Return on investment: how quickly is it recovered in Alt Empordà?
For an inland farmhouse like Peralada, Navata or Vilabertran, which previously heated with oil, the return on investment is usually 5 to 8 years. For coastal homes like Roses or Empuriabrava, where heating consumption is lower, it can be 7-10 years.
The annual saving for a 150 m² home switching from oil to aerothermal is usually between €1,200 and €2,000/year.
Real cases in the area
Over 20 years of installations in Alt Empordà, we have installed aerothermal in old farmhouses in Peralada (where tramontane cold makes a good system essential), in Empuriabrava marina villas (where efficiency is especially high due to the temperate coastal climate), and in Figueres apartments where neighbours in a building have agreed on a joint installation.
Frequently asked questions
Does aerothermal work in winter in the inland Alt Empordà?
Yes. Modern heat pumps operate efficiently down to -15°C. In Peralada or Navata, where winters can be cold and the tramontane significantly lowers temperatures, aerothermal with underfloor heating is the ideal combination.
How long does the installation take?
A standard installation in a detached house usually takes 3 to 5 days. Large farmhouses or those requiring new underfloor heating may need 2-3 weeks.
Can I install aerothermal in a flat?
Yes, but it requires the approval of the residents' association if the outdoor unit goes on the façade. In Figueres or in Empuriabrava blocks we have done it many times with good results.
