Aerothermal heating has become the most efficient and planet-friendly technology (and the most economical) that we can use to acclimatise any home. For this reason, many people wonder whether it is possible to install aerothermal energy in a flat or whether it is a possibility reserved for single-family homes.
The first thing you should know is that it is perfectly possible to install aerothermal energy in a flat, although it is necessary for the space to meet certain requirements, both exterior and interior.
There are different types of fan heaters.
How does fan heating work in a flat?
Aerothermal heating in a flat works like in any other type of building: you will need an outdoor installation, responsible for extracting the air needed to acclimatise your home, and an indoor installation, which will be responsible for transforming the temperature and distributing it.
All aerothermal systems have in common the use of energy from the outside air to generate cold or heat indoors: it is an efficient and sustainable system, an alternative to fossil fuels.
Types of aerothermal installation for a flat:
Aerothermal with radiators
Aerothermal with underfloor heating
Aerothermal with fan coils
How much does an aerothermal system for a flat cost?
The price of the aerothermal system in a flat depends on different factors:
Dimensions of the flat
Type of system chosen
Brand, model, installation company
Location, complexity of the installation
How much does it cost to install aerothermal energy in a 100m2 flat?
There is no single price for the installation of an aerothermal system, as there are many factors that influence the final budget. However, we can say that, for a 100 m² flat, we will normally move in a range of between 9,000 and 12,000 euros depending on the option chosen:
Aerothermal with radiators: This is the most economical option, and for a house of 100 m², the budget can be around 8,000 – 10,000 euros provided that we have a previous installation. Otherwise, the installation will cost around 1,000 euros on average.
Aerothermics with underfloor heating: In this case we will spend between 12,000 and 15,000 euros for a flat of 100 m².
Aerothermal with fan coils: In this case, we will move, in this case, between 10,000 and 12,000 euros for a flat of 100 m².
In any case, it is important to consult a professional to have a clear idea of the final price of each option for your home.
Although it is necessary to study each specific case, it is generally said that aerothermal energy is always profitable, especially in the medium and long term, as it represents a significant energy saving. Although its installation requires a significant initial investment, in the long run it is a system that saves a lot of money and is also environmentally friendly.
