The Building at 92 Otamana Holovatoho St.: How Odesa Gets Its Warmth Back Through “yeVidnovlennya”

My name is Yulii Illich, and I have been working with windows for almost fifteen years—first with my own hands, then writing texts about them. Over time, you get used to the fact that every customer review is not just a pin on a map, but someone’s home where you can safely let winter in again. This time, we are talking about the building at 92 Otamana Holovatoho Street. To be honest, the street name turned out to be almost prophetic: the residents were literally given back a roof over their heads—and the windows through which that roof no longer chills their rooms.

What Happened and What Does “eVidnovlennya” Have to Do with It

The order was far from simple: a comprehensive housing restoration project following a strike, located at 92 Otamana Holovatoho St. in Odesa. Unfortunately, such requests to the OKNODOM company have long ceased to be rare. The work was carried out simultaneously under two compensation programs: the UN and the state program “eVidnovlennya.” For the owners, this means one thing: shattered windows, frozen slopes, and drafts could be fixed not out of their own pockets, but through the program, provided the building met the criteria.

In this article, we won’t dive into the program’s bureaucracy—that’s what specialized consultants are for. Instead, we’ll focus on what we know best: what was actually installed in the apartment on Holovatoho and why we chose the REHAU Euro 70 profile.

Why REHAU Euro 70 Instead of Something Simpler

When a house is being restored after a strike, skimping on the profile is a doubly bad idea. First, installing a window once and forgetting about it is much cheaper than tearing apart the slopes again in three years. Second, commissions and compensation programs usually require a certified level of thermal insulation, rather than just “any window.”

REHAU Euro 70 is a German system with a 70 mm mounting depth and a six-chamber design. In practice, this means low thermal conductivity of the profile, resistance to deformation in the sun and frost, and compatibility with modern hardware without play or backlash. For Odesa—where frames bake in the sun on south-facing facades in the summer and sea breezes chill them in the winter—it is a practical choice rather than a marketing gimmick.

What the Window Is Actually Built From

A special note on the slopes, because that’s usually where people try to save money and regret it later. On the outside, we use STIZ sealants: they resist moisture and temperature fluctuations, ensuring the slope won’t crack or fall off after a single season. On the inside, we install 10 mm thick sandwich panels as a complete turnkey service—meaning you aren’t left with a contractor walking away and leaving you to finish things up with putty; you get a fully completed result.

What the Residents Themselves Say

Here is what Zhanna Halytska, a local Google Maps Local Guide, wrote after the project was handed over:

“We ordered a comprehensive housing restoration project following a strike under the UN and ‘eVidnovlennya’ programs at: 92 Otamana Holovatoho St., Odesa. The company OKNODOM manufactured and installed new windows using the Rehau Euro 70 profile system with tempered energy-saving glass. They also completed interior slopes using plastic thermal panels, exterior slopes, and professionally sealed installation joints with special sealants for reliable protection against moisture and drafts. All work was performed professionally, neatly, and within the agreed timeframe.”

How Much It Costs and How to Quickly Estimate the Price

The exact cost depends on the dimensions of the openings, the number of sashes, and whether the property qualifies for compensation under the program. But to avoid guessing blindly, the website features a REHAU window calculator—just input your parameters and get an estimated cost in a couple of minutes, without phone calls or waiting for a manager.

Quick Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install REHAU Euro 70 through the “eVidnovlennya” program?

Yes, if the property and the applicant meet the program’s requirements. More details about the profile itself can be found on the “eVidnovlennya” page and the REHAU profile page.

How does Euro 70 differ from more budget-friendly profiles?

By its six-chamber design, 70 mm mounting depth, and compatibility with double-glazed units up to 42–44 mm thick—which directly impacts thermal insulation and noise reduction.

Are slopes included in the window price?

At OKNODOM, slopes—both interior and exterior—are part of the comprehensive turnkey installation service, not an extra headache to deal with after the windows are put in.

How long do I have to wait for installation after the measurements are taken?

Deadlines are agreed upon individually and fixed in the contract—in the Holovatoho 92 project, the timeline agreed upon with the residents was strictly respected.

Conclusion

The building on Holovatoho is not an isolated incident, but a reliable workflow: measurements, REHAU Euro 70 profile with AXOR hardware, a 42 mm double-glazed unit with argon, turnkey slopes, and timely handover. If you are facing a similar situation—with or without a compensation program—start by visiting the REHAU Euro 70 profile page or head straight to the OKNODOM homepage, where you can also request a free measurement.
