An energy consultation for residential buildings is designed to help homeowners decide how the energy efficiency of a residential building can be sensibly improved.
As part of the consultation, the current energy status of a building is assessed and possible energy modernisation options are compared. The client’s objectives are taken into account when defining the content of the options. An economic assessment of the various options for measures is just as much a part of the comprehensive consultation as research into subsidies for the implementation of the measures.
The energy passport is a seal of quality for the energy efficiency of residential or functional buildings and provides information on the determined energy and heating requirements of a building, on CO2 emissions and indicates sensible optimisation measures.
A differential pressure measurement of the building envelope, also known as a blower door test, is used to measure or check the airtightness of buildings, flats or individual rooms as required by the relevant building regulations.
Leaks in the building envelope can be detected and the building structure can
be protected from the resulting damage.
Thermography is an imaging process that visualises the heat radiation (infrared) of an object or body, which is invisible to the human eye. This makes it possible to quickly and impressively detect and prove building defects in a non-destructive manner. It enables the non-contact detection of surface temperature distribution and allows the assessment of thermal properties. Defects in thermal insulation, heat losses and air leaks, as well as faulty building connections, can be detected and visualised as a coloured thermal image.
A thermal bridge is an area in the components of a building that conducts heat better and therefore transports it to the outside faster than the neighbouring components. By reducing or avoiding thermal bridges using calculations and design examples, considerable energy savings are possible and damage to the building can be prevented.
When carrying out your construction project, you may be able to benefit from various funding and subsidy programmes.

With the founding of his engineering office in 2003, Hubert Schmitz laid the foundation for a consulting and service company specialising in the field of energy saving and thermal insulation in the construction sector.
This is characterised by reliable and prompt processing of individual projects. Another quality feature is the in-depth training and further education of the employees, which has always been a top priority.
As a result, engineering office Hubert Schmitz has earned an excellent reputation in the construction and energy sector throughout Luxembourg.
Since October 2022, the two long-standing employees Christian Melchisedech and Holger Groben have taken over the management of Hubert Schmitz and continue to run the company in the usual and proven manner.
