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

The cancellation notice was incorrect, they used contradictory dates, referred to wrong documents, and the deadline was that everything had to be uploaded one month after commissioning. According to their own guidelines, however, you have 6 months. Internally, our Novelan has a meter for energy used and received, but you first need actual data for that.

The Heizi will surely be happy if I also want a yearly performance factor certificate according to VDI 4650.

Annual performance factor verification according to VDI 4650

That's quickly calculated. BWP annual performance factor calculator and off you go...

Brought up the old topic again. Has anyone, after 1 year of operation of the system, had a real annual performance factor issued by the heating engineer and submitted it to Bafa? I think I read that they want such proof after one year. (But I can't find it anymore in the abundance of information sheets) Thanks in advance!

Jo is written there like that, but my heating engineer didn't get in touch with me and BAFA isn't responding either, so I'm waiting to see if anything comes, and then my installer will receive the letter.

Yeah, that's what it says, but my heating engineer didn't get in touch with me and BAFA doesn't contact me either, so I'm waiting to see if anything comes, and then my installer will get the letter.

In my opinion, it is not stated like that. The funding requirements specify that a quality check must be contractually agreed with the plumber after 1 year of operation.

This is then verified during the application process via the specialist contractor declaration (point 7). There, the plumber must confirm that the contractual agreement exists.

Even back then, I couldn't find anything stating that specific results from this 1-year inspection were expected.

Also, nothing about this is mentioned in the supplementary provisions to the funding notification.

So, nothing more will come of it.
This does not affect the fact that all documents must be kept for 7 (?) years, because BAFA can conduct audits during this period.
