Air conditioning installation

Installation done properly, the first time

A good air conditioning installation is about far more than fixing a unit to the wall. On the southern Costa Blanca, where summers in Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa regularly push past 30 to 35 degrees, the difference between a well-planned system and a rushed one is felt every single day from June to September.

We install split, multi-split and ducted (conductos) systems for homes and businesses across the area, from apartments in La Zenia and Playa Flamenca to villas in Cabo Roig, Villamartín and Punta Prima. As RITE and F-Gas certified installers, we make sure every job is compliant, registered and built to last in the salt air near the coast.

Choosing the right system

The best system depends on your home and how you live in it. We will talk you through the options in plain English before you commit to anything:

• Single split — one indoor unit paired with one outdoor unit, ideal for a bedroom or living room.
• Multi-split — several indoor units running from a single outdoor unit, which keeps the exterior tidy and is popular on apartment terraces.
• Ducted (conductos) — discreet units hidden in the ceiling that cool the whole home through vents, leaving walls clear.

We only fit inverter technology. Inverter compressors adjust their output continuously instead of switching fully on and off, so they hold a steady temperature, run more quietly and use noticeably less electricity, which matters when the air conditioning is working hard through a long Mediterranean summer. We will also explain the energy class of each unit so you can weigh up the upfront cost against your running costs.

Correct sizing for our climate

Getting the sizing right is the single most important part of the job. An undersized unit will struggle and run constantly; an oversized one cools in short bursts, wastes energy and controls humidity poorly.

We never guess. During the site visit we measure each room and account for ceiling height, insulation, the number and orientation of windows, and how much direct sun the space gets. A south or west-facing living room near the coast takes far more heat than a shaded north-facing bedroom, so the required kW (frigorías) is calculated for your home specifically, not from a rough rule of thumb.

How the installation works

We keep the process clear and predictable from first contact to handover:

1. Site visit and survey — we assess the property, discuss where units should go and answer your questions.
2. Written quote — a clear, itemised quote with the recommended units and no surprise extras. See our honest approach to pricing on the contact page.
3. Fitting — clean, careful work with floors and furniture protected, pipework run neatly and brickwork made good.
4. Commissioning — we vacuum the lines, check the refrigerant charge, test every mode and show you how to use the controls and timers.

We treat your home with respect and tidy up fully before we leave. Many of our customers are British and Nordic expats as well as Spanish locals, so we are happy to explain everything in English or Spanish, whichever you prefer.

Warranty and peace of mind

Every installation comes with the manufacturer warranty on the equipment and our own workmanship warranty on the fitting. Because the work is carried out by F-Gas certified engineers and properly registered, you have genuine cover if anything ever needs attention.

To keep that warranty valid and the system running efficiently in our dusty, salty coastal conditions, we recommend a yearly service. You can read more about air conditioning servicing, and if you ever have an issue we also offer repairs and refrigerant regas.
