Who pays in a rental
A dripping tap or a blockage you caused is often the tenant (huurder). A broken pipe in the wall or a boiler at end of life is usually the landlord (verhuurder). This is not legal advice; the contract can differ. Source: Rijksoverheid, checked 2026-10-09.
ISDE is not an English form on this site
A heat-pump subsidy (ISDE) is applied for via rvo.nl, with a recognised installer. Amounts change. This website does not file the application. Source: RVO ISDE, checked 2026-10-08.
