Bafa funding for heat pumps will be discontinued as of 31.12.2020.

The sanitary company commissioned by our general contractor explained everything to us in detail during the planning discussions about how the BAFA funding process works and also provided several partial offers, divided into eligible and non-eligible for funding. This was totally transparent for us and we had no effort at all. All BAFA applications are submitted on our behalf, we only have to sign...
BAFA funding for brine heat pump + central ventilation system + all related work = €14,300 + funding of the central ventilation system €1,000 from Progres.NRW. All applications were submitted at the end of November. Construction begins in January, so hopefully we can still seamlessly take advantage of KFW 55 and BAFA.

I also spoke with my plumbing company today and they are still taking care of the offer and the application. Now I want to include KNX components for the heating control. Does anyone here have a rough idea of what that costs? I understand that it can vary, but maybe someone has taken the trouble to create a list and can share it here. Then I can simply add a surcharge to the plumbing costs. Thanks to all of you.

You commissioned the connection with controlled residential ventilation

I did commission both, but for me they do not work via a common control.

For my part, I only included the controlled residential ventilation in the total costs in my application. I had uploaded the offer right away (which is probably not necessary), where the controlled residential ventilation is then included.

Thanks, I’m curious. I believe I remember that we have the same combo with you (Vaillant Arotherm plus VWL75/6 + revoVair)? In my case, however, I used the Vaillant funding service and was just surprised that the controlled residential ventilation was not taken into account at all in the funding application.
However, a lump sum of 50,000 EUR was also applied for…, so the controlled residential ventilation is probably included in that. The details will presumably come at a later date after execution and the corresponding evidence. That’s the information I received.

Hello, I would like to add the following problem or questions regarding this.
We want to build a house with Town & Country (no final contract signed yet). The land purchase contract will only be signed at the notary in January.
Since the current funding expires on 31.12, the following plan:
According to the guidelines, one should be the owner, tenant, or lessee. A lease agreement can surely be arranged quickly with the current owner (really necessary?).

Town & Country (or their heating installer) is making me a (rough) offer so that I can still submit the application to Bafa.
Alternatively, I have someone else who would also make me a complete offer (including drilling, underfloor heating, screed, pump, etc.) and would even submit the application.

Are the above steps sufficient?
I am unsure if I am overlooking something or if I am just imagining this to be too easy...
In my opinion, I am thus considering all necessary requirements and regulations and can still use kfw55 (until 30.06.21).
Thanks (I have already searched half the web, but it is hardly possible to find reasonably reliable information).

If I understood correctly, you only need to be the owner at the time of implementation, not at the time of application. I can also buy the property next year and have not even committed to a provider yet, but I am considering whether to submit an application based on the previous calculations. You really don't have anything to lose.
