Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We service heat pumps in El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start. The electrical check includes nominal compressor consumption on startup and running, wiring insulation check, condition of start capacitors (which degrade after their seventh or eighth year), and thermostat verification. The final disinfection with certified air conditioning product eliminates accumulated bacteria, fungi, and odours in the coil. This is what prevents the characteristic musty smell when you turn on the air conditioning after winter.

How we work

Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. The condensate tray and drain are cleaned separately with descaling product as they often accumulate limescale. If the drain is partially blocked, we will clear it with a flexible hose. Finally, after drying all components, we apply a certified disinfectant product for air conditioning use, which eliminates residual bacteria and fungi without leaving dangerous chemical residues. The next step is cleaning the coil, the part with thousands of thin fins where the refrigerant gas circulates. We apply a specific descaling product for air conditioning, let it act for 15-20 minutes depending on the level of dirt. We rinse with moderate water pressure, protecting the rest of the unit with plastic to prevent water from entering where it shouldn't. The correct technique requires experience: too much pressure bends the fins and reduces performance, too little doesn't remove the dirt.

When to call for a heat pump in El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou

The real economic savings of maintenance are easily calculated. A serious air conditioning breakdown in August, involving compressor replacement or significant leak repair, costs several times as much as annual maintenance for 5 consecutive years. Data from our own clients confirms that units with scheduled maintenance last 40 percent longer than units without any maintenance. Yes, but we locate the leak first. Recharging without repairing is illegal and a temporary patch. If there's a leak, we repair first, then recharge. Air conditioners on the Costa Blanca accumulate dirt significantly faster than in dry inland regions. Three factors combine. Firstly, the average relative humidity in coastal areas is 70-75 percent for a large part of the year, which keeps the coil constantly exposed to condensation. Secondly, Saharan dust arriving each summer leaves a thin but sticky layer that adheres to the fins and traps other contaminants. Thirdly, sea air with suspended particles loaded with salts contributes extra organic material to the filter.

Materials and brands

2-3 hours per standard indoor unit. Multi-splits, add 1-2 hours per extra unit. We use protective material to avoid stains. The most requested service is the replacement of electric water heaters at the end of their useful life. The bungalows in La Herrada were built between the 90s and 2000s with 100 or 150-litre heaters that are now exhausted after twenty or twenty-five years in hard water. Replacement with a new model from a quality brand, Junkers, Cointra, Edesa, with a sacrificial anode to extend the service life. Half-day operation per unit. Technically, this means we work almost exclusively on bungalows with similar installations. The same electrical panel model is repeated for dozens of homes, the same type of electric water heater installed by the original developer, the same air conditioning from the 2000s already on its second life. For an electrician or plumber, this is a huge advantage; diagnosis is faster, and common parts are kept in stock. The total intervention time per fault is reduced.

Frequently asked questions

How long does an annual maintenance take?
Approximately 2 hours per standard split unit. Multi-splits require an extra 30-45 minutes per indoor unit. Large capacity or ducted units: 3-4 hours.
When is the best time?
Between March and May is ideal, before the season starts. October-November, post-season, is also a good time. June-July are saturated.
What happens if I haven't had maintenance for years?
Likely very dirty filters, coil with biofilm, tray with mould, skewed pressures. The first check recovers a good part of the original performance.
Do you replace the gas if it's low?
Yes, but we locate the leak first. Recharging without repairing is illegal and a temporary patch. If there's a leak, we repair first, then recharge.
Do you have an annual plan with a discount?
Yes, annual contract with scheduled visits and preferential urgent response during the season. For multiple units or multi-splits, an extra discount.
