Adequate air conditioning in a restaurant is essential to create a comfortable and welcoming environment that attracts and retains customers. In a region like Malaga which has such an intense climate in the summer months, whether in inland towns like Alhaurín or Coín, as well as on the Costa del Sol, air conditioning systems must be efficient.
As authorised installers with a long professional track record, at Instalaciones Carabantes we are here to offer you customised solutions that adapt to your specific needs and comply with current regulations. This way you keep your customers and the local administration happy. We take care of everything, from the initial advice, the project, the execution and, if you wish, the maintenance to give a long life to your equipment.
The importance of good air conditioning in restaurants
One of the key issues that restaurant owners need to consider is how climate control affects the customer experience. An environment that is too hot or too cold may make customers feel uncomfortable and leave early, or even decide not to return.
Sometimes we are so focused on customer service and getting dishes out of the kitchen that we overlook part of the customer experience. Many people are bothered by draughts, or a stuffy environment. Be aware that proper ventilation and air conditioning also play a crucial role in the health and safety of both customers and staff.
Common concerns of hoteliers
Restaurant owners often face several concerns when it comes to air conditioning their premises:
- Energy consumption: Maintaining a comfortable environment can be costly. Modern air conditioning systems are designed to be energy efficient, which helps to reduce long-term operating costs.
- Current regulations: Compliance with local and national regulations is crucial. This not only avoids possible sanctions, but also ensures the safety and comfort of everyone on the premises.
- Noise: Noisy air conditioning systems can disrupt the customer experience or disturb neighbours. It is important to select equipment that operates quietly without compromising efficiency.
- Aesthetics and space: Ideally, air-conditioning equipment should be properly integrated into the design of the restaurant without taking up too much space or affecting the aesthetics of the place.
Customised solutions for every need
At Instalaciones Carabantes, we understand that each restaurant requires a customised air conditioning solution. Whether for its architecture, layout or location. A beachside restaurant is not the same as a roadside restaurant, a restaurant in Fuengirola or in Alhaurín el Grande.
That’s why our advisory process begins with a detailed assessment of your needs and available space. Some of the systems we offer include:
- Ducted air conditioning: Ideal for premises with pre-installation of ductwork or where the greatest discretion is desired. It allows for uniform air distribution, ensuring optimum comfort in all areas of the restaurant.
- Wall split and multisplit: Perfect for restaurants without pre-installation of ducts and more limited budgets. Wall split systems are suitable for specific spaces, while multisplit systems can air-condition several areas with a single outdoor unit and multiple indoor units.
- Ceiling cassette: These systems are popular in shops and restaurants because of their ceiling installation and their ability to distribute air efficiently. They are able to control the temperature in large rooms in a short time and the new designs are very elegant.
Compliance with current regulations
Another essential aspect for any hospitality business is to comply with current regulations. At Instalaciones Carabantes, we are up to date with the latest regulations and technical requirements. This allows us to ensure that each installation is not only efficient but also legally compliant. This includes aspects such as indoor air quality, adequate ventilation and permissible noise levels.
If your restaurant already has an air conditioning system but it does not meet your expectations or the current regulations, we can help you to renew it. From upgrading specific components to a complete system overhaul, we ensure that your installation is up to your needs and meets modern standards.
Maintenance and repair
One of the great advantages of working with established companies is that we take care of the maintenance and repair of all the equipment we install. It is one thing to hire an acquaintance to install a split system at home, and quite another to put your own business on the line. An incident at peak time or in the middle of the season can cause you to lose a lot of money in a matter of hours.
The key to maintaining an efficient and durable air conditioning system is regular maintenance. We offer maintenance and repair services to ensure that your equipment is running optimally at all times. This includes periodic cleaning, performance checks and necessary repairs to avoid unexpected failures.
