The climate for heat pumps in Alcúdia
Alcúdia lies at about 17 m above sea level, in climate zone B3 of the Spanish Building Code (CTE). According to the 2014–2023 PVGIS series (European Commission), the coldest month is January, averaging 11.9 °C, and the municipality has about 322 heating degree days a year, similar to Palma. For comparison, Pollença has 408 and Sa Pobla 383.
In this climate, for a 120 m² home built between 1980 and 2006 we estimate a heating demand of about 5,855 kWh a year and about 7.3 kW of power, covered by a 8 kW Vaillant aroTHERM plus.
Compared with an oil boiler (about €1,591 a year for heating and hot water for 3 people), a heat pump with radiators would cost about €495: indicative savings of €1,096 a year. Underfloor heating or fan coils improve efficiency further.
Heat pump grants in Alcúdia
If the heat pump replaces an oil, propane or gas boiler, a Vaillant unit earns about €2,000 in Energy Saving Certificates (CAE). For a main home, Spanish taxpayers can also deduct 40% of the investment from income tax, up to €3,000. And the installation can be financed interest-free.

The Balearic Government’s FACTOR 2026 programme closed to applications on 17 October 2026 because its budget ran out. For reference, a 8 kW unit would have received up to €5,600 (€700 per kW of heating output). If you already applied, we help you with the final paperwork.

Heat pumps in Alcúdia: hotel hot water and seaside homes
In hotels and holiday apartments, domestic hot water is one of the biggest items on the bill, and a heat pump covers it for a fraction of what oil or propane costs. In seaside homes we choose equipment and mounts that cope with the humidity and salt of the bay.
