Few days a year, but you have to be ready

The Costa Blanca has a reputation for mild winters, and it’s true. But there’s a long six weeks, between mid-December and late January, when the poorly-insulated houses that dominate Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and Pilar de la Horadada become uncomfortable. Double hollow brick walls with no insulation cavity, high ceilings in older flats, and large glazed surfaces in urbanisations create a chill that surprises newcomers.

The classic problem hits when you fire up the boiler or underfloor heating after eight months idle and nothing happens. Pump seized, expansion vessel pressure gone, thermostat reset to default. We see it every November.

What we do

Natural, propane and butane gas boilers, installation, replacement and repair. Electric boilers and water heaters where there’s no gas supply. New radiators, replacements, bleeding and valve leak repairs. Electric and hydronic underfloor heating for full renovations, increasingly the default in new Costa Blanca builds for comfort and efficiency.

Mandatory annual gas boiler service: combustion check with analyser, safety valve test, heat exchanger clean and the official certificate. Without it, in case of an incident the insurer can refuse to cover.

Programmable and phone-connected thermostats like Tado, Nest or Honeywell, installation and setup. For holiday rentals it saves serious money: switch the heating off remotely when guests check out.

What we do

What heating in this region looks like

Lots of property here was built for the high season, summer. Minimal insulation, single-pane windows, sometimes no boiler at all and replaced by cheap electric radiators in each room. Once the westerly wind shows up and night temperatures drop to 8 °C, those electric radiators burn a fortune and still leave the house cold.

In the 80s-90s urbanisations the boiler is almost always in the kitchen or utility room with a forced flue out of the window. If the boiler is over 12-15 years old and still atmospheric, replacement with a condensing model is worth considering: 25-30% gas saving and many community bylaws now require the upgrade at next renovation.

For inland detached houses, Crevillente, Aspe, Catral, Almoradí, we’re fitting more and more aerothermal systems. It’s essentially a heat pump giving heating, cooling and hot water from a single unit. With the Costa Blanca’s mild temperatures it performs exceptionally well.

Certified pros, no improvisation

Gas work in Spain requires the RITE certificate and a registered owner. For installation overhauls, an official boletín on top. We only work with technicians who hold both. Improvising on gas is dangerous: a poorly-tightened joint, a badly-sized flue, and you’ve got carbon monoxide indoors.

Boiler servicing is done by the same technician who would handle a serious breakdown later, meaning they know the installation. The difference vs a one-shot insurance call-out shows in lifespan. A properly maintained boiler runs 18-20 years. A neglected one fails at 8.

They swapped the old boiler for a condensing one in a morning. Saw the saving on the first gas bill and the house heats up twice as fast now.

FAQ

Is annual boiler servicing mandatory?

Yes, for gas boilers in Spain it’s required by RITE regulations. The check covers combustion, safety valve and the official certificate. Without it the insurer can refuse to cover an incident.

How much does a new gas boiler cost?

1,400-2,400 euros for a condensing boiler installed, depending on brand, capacity and the work needed. Payback through gas savings is usually 4-6 years.

What is aerothermal and is it worth it on the Costa Blanca?

A heat pump that produces heating, cooling and hot water from a single unit. It performs excellently here thanks to the mild climate. High upfront cost but substantial savings over 8-10 years.

Do you repair old underfloor heating?

Yes. We diagnose circuits with thermal imaging, locate leaks without breaking the floor where possible, and repair the manifold or valves as needed.

Do you work with butane and propane?

Yes. Butane and propane boilers are common in areas without natural gas. Our technicians are licensed for all three gas types.

Is the quote free?

Yes, completely free and no obligation. Site visit for diagnosis and proposal. If you don’t go ahead, you pay nothing.
