 For achieving cost efficiency, it is crucial to couple the energy-saving measures with renovation measures that would have been necessary in any case. For example, if the facade needs to be renovated anyway, then the additional expenditure for simultaneous thermal insulation to the Passive House Standard will remain manageable. Nowadays, it is possible to carry out better measures at low differential costs, later installation would require the same effort once again for scaffolding, installing, protection from weather, etc. That is why, from the very beginning, great attention must be paid to a high quality of the thermal and energy-relevant aspects of each procedure. For achieving cost efficiency, it is crucial to couple the energy-saving measures with renovation measures that would have been necessary in any case.
