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
01Radiator 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.
02Can 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.
03Which 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.
04Does 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.
