Now in its second year of business, Penguin specialises in air conditioning as well as energy-efficient solar and heat pump systems for homes and pools.
Covering the Algarve, their cartoon-logo yellow vans have been catching the eye and gaining a reputation for service.
Modern air conditioning heats efficiently as well as cools, and the latest systems also have air purifiers to reduce dust and odours, offering a healthier indoor environment.
Penguin was founded on its air-con expertise and offers a choice of brands across the price range.
Apart from new installations, the company offers a fast-response maintenance and repair service, which is important, especially during the summer heat.
Solar systems offer a cost-efficient means to heat domestic water or swimming pools, and are ideal in the Algarve‘s sunny climate. “We’re seeing a sharp rise in demand for solar systems due to a combination of factors, the tight economy, environmental awareness plus a wider appreciation of the systems themselves,” said director Chris Blackburn.
Alternatively, many homeowners are opting for energy-efficient heat pumps for domestic water and home heating, with under floor or radiator systems.
These work much like air-conditioning but switched in reverse, they extract low-grade heat from the outdoor ambient air and upgrade it to supply hot water and heating.
Operating at a significantly lower cost than a gas boiler, heat pump systems work effectively year-round, even in the coldest Algarve temperatures.
