Although summers in Torrevieja are hot, many homes still need efficient and sustainable heating solutions for the winter months. Among the most popular choices are pellet and wood-burning stoves, which provide warmth, comfort, and an aesthetic touch to your home. At AC Torrevieja, we explain the differences and which option might suit your property best.
Pellet stoves
Pellet stoves have become one of the most modern and sustainable alternatives:
- They run on recycled fuel (compressed wood pellets).
- Clean and highly automated, making them very easy to use.
- Many can be programmed and even controlled from your smartphone.
- Offer high thermal efficiency with low consumption.
- Require a flue installation and an electricity connection.
👉 Perfect for those looking for comfort, technology, and efficiency.
Wood-burning stoves
A more traditional option that still has a strong presence:
- Provide a rustic, traditional style, ideal for country houses.
- Do not require electricity, making them practical in off-grid locations.
- Low running costs, though less efficient than pellets.
- Deliver high heat output, although with less temperature control.
👉 Ideal if you want authenticity, simplicity, and natural warmth.
What about gas?
Gas stoves are still found in some homes, but they are increasingly falling out of use due to their higher cost and greater emissions.
At AC Torrevieja, we prefer recommending more sustainable systems such as pellet stoves or aerothermal heating, which, when combined with underfloor heating, offers maximum efficiency.

- 🏡 Flats or modern villas: pellet stove.
