The inside of our three bedroom apartment was totally refurbished by La Manga Builders. Windows, doors, floors, two bathrooms and kitchen replaced and bedrooms and lounge updated, with an old spiral staircase replaced with a modern open staircase. Work was carried out to a very high standard and to schedule, with any follow up remedial work quickly resolved by Liam, the Owner. We were extremely happy with the end result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend LMB.

Frequently Asked Questions - Plumbing & HVAC

What size air conditioning do I need?

AC sizing depends on multiple factors: room size, ceiling height, sun exposure, insulation, and usage. As a general guide:

  • Small bedroom (10-15m²): 2.5kW unit
  • Large bedroom/medium living (15-25m²): 3.5kW unit
  • Large living room (25-40m²): 5.0-6.0kW unit
  • Open plan areas (40m²+): 7.0kW+ or multiple units

We perform proper heat load calculations to ensure correct sizing. Oversized units cycle frequently (inefficient), while undersized units struggle in peak heat. Professional sizing ensures optimal performance and efficiency.

Yes! Modern air conditioning units are heat pumps that provide both cooling and heating. In fact, heat pump heating is highly efficient for La Manga Club’s mild winters:

Heating Benefits:

  • 3-4 times more efficient than electric radiators
  • Quick room heating
  • Individual room control
  • No installation of a separate heating system
  • Lower running costs than traditional heating

Efficiency: Heat pumps produce 3-4kW of heat for every 1kW of electricity used, making them extremely cost-effective for heating during cooler months (November-March).

Most clients use AC for both summer cooling and winter heating, eliminating the need for separate heating systems.

Recommended Servicing: Annually before the summer season (April-May)

Annual Service Includes:

  • Filter cleaning or replacement
  • Indoor unit cleaning
  • Outdoor unit inspection and cleaning
  • Refrigerant level check
  • Electrical connection inspection
  • Condensate drain clearing
  • Performance testing
  • System optimization

Benefits of Regular Service: ✓ Maintains efficiency (saves 15-25% on running costs)
✓ Extends equipment lifespan (10-15 years vs. 6-8 without service)
✓ Prevents breakdowns during peak summer
✓ Maintains warranty validity
✓ Better air quality (clean filters)
✓ Early problem detection

Service Cost: €60-€100 per unit annually, excellent value for peace of mind and efficiency.

Yes, we provide emergency plumbing services for urgent situations:

Emergency Situations:

  • Burst pipes
  • Major leaks
  • Complete water loss
  • Severe blockages
  • Water heater failures
  • Flooding issues

Emergency Response:

  • Available 7 days a week
  • 2-4 hour response for existing clients
  • Same-day service for most emergencies
  • Professional diagnosis
  • Immediate temporary solutions
  • Permanent repairs arranged

Emergency Pricing:

Call: +34 616 34 54 93 for emergency service

For non-emergency repairs, regular appointments are available within 48-72 hours at standard rates.

Several factors can cause low water pressure in La Manga Club properties:

Common Causes:

  • Partially closed main valve
  • Clogged aerators on taps
  • Leaking pipes (water escaping before reaching taps)
  • Corroded old pipes (galvanised pipe deterioration)
  • Pressure-reducing valve set too low
  • Municipal supply issues
  • Scale buildup in pipes

Solutions:

  1. Check main valve (ensure fully open)
  2. Clean aerators on affected taps
  3. Inspect for visible leaks
  4. Test pressure at different locations
  5. Consider a pressure booster pump
  6. Replace old corroded pipes
  7. Adjust or replace the pressure-reducing valve

We diagnose pressure issues thoroughly and recommend cost-effective solutions. Often, cleaning aerators and adjusting valves resolves the issue. For systemic problems, re-piping or booster pumps may be needed.

How long does AC installation take?

