Your project in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn extends along the foot of the Jura and the Aare. The town of Solothurn, with its churches and Baroque houses, has an old town where getting around by vehicle is difficult. Olten, a railway hub, and Grenchen, shaped by watchmaking, have rental blocks and districts of family homes. Zuchwil and Biberist form a more residential suburban area, while Balsthal opens onto the Thal valley and its farms. In the north, Dornach lies within Basel's orbit. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can still be written in English. In the old town or for a change to a façade, it is essential to check with your municipality. Give the municipality, postcode and delivery access restrictions, especially if the building is in an old town.
- In Solothurn's old town, say whether access is via a pedestrian street or a courtyard.
- For a family home in Grenchen or Olten, give the year of construction and any work already carried out.
- For a farmhouse in the Thal, describe access to the building and the parts to be renovated.
Ventilation and air conditioning in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn, stretching between the Jura and the Swiss Plateau, mixes historic towns, industrial communities and farming villages. In Solothurn, the baroque buildings and patrician houses of the old town require discreet interventions, such as extractor fans placed in the attic. In Olten, a railway hub, recent offices and homes near the station need effective cooling in summer. In Grenchen, the watchmaking industry and mechanical workshops require filtered air and localised extraction. In the villages of the Thal, around Balsthal, renovated houses benefit from continuous ventilation to prevent damp. Before installing an outdoor air-conditioning unit, ask the municipality which formalities are needed.
- For an office close to a railway line, ask for mechanical ventilation that allows the windows to stay closed.
- In a patrician house, have the decorated ceilings identified before planning the route of the ducts.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose an air conditioning system in Solothurn?
Consider the number of rooms to cool, their exposure to sun and the space available for the outdoor unit. Split systems, multi-split systems and reversible heat pumps suit different needs. Ask the installer about noise levels and maintenance.
How do ventilation and cooling requirements differ?
Ventilation addresses air exchange, while cooling manages room temperature; a project may need one or both. Describe occupancy, moisture concerns and heat exposure. Ask the installer to assess air distribution, noise, controls and the space required before recommending a system.
What should I compare in ventilation and air conditioning quotes?
Compare equipment, distribution routes, controls and installation alongside any drainage or electrical work. Ask who checks applicable procedures and permissions for the chosen location. Clarify commissioning, maintenance access and user instructions so proposals cover a functioning system rather than equipment supply alone.
How should I prepare for the ventilation and air conditioning visit or work?
Collect room plans and existing system information, and note access to ceilings, balconies or roofs. Describe spaces that must remain in use. Agree locations and cable or duct routes before installation, with relevant owner or property permissions checked for the project.
