The first step is always a site visit. We measure the exact length of copper piping between the indoor and outdoor units and check the available space for the outdoor unit and its orientation. We also assess if the electrical panel has sufficient capacity for the new unit's consumption or if the contracted power needs to be increased, and we check community regulations regarding facade installations. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online – we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. Without measuring the copper, checking the facade, and assessing the electrical panel, we cannot provide an honest quote. Free, no-obligation visit.

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, and LG are the three premium brands we install most often. Their inverter technology is very mature and they consume 40 percent less than older fixed air conditioners to produce the same cooling. Their outdoor noise level is significantly lower, which is important in shared courtyards where neighbours might complain. Their filters are of better quality and last longer between cleanings. The refill itself takes 30-45 minutes. However, the leak must be located and repaired first. Without repair, the gas will escape just as quickly, and it is illegal. Between 30 minutes and 2 hours depending on complexity. A simple fault is identified quickly. Small leaks or electronic issues may require more time.

Official manufacturer warranty (3-5 years) plus our 30-day labour guarantee. Yes, it is mandatory in Spain for any handling of refrigerant gas. Without it, the manufacturer's warranty is voided, and the installation may be declared illegal. Toshiba, Panasonic, and Fujitsu are a notch below in price but not significantly in quality. They are a good option for tighter budgets. More economical brands like Samsung, Hisense, or basic Hitachi models function correctly for the first four or five years, but their efficiency and durability are lower, and they usually require more maintenance.

The price for a gas refill in Santa Coloma de Cervelló typically ranges between €126 and €1602 as an indicative reference. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and work time; we always finalise it after seeing photos or – if you prefer – after a site visit, with no obligation. Both. We always repair where economically sensible. If the repair cost exceeds 60 percent of the price of a new unit, we will inform you, and you can decide. Professional calculation considers all these factors and correctly sizes the equipment. The difference in quoted price between a well-sized and a poorly-sized unit might seem significant initially. The end customer visiting the shop or restaurant ultimately pays the real cost. A poorly air-conditioned space loses customers in the summer when the heat becomes unbearable. For hospitality businesses, where customer comfort directly determines turnover, the right equipment is an investment, not an expense.
