Construction costs are currently skyrocketing

There is no problem. The good person just likes to ramble, spreads half-knowledge, and acts knowing.

Oh, is that (this) a certain person with multiple accounts? ;)

Almost. There is the annoying one with many accounts who can’t do anything alone and here, the rambling "knowledgeable" one with, in my opinion, two accounts. Those are probably two people.

Otherwise, we also have 4 x 35 mm2 on the property as well as a connection value of 60 kW. Just like pretty much every house here in this part of town.

So the provider says that they have been dimensioning this here in the region for years with a minimum of 4x50. The network in the streets has been and is being expanded. I also see no problem there.

Here in the new development area 4x50... degrees checked extra

Grmpf... I let my sanitary order linger in the shopping cart for a few days because I wanted to wait for feedback on whether I had put everything together correctly and appropriately. Now our washbasin (Villeroy & Boch Artis) has gone up from €299 to €359. And our bathtub from €359 to €409. Such a bummer. Now I'm thinking about ordering the washbasin without "CeramicPlus". That is still at €309. Of course, that doesn’t make a huge difference now. Does anyone have experience whether this CeramicPlus process really does anything? Or is it just pure marketing talk?

We had such a coating in the old house in the toilet. It didn’t last long. And then it actually became really rough.

Now our Hampelampel is thinking about a scrappage bonus for heating systems. I am about to lose my faith. Here are some costs for an energy renovation to make a house built according to the 1st WSchVO (1978) fit for a heat pump: 35K insulation, 20K windows, 10K radiators. Then the heat pump for 25-30K. Definitely worth it, right? Of course there are subsidies, I also get a loan, but how is that supposed to be managed in such a short time? And what about the pensioners who have worked hard for their little house for their retirement? Do 75-year-olds still get a loan? How is that supposed to be paid off? That is practically equivalent to expropriation. Last year I was still torn about what we should do (voluntarily). Now I am glad that our gas heating system was an economic total loss and that since 11/22 we have had a very good condensing boiler that will save us about 30% and will have amortized itself after about 7-8 years. We will now gradually bring the house up to date energetically, as it makes sense and is financially feasible. Because one thing is clear... it can’t go on like this, but please with sense and reason, and not the way our green children’s book author would like it!
