A cored opening through a thick rubble wall carrying insulated lines to a condenser standing beside it

Air Conditioning in Binissalem

The stone here is generous. Manor houses and old bodega buildings were built with walls far deeper than anything a modern installation manual imagines, and every one of them stands between an indoor unit and the outdoor unit it has to reach. Tell us how thick the walls are and we pass the request on.

Getting through the wall is a job, not a detail

A core through half a metre or more of rubble-filled stone is slow, dusty and occasionally full of surprises, because these walls are not homogeneous. Two skins with loose fill between them behave differently from solid stone, and neither behaves like block. A company that has done it before allows for the time; one that has not treats it as a hole and is wrong by a day.

It is also why the number of penetrations is worth minimising. Grouping rooms so that one route serves several, or bringing pipework in through an existing opening, a former chimney or a service void, saves far more here than it would in a lighter building.

The compensation is that these buildings are comfortable. All that mass means a low cooling load and a house that rides through most of the summer, so the systems are usually modest even where the installation work is not.

What to establish in a heavy stone building

  • How thick the walls actually are where a route would go
  • Whether they are solid or two skins with fill between
  • Whether an existing opening, void or flue can be reused
  • How many penetrations the design really needs
  • Where the dust from coring will go, and what is under it
  • Whether the cooling load is as small as the mass suggests

Usually asked for here

Split and multi-split

Grouped so that one route through the wall serves more than one room.

Underfloor heating

A heavy building is cold in January, and a floor is the answer these houses take well.

Is it difficult to install in a building like this?

The equipment is ordinary; getting it connected is not. Coring through very thick stone takes time and produces a great deal of dust, and a quote that has allowed for it will look different from one that has not. It is a fair question to ask directly.

Do these houses need much cooling?

Less than their size suggests. The mass keeps them tolerable through most of the summer, and the load is usually concentrated in whichever rooms have been opened up or glazed. Winter is generally the larger question in a building this heavy.
