Hi well we've been living and loving living in Almoradi for nearly a year but recently as many have noticed a big hike in our electricity bill, we have been considering completing the natural gas installation our apartment has, has anyone or is anyone using a gas boiler, hob etc and could offer us some guidance, as in which gas provider to use, who to get a boiler off etc, we have spoken to a representative from a company called Redexis who are offering incentives to go with them but after reading woefull reviews we won't be taking them up on their offers.

I used 8 x35 kilo bottles for my central heating until I discovered that the charge for delivery, from Repsol was 20 euros each.   I have now had installed a tank, free of charge, only pay 200 euros installation, from Cepsa.   Brilliant service and good price for gas!   I recommend them!

Why mains gas for just water heater and maybe gas hob these will run quite happily off propane or butane bottles preferably propane if bottles outside which they should be,these things can be potentially dangerous if fitted wrong,preferably go for the modern version with a fan flue if you can find one here,I have a 180 litre storage hot tank running off 3 propane cylinders which last up to 8 weeks for water only 36 € 3 people and cooking.slightly inconvenient changing bottles but simple enough

Hi sorry for delayed responce I didn't get notification, mains gas as we have it piped ready it was installed when the apartment was built so seems daft not to use it.
