Heating Guide - Casitas Arcenoyu
🌿 Part of your Asturias Vacations guest experience
Your traditional Asturian casita has individual heating controls that work brilliantly once you know the system. Here's how to stay cozy during your stay. If it is summer and you would like the heating on just let us know - we have a central control switch we keep off during summer.
How Your Heating Works
The Simple Version: You have a main thermostat plus individual radiators in each room. Think of it like a base temperature setting (the thermostat) plus room-by-room fine-tuning (the radiators).
Recommended Setup:
First open the radiators
Turn your main thermostat until it engages and leave it there
Use the individual radiators to adjust each room by opening the nozzle
Stone buildings take a bit longer to warm up but hold heat beautifully
Quick Troubleshooting
Still Cold After an Hour?
Turn the main thermosat up - double check with us it is turned on
Open the individual radiators fully
Give it time - stone buildings are slow to heat but stay warm longer
Too Hot?
Turn individual radiators down first
Turn the thermostat down
Open a window briefly for fresh air, then close it again
Energy Tips
Stone buildings are naturally efficient once warmed up. Heat the rooms you're using and close doors to unused spaces. The building will hold the warmth well.
