Thanks again for your tips! :)
I will probably proceed now by leaving a hole with a diameter of 200mm in the basement ceiling at the spot where the kitchen island is planned. That should be easier and cost-neutral compared to penetrating reinforced concrete later. If I am not satisfied with the recirculation performance of the hood and some time has passed, I would then possibly upgrade to hybrid.
The problem: The energy consultant is EMPLOYED by the house manufacturer. Some will now take notice and question his independence. Go ahead! Why get involved in something like that? Because the energy consultant is a mandatory service for KFW loans, from which you do not get much benefit. In the case of our manufacturer, these costs of €5,000 are credited towards the purchase price, i.e. the total sum is reduced.
Now the question will arise whether the closed extractor hood is worth €5,000. I will answer that when I have gathered experience with the imposed recirculation solution after moving in. Whether I would have signed the contract if I had been told the circumstances beforehand? Hard to say, because it does not stop at €5,000. Such a hybrid solution (in the island!) costs a further > €5,000. For €10,000, you can also maintain a few pieces of furniture.
The KfW issue of verifiability has already been mentioned. It would be senseless in multiple ways to waive the subsidy, if only because the whole financing can be turned upside down by it and the commercial bank would have all the freedom in the world to now dictate its new and worse conditions. Keyword refinancing.
