, Sursee and Willisau have kept small old towns surrounded by countryside and farms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can explain your project in English in your request. For work on an old building or the exterior, check with your municipality. Give the municipality and postcode, the available delivery space and access to the building's different floors.

  • In Lucerne's old town, describe vehicle access and whether there is a goods lift.
  • For a lakeside villa, say whether the plot is sloping and how it can be reached.
  • In a condominium in the suburbs, state whether the work affects the communal areas.

Heating work in the canton of Lucerne

In the canton of Lucerne, the lakeshore and the hills of the hinterland offer varied settings for heating projects. In the city of Lucerne and in Kriens, older apartment blocks and condominiums are modernising their boiler rooms, and some districts can connect to a network that draws heat from the lake. In Meggen and Horw, lakeside villas readily choose air-source systems, with consideration for close neighbours. In the Entlebuch and around Willisau, farms and rural houses often use wood from their own forests. Frequent fog on the Lucerne Plateau makes winter feel longer. In Sursee as elsewhere, check with the municipality now if you are considering a geothermal probe.

  • For a house near the lake, ask whether connection to a network using lake water is being considered in your area.
  • On a farm in the Entlebuch, have a hot water storage tank installed so the wood boiler needs loading less often.

Frequently asked questions

How is a heat pump installation organised in Lucerne?

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.
