Air Conditioning Installation in Carcavelos
Anyone living in Carcavelos knows what the beach does indoors: fine sand everywhere and salt air coming through open windows. Air conditioning feels it before anything else — in the filters, in the coil and in the condensate tray, which clog far faster here than elsewhere.

About our service in Carcavelos
In a house near the beach, between the Lombos, Sassoeiros and the Junqueiro, airborne sand settles in the filters of the indoor unit and, with the moisture from condensation, forms a layer that clings to the coil. The unit starts to blow less, cools worse and in some cases begins to smell. So when we install, we choose models with easily accessible filters that the household can pull out and wash without tools, and we show how it is done on the day of handover. With the same reasoning we avoid putting the indoor unit directly above doors that open outwards, where it takes the full draught of particles. The outdoor unit needs a different kind of attention. Besides the salt that oxidises the fins, there is wind-blown sand that lodges between them and cuts heat transfer. We mount the machine off the ground wherever possible, never directly on a sandy surface, and clear of hedges or walls within half a metre. At service time the outdoor coil is washed with a fin comb and a proper product, not simply blown out, because compacted deposits do not come away with compressed air. Anyone whose house is on the front line gains from repeating the wash before and after the summer. Many homes in the area are rented, to families or to students from the nearby international schools. That raises a practical point before any work: the installation alters the façade and involves drilling, so it needs the landlord's written consent, and in a block it also has to go through the owners' association. We help with a technical description of what is to be done so that consent can be asked for clearly. In heavily used summer homes, where the equipment runs for many hours a day, we also recommend monthly filter cleaning through the season and a check of the drainage before the hottest period.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions about air conditioning in Carcavelos:
Can I have it installed in a rented home?
You can, with the landlord's written consent, because the installation involves drilling and alters the façade. In a block the owners' association also has to agree to the outdoor unit. We prepare a technical description of the work to go with the request.
What does the cost of the work depend on?
The output chosen, the number of rooms, the metres of pipework, the type of wall to be crossed, access to the outdoor unit position and any extra protection justified by how close the sea is. We look at photos on WhatsApp or carry out a site visit and send a no-obligation quote.
How often should I clean the filters?
Near the beach, more often than usual: once a month in the months of heavy use. They are filters you pull out by hand, wash with water and leave to dry. Cleaning the coil and the condensate tray is left to a service visit.
