Preferred heating system: air-to-water heat pump

If you have to give up anything, which details/extensions
-can you do without: carport

What is the most important / fundamental question about the floor plan in 130 characters?

Are there any experiences with the Vaillant flexotherm exclusive with uniSTOR 300 l (79 gal)?

Vinyl flooring or parquet?

Ceiling spotlights in the hallway loft from Werkaus, or better to install yourself?

I would really appreciate tips and your opinions about the floor plan!

Best regards, Eckert

You don’t need to put in much effort. The building permit application needs to be submitted soon, so there will hardly be time for major changes.

This forum is really not hard to find online—so why do some homeowners still wait until the last minute?

You said the building permit application would be submitted in about 2 weeks. So by mid-November, that’s 3.5 months. I’d expect rather the end of November, which would be 3 months minus Christmas and winter holidays... And from early December until Christmas, I don’t think many people will be reviewing your building permit application.

It will work out, we have already spoken more than once with the local building authority.

The request was not to throw everything overboard and start planning from scratch. I just wanted to present the floor plans and maybe incorporate some ideas from you.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you. I spoke with the building department and forestry office about 10 to 15 times. Still, it took 10 months. I hope you have a plan B in case the price guarantee is gone and you face at least a 10% surcharge?

If you need to submit the building permit / planning permission within 2 weeks at the latest, there is no room for major ideas or changes.

Yes, swallow the bitter pill and keep going.
