The focus was on using Iso-span, which is particularly great for insulation and creates a lovely cosy room feel, as well as being good for the environment. Thanks to this environmentally-friendly building material, the hotel is able to "breathe" and provides a basic pre-requisite for a holistic and comfortably warm stay in the Hotel Walchseer Hof at Walchsee. Our heat pump also spares the environment, taking its energy predominantly from ground water. The heat pump reduces our oil consumption by 3/4 of our original use. This means we only use oil for heating during peak times in the winter! Our hot water comes exclusively from solar facilities on our roof and from heat recovery. This ensures we provide comfortable ventilation and constant fresh air in our rooms. Solar energy is particularly efficient in the Kaiserwinkl region since the Kaiser mountains are one of the most sun-blessed areas in Austria in the summer.
