Contexto local · Cornellà de Llobregat
In Cornellà de Llobregat, sealed boilers are mandatory since 2007.
Cornellà de Llobregat grew fast between 1965 and 1985 and most of its buildings fall in that bracket: 6–10-storey blocks in Centre, Almeda and Sant Ildefons. The big recent change is Next Generation-funded refurbs, mostly heat pumps and external wall insulation; our installers process the grants and sign the energy certificates. We still find old town-gas inlets in kitchens that need auditing before any work. Cornellà has decent loading zones and ample block parking, which keeps long-day jobs cheaper than dense L'Hospitalet or Santa Coloma.
