Hello,
I am currently reviewing the application form for the air-to-water heat pump subsidy from BAFA. There are quite a few details to consider, fill out, and provide.
Now, a heat pump quality check is also required after one year of operation. With a subsidy of €1300, an estimated €300-400 will probably be spent on that.
Has anyone here applied for the BAFA subsidy and can share how the process went and how smoothly everything was handled?
It raises the question of whether the effort is worth the subsidy.

I sent an email to BAFA regarding the list of heat pumps and which ones are eligible for funding. From their response, it appears, as I had suspected, that this list only includes devices that are eligible at all. However, the actual funding depends on the calculated annual performance factor, which must be greater than 4.5. Below is the message from BAFA:

Dear Mr. ...,
The list of heat pumps with test certificates includes all heat pumps that are eligible for funding in principle. Air-to-water heat pumps are mainly eligible for funding in existing buildings because they only require an annual performance factor of 3.5 there.
