As he adds, you can find there the information expected by the residents about the conditions for being granted subsidies for the replacement of old and non-ecological furnaces in their homes, the thermo-modernization of their houses or the installations of renewable energy sources.

However, this is not all – there is also an official list of boilers and fireplaces using solid fuels, meeting the eco-design requirements and an online calculator prepared in cooperation with the Krakow Smog Alert. It enables to quickly calculate how much we can save on replacing our coal furnace with other types of heating sources – and it is not only about saving our money, but also about the environment.
