ᐅ Are replacement roof windows in the bathroom covered by the heat pump subsidy?

Hello, my heat pump was installed on July 4, 2023, and commissioned by Weishaupt on July 13. We live in a mid-terrace house and have a daylight bathroom (room up to the roof) with an electric roof window. This window is now 23 years old, and the paint is peeling. The subsidy application was already approved in 2022. Is the replacement with an energy-efficient roof window included in the subsidy for the heat pump?
Regards

I have rarely seen such a silly question. Sorry. Is it called “heat pump funding” or funding for “wishful thinking”?
Maybe they could also cover the more energy-efficient new car. Or the three-week vacation taken by bike instead of by car.
Seriously though, if you receive funding for a new heat pump, it covers the heat pump itself as well as necessary related measures (such as piping to the heat pump, chasing and sealing channels, etc.). But definitely not a new window, which has absolutely nothing to do with the heat pump.

Wow, rarely seen such a silly response. Quite an arrogant attitude. Is that how you usually are?

Only when it comes to pointless questions where common sense already provides the answer. Subsidies for heat pumps. What else do you expect to be included in the subsidy? New windows, new doors, roof renovation, external thermal insulation composite system (ETICS / EIFS)?
Otherwise, you could have simply checked the subsidy conditions yourself. That would have been faster than posting the question here.

The grant was applied for a heat pump, and the implementation of the measure has already been completed. Replacing the windows was and remains unnecessary within the scope of the approved measure. There could hardly be a clearer indication that the application should not be extended. Try submitting a new application specifically for the window replacement. I can only agree with the previous speaker and fully endorse the tone of their response. By the way, have a look at their posting history: not only do they work professionally in construction financing, but among all active forum members (except for the other Karsten), they have also renovated the most houses.

By the way: Funding for new windows is, to my knowledge, only available with an individual energy efficiency plan (iSFP) from an energy efficiency consultant and, of course, an application submitted before commissioning!
