Heating that suits your home.
Replacing a heating system, checking district heating or planning for several apartments? Choose your starting point and take the next step.
01 · Choose your route
What would you like to clarify?
My own house
Prepare the building assessment, installation and complete offers.
Heat pump types
Compare outdoor air, ground and groundwater for your site.
District heating in Ulm
Understand the heat plan and clarify a connection with the provider.
An apartment building
Bring tenants, the owners’ association and management into the planning.
02 · The principle
Where does the heat come from?
Two routes to warm rooms
Heat pumps and district heating supply radiators or surface heating and hot water in different ways.
The right route depends on the building and the site. Use the detailed guides above to assess heat demand, hot water, installation and running costs together.
03 · Local and shared
Two questions need more than a product choice.
Read Ulm’s heat plan
Distinguish a strategic supply area from a connection commitment.
Heating for several apartments
Your role, the existing heating and hot-water systems, and a shared planning process.
04 · Make it practical
Tools for the next decision.
Compare heating costs
Compare investment and running costs using the same assumptions.
Plan energy together
Coordinate heating, solar power and charging with your household’s plans.

Would a heat pump suit my house?
The WärmepumpenCheck provides an initial assessment of your building’s suitability and possible alterations. Technical planning follows with the installer.
Have ready: construction year, current heating, radiators and renovation history.
Electricity connection and controllability: Include the meter, connection and network requirements in the installation planning. Plan the installation →
Start with your bill
What does your heating consumption tell you?

HeizCheck · co2online
Are my heating consumption and costs unusually high?
You need: building and heating details, plus consumption and costs for at least one billing period.
You receive: an assessment, possible savings and guidance for the next steps – also for tenants and owners’ associations.
What the result tells you
Forecasts depend on the provider’s assumptions. A consumption comparison is neither a heat load calculation nor proof that a particular heating system suits your building.

From consumption to your next decision.
Unusual values are a reason to look at prices, usage and the building together. They do not alone determine the right new heating system.
- Have the bill and billing period ready; mark missing building information.
- Clarify open points with your landlord, owners’ association or energy adviser.
- For a heating replacement, then assess suitability, planning and specific quotes.
