How we plan underfloor heating in Ciutat Vella
In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as El Barri Gòtic and El Raval height is limited, so we measure ceilings and doors before choosing the system. When the old floor comes up, noise and rubble removal are planned around the community's working hours.
The system is adjusted to the floor finish chosen in homes in areas such as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera: ceramic and porcelain tiles conduct best, while wood or vinyl must be rated for underfloor heating. The first start-up is gradual, once the screed is dry.
At the visit we measure the available height, look at the current floor and the heat source, and send you a detailed written quote, room by room. We also install underfloor heating in nearby areas: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions
01Underfloor heating installation in Ciutat Vella: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Ciutat Vella, in areas such as El Barri Gòtic, El Raval, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina, La Ribera and La Barceloneta, and also nearby: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02What floor height does it take up?
A standard system adds around 8–10 cm for insulation, pipe and screed, plus the floor finish. Where height is tight, low-profile systems take up much less.
03Which floor finishes can go on top?
Ceramic and porcelain tiles transfer heat most readily. Engineered wood or vinyl rated for underfloor heating also work, at the thickness the manufacturer specifies.
04What heats the water?
A heat pump, the most efficient match because both work at low temperature, or a condensing boiler. If the unit allows it, the floor can also provide gentle cooling in summer.
