Air con repair in Fuengirola

We'll start with repairs, because that's how most people in Fuengirola find us: the air conditioning has stopped, it's 34 degrees, and there's a guest arriving on Friday. The faults we see most on the seafront are the ones salt air causes. A corroded outdoor coil that can't shed heat, so the unit runs and runs and the flat never gets cool. A fan motor seized after years of spray. Electrical terminals green with corrosion. And, everywhere, the classics: a blocked condensate drain dripping onto the balcony below, filters that haven't been touched since the flat was bought, a remote that's been set to dehumidify since May.

We diagnose first and give you the price before we repair. If it's a part, it's an original part with the price in writing. If it's a fifteen-year-old unit with a rotten coil, we tell you honestly that the money is better spent on a new Inverter unit specified for the coast, and we show you the numbers. No one from ITAFE will sell you a repair that we wouldn't do on our own flat. Refrigerant is handled by certified technicians, as EU F-Gas rules require.

Air conditioning installation in Fuengirola

Most of Fuengirola is flats, so most of our installation work here is split and multi-split: one outdoor unit on the balcony, the roof or a facade bracket, and one to four indoor units. That sounds simple, and it is, right up until you ask where the outdoor unit goes. The community's rules on facades, the distance to the neighbour's window, the drip from the condensate, the wind load on a tenth-floor balcony in Carvajal: these are the details that decide whether an installation is still fine in twelve years or a problem in two.

For the seafront we specify outdoor units with anti-corrosion treated coils, stainless or coated brackets, and we position them out of the direct spray wherever the building allows it. In the townhouses and villas of Torreblanca and El Castillo, near Sohail Castle, we also install ducted systems. Every installation is pressure-tested, vacuumed, commissioned and, as Samsung Certified Installer, registered for the official warranty.

Aircon service and maintenance in Fuengirola

On the coast, an unserviced outdoor unit is a slow-motion breakdown. A proper air conditioning service in Fuengirola is, above all, a clean: the outdoor coil rinsed with fresh water to wash off the salt, fins straightened, the indoor unit's filters, coil and fan cleaned, the condensate tray and drain flushed so nothing drips on the neighbour's washing. Then the checks: refrigerant pressures, electrical connections, the state of the brackets and the pipe insulation, which the sun eats in a few summers. And a report with photos.

For a rental flat, one service before the season is the minimum. For a home you live in all year, or a heat pump that heats in winter, two services a year make sense. With PRO Clima Esencial or PRO Clima Total, we book them, we do them and you get the report. You don't have to remember anything.

• Fresh-water rinse and clean of the outdoor coil to remove salt
• Indoor filters, coil and fan cleaned; condensate tray and drain flushed
• Refrigerant pressures, electrical terminals and brackets checked
• Pipe insulation inspected and replaced where the sun has destroyed it
• Report with photos, sent to you or your rental manager

Holiday rentals and communities of owners

Fuengirola has thousands of flats rented to holidaymakers, and the Andalusian rules for tourist rentals require fixed air conditioning in bedrooms and living areas during the summer months. Check the current wording with your rental manager, but in practice it means: if the air conditioning fails in July, you have a guest problem the same day. We work with owners and rental managers on exactly that: servicing between bookings, a WhatsApp line to a technician who knows the flat, and priority for members when something does go wrong.

For communities of owners, we do the same job at scale. Servicing every outdoor unit on a shared roof in one visit, replacing corroded brackets across a whole facade, or advising the administrator on rules for new installations. One team, one report for the community, one invoice.
