Air conditioning in Alicante.

It depends on the floor area, the orientation, the glazing and how well insulated the property is — not on a rule of thumb. We measure it at the site visit and tell you the output each room genuinely needs. Oversizing costs you money twice: once at purchase and again every month.

Splits are cheaper, quicker to install and easy to replace, and they make sense room by room. Ducted systems are quieter, invisible and better for a whole home, but they need a ceiling void and are usually decided during a renovation. We tell you which one fits your property rather than which one we'd rather sell.

In a well insulated home that also needs hot water and heating in winter, it usually is: one system covering all three, running on electricity, is efficient in a mild coastal climate. In a badly insulated flat used two months a year, it usually isn't — and we'll say so.

Yes. We're a RITE-registered firm, so the installation is certified as required and you get the documentation with the handover — which matters for the guarantee, for insurance and for a future sale.

Once a year for domestic units, ideally before the summer: filters, drainage, gas pressure and a check of the outdoor unit. On the coast, salt air is hard on outdoor units, and an annual service is the difference between one that lasts fifteen years and one that lasts seven.

Yes, and we'll be honest with you first about whether the unit you've chosen is the right output for that room. We install and certify it; the equipment guarantee stays with your supplier, and ours covers the installation.