Single Split Unit: 4-6 hours (same day installation)

Multi-Split System (5 units): 2-3 days

  • Day 1: Outdoor unit installation, main pipework
  • Day 2: Indoor units installation, electrical connections
  • Day 3: Commissioning, testing, demonstration

Timeline Factors:

  • Number of units
  • Pipe run distances
  • Concealment requirements (hiding pipes in walls)
  • Electrical work needed
  • Property access

Process:

  1. Equipment delivered to the site
  2. Outdoor unit positioned and secured
  3. Indoor units mounted
  4. Refrigerant pipework installed
  5. Electrical connections completed
  6. Vacuum test and refrigerant charging
  7. System testing and commissioning
  8. User demonstration

Most villa installations (5-6 units) are completed in 2-3 working days with minimal disruption.

For La Manga Club’s mild Mediterranean climate, the most energy-efficient heating options are:

1. Heat Pump Air Conditioning (Most Popular)

  • Cooling in summer, heating in winter
  • 300-400% efficiency (3-4kW heat per 1kW electricity)
  • Individual room control
  • Quick response
  • Investment: €4,500-€8,000 for whole villa

2. Underfloor Heating with Heat Pump

  • Even heat distribution
  • Very comfortable
  • Excellent efficiency
  • Can be combined with a cooling system
  • Investment: €10,000-€20,000

3. Gas Central Heating (Traditional)

  • Lower running costs than electric
  • Whole-house solution
  • Reliable performance
  • Requires a gas supply
  • Investment: €8,000-€15,000

Least Efficient: Electric radiators or fan heaters

Recommendation: Heat pump air conditioning provides excellent efficiency for both heating and cooling, making it ideal for La Manga’s climate, where both are needed.

La Manga Club water is moderately hard (150-250 mg/L calcium carbonate), which can cause:

Hard Water Issues:

  • Scale buildup in pipes and appliances
  • Reduced water heater efficiency
  • Limescale on taps and showerheads
  • Increased soap and detergent usage
  • Spotting on glassware

Water Softener Benefits:

✓ Prevents scale buildup
✓ Extends appliance lifespan
✓ Reduces energy costs (more efficient heating)
✓ Softer feeling water
✓ Less cleaning required
✓ Better for skin and hair

Alternatives:

  • Descaling filters (lower cost, less effective)
  • Magnetic/electronic conditioners (varying effectiveness)
  • Regular descaling maintenance

Investment: €800-€2,000 for a whole-house water softener installed

Water softeners are beneficial but not essential. Many clients install them when doing major plumbing upgrades or experiencing scale problems.

Electric Water Heater Lifespan:

  • Average: 8-12 years
  • With proper maintenance: 12-15 years
  • Without maintenance: 6-8 years

Gas Instantaneous Heater Lifespan:

  • Average: 10-15 years
  • With servicing: 15-20 years

Factors Affecting Lifespan:

  • Water quality (hard water reduces lifespan)
  • Usage frequency
  • Regular maintenance
  • Quality of installation
  • Equipment quality

Maintenance for Longevity:

  • Annual flushing to remove sediment
  • Anode rod inspection/replacement (every 3-5 years)
  • Temperature and pressure relief valve testing
  • Scale treatment in hard water areas

Signs Replacement Needed:

  • Age over 10-12 years
  • Rusty or discoloured water
  • Strange noises (rumbling, banging)
  • Leaking around the base
  • Insufficient hot water
  • Rising energy bills

We recommend budgeting for water heater replacement every 10-12 years as part of property maintenance planning.

Workmanship Warranty: 12 months on all labour and installation

Equipment Warranties (Manufacturer):

  • Air conditioning: 3-5 years parts, 5-7 years compressor
  • Boilers: 2-5 years, depending on brand
  • Water heaters: 2-3 years
  • Pumps and controls: 2-3 years

What’s Covered:

  • Installation defects
  • Refrigerant leaks from our work
  • Plumbing leaks from installations
  • Electrical connection issues
  • System performance problems from installation

Not Covered:

  • Lack of maintenance (filters, servicing)
  • Damage from power surges
  • Misuse or tampering
  • Normal wear and tear

Warranty Activation: We register all equipment warranties with manufacturers and provide you with documentation. Keep your installation certificates for warranty claims.
