Hello fellow home builders,
we have started constructing a single-family house. The approved building permit / planning permission includes a gas heating system, which we still want to install.
There are two possible scenarios:
1. What happens if the heating system is installed in October 2023, but the house is only inspected and approved in February 2024?
2. What happens if the heating system is installed in January 2024, and the house is inspected and approved in May 2024?
Both options are difficult to plan for. So far, we do not know whether the construction schedule might be delayed.
I haven't found any information on this. Do you have any further details?
Regards,
robert0815

Regarding the former East Germany, district heating was certainly implemented not only out of necessity already at the end of the 1960s. This is the situation we have today, and here as well. The district heating networks were among the first to be dismantled by West German energy experts in 1989. Yes, out of necessity (and still half of the apartments were heated with coal or similar fuels until 1990. You probably don’t remember the floor heating units in Forst... They burned whatever was available at the time.). There was neither money nor technology in East Germany, but there was plenty of lignite coal. And burning it was easy.
So yes, district heating was installed out of necessity.

Who or what is better for the climate?
The low-income citizen receiving basic social benefits living in a two-room apartment without a car, who has to use a bicycle for everything, or the well-off homeowner who travels on vacation three times a year? The "low-income citizen receiving basic social benefits" lives in an energetically inefficient old apartment and probably produces more CO2 due to the outdated oil heating system and poor insulation than "the wealthy homeowner" does with their electric car (charged by the photovoltaic system on the KfW 40-55 and geothermal-heated house) and their other lifestyle choices. Not to mention the climate impact of the purchases by the low-income earner compared to the sustainably and ecologically produced food consumed by the upper class.
Exaggerated, but maybe it sparks a thought or two for you...

Hey, honestly: I don’t think such statements are acceptable! You don’t have to agree with opinions, and as you can see, there is room for discussion. But what you’re saying here is divisive. I also disagree with such opinions 95% of the time and am open to heated discussions. These are also parts of society, just like LastGen and others. Basically, I agree with both sides – you don’t have to like every opinion, and a democracy can cope with differing views; that’s actually what makes it great. Interestingly, it’s often those who shout "I should still be allowed to say that" who don’t realize that it’s only in their (often criticized) democracy that they can say what they do. They should try behaving that way in totalitarian countries – I think most would quickly have "Russian sympathizer" removed from their list.
But when I read something like:
But I’m already off track anyway. AfD voter, anti-vaxxer, climate denier, Russian sympathizer. The full package! In my view, that hardly has anything to do with opinion anymore. If someone feels the need to strongly identify themselves by swimming against the current in every respect, then that is probably a case best handled by a psychologist.

No, you are accepted. However, by making your decision, you have placed yourself on the fringe of society and put others at risk. You have to live with the consequences that have resulted from it.I would like to know exactly how his fear of vaccination has endangered you or others? Have you completely overlooked the debate over protecting others and similar issues in recent weeks and months?I find it alarming how dogmatic some people can be with their opinions. And anyone who thinks differently and even expresses it is excluded. So anyone who still insists on that after so many scandals have come to light and it is clear that children had to stay at home for no reason at all cannot be helped. This is division at its worst.

Ironically, those who always shout “I should still be allowed to say that” often don’t realize that it’s only in their (often criticized) democracy that they can say what they say. They should try acting like this in totalitarian states—I think most would soon be removed from their “pro-Russian” list.

I never understood this debate before because I always thought: here, you can say whatever you want. But unfortunately, that only applies as long as you hold a certain opinion—if you have a different one, it’s quickly over with saying what you want and think. But you don’t realize that if you think like everyone else.And the topics for this are becoming more diverse—the current one is climate.

No, you are accepted. However, by your decision, you have placed yourself on the margins of society and endangered others. You have to live with the consequences that have resulted from this. It was fascism, fake news, and state crimes, especially against children and unvaccinated people. People were endangered by greedy and/or incompetent politicians. The fact that you still defend these atrocities is disgusting. Totally unacceptable and an insult to the victims.
