When should radiators be replaced?

  • Radiators only half warm
  • Rust or drips at the joints
  • Radiators that are decades old
  • Switching to a heat pump or new boiler

What radiator replacement includes

  • Output per room

    Number of sections or panel size based on the heat each room needs.

  • Draining and removal

    We drain the system and take out the old radiators without marking the floor.

  • New radiators

    Aluminium, steel or a towel rail for the bathroom, level and firmly fixed.

  • Thermostatic valves

    So you can control each room separately and avoid overheating.

  • Adapting the connections

    We adjust pipes and elbows if the distance between tappings changes.

  • Refilling and bleeding

    System back under pressure, with no air and no leaks at any joint.

Replacing radiators in Ciutat Vella: how we approach it

1960s and 70s flats in areas such as El Barri Gòtic and El Raval usually have a wall-hung boiler in the kitchen or utility gallery and exposed copper pipes along the skirting. We reuse sound connections, replace old valves and, if a radiator moves, route the pipe the most discreet way.

In homes in areas such as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera, we hang each radiator on brackets suited to the wall type, level and rising slightly towards the bleed valve so air escapes easily. On refilling we check the boiler pressure and the tightness of every fitting.

On the visit we count the radiators, look at the boiler and pipes and give you a detailed written quote, radiator by radiator. We also replace radiators in nearby areas: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions

01

Radiator replacement 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.

02

Can I replace the radiators without changing the boiler?

Yes. If the boiler works well, we only change the radiators and adapt the connections. We do check that the total output matches what the boiler can deliver.

03

Which radiators work with a heat pump?

Low-temperature models or larger ones, because a heat pump sends cooler water around the system. At the visit we size each one.

04

Does the wall need opening up?

Usually not: we reuse the existing connections. We only open the wall if a radiator moves or the new one has a different distance between tappings.
