Air Conditioning Installation in Cascais

In Cascais we work mainly in houses with gardens, from Birre to the Quinta da Marinha and Manique. There the installation stops being a question of building rules and becomes a question of the floor plan: how many rooms to cool, where the pipework runs and where to stand the outdoor unit so it cannot be heard from the bedroom.

About our service in Cascais

In a house, the first decision is nearly always between several independent units and a multi-split system. With two or three floors, a large living room and bedrooms spread around, the multi-split usually wins: a single outdoor unit, placed somewhere discreet in the garden or on a service elevation, feeds the indoor units and spares the rest of the house a row of machines. Against that, it calls for a serious study of the route beforehand, because the pipe runs cover far greater distances than in a flat and every metre counts in the final performance. We take the plan, measure the routes and say frankly when it is better to split the system into two groups. The position of the outdoor unit deserves time. Beside a pool or a dining terrace, the continuous sound of the fan spoils the use of the space; under a bedroom window, it is noticed at night. We look for a service elevation away from the living areas, mount on an anti-vibration base and aim the discharge out of the garden, never against a nearby hedge or wall, which throws the heat straight back at the machine. In houses closer to the Guincho and the coast road we also add protection for the outdoor coil, because salt-laden air attacks the fins and shortens the life of the equipment. A good share of the houses in the municipality are used seasonally, which brings its own set of precautions. Equipment standing idle for months gathers moisture and odours in the evaporator, and the drain can dry out or block with debris. Before the season of use we clean filters and coils, check pressures and test the condensate run, so the house is ready when the owners arrive. For houses that are let, we leave written operating instructions and arrange servicing visits outside the occupied periods. Where there is home automation or an alarm, we coordinate with whoever maintains the rest of the house.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions about air conditioning in Cascais:

In a house, is a multi-split better than several separate units?

It depends on the distance between rooms. If they are reasonably close together, a multi-split takes up only one position outside and keeps servicing simple. If the house is very spread out or the floors far apart, two independent systems perform better than one line stretched too far.

How do you prepare a quote for a whole house?

We count the rooms to be cooled, the output each one requires, the metres of pipework per unit, the route available, the outdoor position and any additional protection needed near the coast. We carry out a site visit and present a no-obligation proposal, broken down room by room.

Will the unit be heard from the bedroom or the pool?

It should not be. Noise is reduced by choosing the right elevation, keeping the unit away from sleeping and living areas, mounting it on anti-vibration supports and letting the air discharge freely. These choices are made before installing, because afterwards the only fix is moving the machine.
