Contexto local · Sabadell

In Sabadell, sealed boilers are mandatory since 2007.

Sabadell is the largest city in Vallès Occidental, mixing dense old quarters (Centre, Creu de Barberà) with 1980s–90s residential estates (Can Llong, Can Rull). In the old town we deal with buildings whose shared old stacks and tight courtyards rule out external insulation, so we strengthen things from the inside. In the estates, high-rise blocks have single-phase panels we have to rebalance before installing AC or an induction hob. Sabadell has a large self-employed population, so we often convert workshops into homes with three-phase wiring that we re-rate to REBT. C-58 jams early, so first slots go to local clients.
