Can I install Casambi in my rented apartment?
Yes! Casambi is ideal for rental apartments. You do NOT need a permit from your landlord and you do not need to change the electrical system.
Why Casambi is perfect for rental apartments:
1. No modification of the electrical system necessary ✅
When retrofitting Casambi modules, nothing is changed in your electrical system. No structural measures are necessary and your landlord does not have to agree.
2. Reversible installation (100% residue-free) ✅
Since Casambi does not require new control cables, the system is suitable for retrofitting in almost any object. The installation is completely reversible: the system can be removed, reconfigured or taken to another object without leaving a trace.
This means that
🔹 you can remove Casambi at any time leaving no holes, scratches or traces
🔹 The apartment remains in its original condition
🔹 Simply take it with you
3. No landlord approval required ✅
When implementing Casambi modules, nothing is changed in the electrical system. No structural measures are necessary and your landlord does not have to agree.
✅ Casambi is a non-invasive retrofit
✅ No permit required

Important: While you don't formally need a permit, you can of course involve your landlord in an informative way. This often leads to better relationships and can even show energy-saving benefits for the whole building.
