Underfloor heating in Horta-Guinardó: height, structure and equipment
In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró 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.
In homes in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera we start with the perimeter strip and insulation boards, with no gaps between them. On top we lay the pipe in a spiral, closer together near large windows and outside walls, where the home loses most heat.
A site manager coordinates removing the old floor, the installation and the screed pour, and we leave the base clean for the tiler. We also work nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions
01Underfloor heating installation in Horta-Guinardó: which areas do you cover?
We work in Horta-Guinardó in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó, Can Baró, El Carmel, La Teixonera, Horta, La Clota and La Font d'en Fargues, and also nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.
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.
