Cutrico

Malta's summers are long and hot, and a good number of homes, offices and boats on the islands depend on equipment that keeps the air comfortable all year. Cutrico Ltd is one of the longer established names in that trade. It supplies, installs and maintains heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment for customers in Malta and Gozo, and it has been doing so since 1984. If you are weighing up cooling for a flat you have bought, a house you are renovating or a business unit, it is a sensible company to put on your shortlist, and you can start by sending a message through the VisitMalta.co.uk form on this page.

The business sits on the Mriehel by-pass, one of the main commercial roads in central Malta, which makes it easy to reach by car from Valletta, Sliema and the airport side of the island. If you are still working out what life on the islands is like through the year, our Malta weather guide shows how hot the summer months become and why cooling matters.

Who Cutrico is and where it works

Cutrico Ltd was founded in 1984 and its work is the supply, installation and maintenance of air conditioning, heating and ventilation equipment. That span of work covers domestic customers, commercial premises and industrial buildings, and the business serves both Malta and Gozo. Customers can pick from a long list of localities when they register on its online shop, which includes towns in the north, south and centre of Malta as well as villages across Gozo, so you do not need to be near Mriehel to use it.

For anyone moving to the islands, a supplier with this sort of track record is useful to know. Fitting cooling or heating in a rented or newly bought property is one of the first practical jobs for new arrivals, and our guide to relocating to Malta covers the other steps that tend to come with it. Remote workers setting up a home office will also find our digital nomad guide for Malta helpful when planning a comfortable workspace.

Air conditioning, heating and ventilation

Air conditioning is the core of the range. The shop lists domestic units alongside larger commercial systems, with wall mounted indoor units, four-way ceiling cassettes and other formats. Brands named on the site include Toshiba, with a digital inverter four-way cassette, and Burley, with a wall mounted model. Its Advanced Omnia Eco series of domestic air conditioners is A+++ rated, uses R32 refrigerant, has an ionizer and is ready for Wi-Fi control. An Aria series in 9,000, 12,000 and 18,000 BTU sizes is listed as in stock, and other items are marked as available on request.

Heating is a smaller but real part of the offer. Cutrico supplies radiators and underfloor heating, including the Devimat range of smart underfloor systems, for homes that need warmth during the cooler months. Ventilation and air purification sit alongside these in the shop menu, with a separate section for HVAC accessories. If you want to see everything that is available in Malta in this line, our directory page for air conditioning companies in Malta lists other suppliers and installers you can compare.

Marine department and servicing

Cutrico Marine is a dedicated department set up to look after the boating sector. It supplies, repairs and maintains comfort equipment for luxury yachts, day cruisers and commercial vessels, and the shop also stocks marine cleaning products such as a pre-mixed growth remover for engine cooling systems from Trac Marine. Boat owners who are speaking to a broker such as 73 Marine, a yacht broker nearby may want to ask about onboard cooling and comfort at the same time. Operators of excursion vessels, for example Adventure Cruises Malta, face similar needs on the water.

Servicing matters as much as the first installation. Cutrico points out that air conditioning equipment needs regular maintenance to protect the investment and keep it working well, and it offers a maintenance service for that purpose. You can describe the equipment you already have, or the system you are planning, in your message through the enquiry form.

Visiting, ordering and getting started

The shop on the Mriehel by-pass is open six days a week, with a shorter day on Saturday and no opening on Sunday. Cutrico also runs an online shop with a cart, a customer login and delivery across the islands, and delivery is free when an order is over €100. Sizing a system is the part that most customers find confusing, so it is worth giving the room size, the type of building and whether you want cooling only or cooling and heating when you write.

Visitors to Malta who are staying in self-catering accommodation do not usually need to deal with this, but owners and landlords do. If you are planning a longer stay, our Malta holidays overview and about Malta page give useful background, and our Gozo guide is worth reading if your property is on the sister island, which Cutrico also serves. When you are ready, use the VisitMalta.co.uk enquiry form on this page and we will pass your message to the business.
