Heating Performance:
La Manga Climate Suitability: Winter temperatures rarely fall below 5-10°C—perfect conditions for heat pump heating. Most clients use AC for both summer cooling and winter heating, eliminating the need for separate heating systems.
Cost Comparison: Heat pump heating costs 70-80% less than electric radiators while providing faster, more comfortable heating.
Running costs depend on usage, system efficiency, and electricity rates.
Example Running Costs (Medium Bedroom, 3.5kW Unit):
Summer Cooling (June-September, 8 hours/day):
Winter Heating (November-March, 6 hours/day):
Full Villa (5 Units) Annual Costs:
Electricity Rate: Based on €0.15-€0.20 per kWh (typical Spanish residential rates)
Cost Reduction Tips:
✓ Set temperature 24-25°C cooling, 20-21°C heating
✓ Use timer functions
✓ Close doors/windows
✓ Use ceiling fans to circulate air
✓ Regular filter cleaning
✓ Annual professional servicing
