Your project in the canton of Vaud
The canton of Vaud stretches from the shores of Lake Geneva to the Vaud Alps. Lausanne, built on steep slopes, has many older rental buildings, condominium flats and streets where parking is difficult. On the Riviera, Vevey and Montreux combine Belle Époque buildings with villas overlooking the lake, while the slopes of Lavaux are covered in terraced vineyards. Nyon and Morges combine old towns and residential districts. Yverdon-les-Bains, at the end of Lake Neuchâtel, and Payerne, in the Broye, open onto more rural surroundings. In the Chablais and the Alps, around Aigle, chalets and mountain houses contend with snow. For a façade, windows or an extension, approval may be required, so check with your municipality. State the municipality and postcode, the type of property and access to the rooms or outdoor areas concerned.
- In Lausanne, describe the slope of the street, the floor and parking options for a works vehicle.
- For a winegrower's house in Lavaux, describe access via the vineyard paths and the space available.
- For a chalet in the Vaud Alps, give the altitude and the period when the road is clear.
Heating work in the canton of Vaud
In the canton of Vaud, heating projects involve both Lausanne's apartment blocks and the chalets of the Vaud Alps. In the city, many buildings are run by a property management company and are connecting to district heating or modernising their shared boiler room. On La Côte, between Morges and Nyon, villas and winegrowers' houses are abandoning oil for a heat pump. In Montreux, grand hotels and Belle Époque buildings require careful work. In northern Vaud, around Yverdon-les-Bains, and in the Broye, farms readily turn to wood. Whether in Payerne or Lausanne, check first with your municipality in Vaud.
- In a Lausanne apartment block, ask the property management company to schedule the work outside the cold season to limit disruption for tenants.
- For a chalet in Aigle or the Vaud Alps, plan frost protection for the pipes between infrequent stays.

Frequently asked questions
How is a heat pump installation organised in Vaud?
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.
