Façade insulation: prepare your Klimabonus application

Distinguish repainting, finishing render and added insulation. Map external walls, plinths, window reveals and excluded areas. Mention other planned envelope work before choosing the administrative route.

Guichet.lu distinguishes renovation with energy advice and a single-element route involving an approved company or adviser. Klima-Agence advises; advice or a quote is not an award decision. Assign preparation, signature and submission of each document.

Official criteria distinguish performance, material and fixings for certain cladding configurations. Equal thickness or a bio-based label is insufficient. Request system data, eligible areas and justification of the stated category before relying on a grant estimate.

The procedure requires approval in principle before work, followed by a payment application. Record approval references and expected evidence. Have changes to product, area or design checked before execution; do not assume approval covers every variation.

Keep quotes, itemised invoices, technical confirmations and decisions. Ask the municipality separately about schemes and conditions. A finish alone does not establish eligible energy renovation, but neither does it rule out every local or heritage scheme.
