What we do

We are a small, family-run heating company based in Turin, now in its third generation. We work on gas boilers, water heaters and air conditioners in homes, flats, small offices and shops, and we come to you: heating, hot water and cooling, what is usually called HVAC. We also do general plumbing.

Gas boilers: heating repair and maintenance

  • Heating repair: no heating, no hot water, error codes, pressure dropping, water leaks, noises, boiler that keeps switching off. We arrive with the most common spare parts on board.
  • Annual service (heating maintenance) with flue-gas analysis: the periodic check required in Italy, with the efficiency report (rapporto di controllo di efficienza energetica) and the regional sticker (bollino) registered on the Piedmont register (CIT). We handle the paperwork.
  • Replacement and new installation: condensing boilers of all major brands, with a free survey and a written quote before any work starts, plus the certificate of conformity (D.M. 37/2008) required in Italy.

Water heaters

  • Hot water heater repair and service: gas and electric water heaters (scaldabagno, boiler elettrico), descaling, replacement, and conversion from an old open-flue gas unit to a safe sealed one.

Air conditioning

  • Cleaning and sanitising of split units, condensate drain problems (water dripping from the indoor unit), refrigerant check and leak search, repairs, and installation of new single or multi-split systems. We hold the F-GAS certification required by law to work on the refrigerant circuit.

Plumbing

  • Need a plumber? We fix leaks, dripping taps and mixers, toilets and cisterns that leak or keep running, slow or smelly sink and shower drains, stuck shut-off valves and water pressure problems, and we replace washbasins, toilets and bidets. To save water and energy we also install water sub-meters (for a flat, a garage or a garden, after the SMAT main meter), water softeners and anti-scale filters that protect your boiler and water heater. We also install and service under-sink drinking-water purifiers (microfiltration and reverse osmosis), including the regular filter changes. We are licensed for plumbing systems too (D.M. 37/2008, letter D).

How it works

  1. 1
    Message us on WhatsApp

    Write in English: the brand of your boiler or unit, what is happening (a photo of the display or the error code helps), and your address. WhatsApp is the fastest way to reach us; on the phone we speak Italian.

  2. 2
    We reply with a time slot

    Usually within office hours the same day, with an idea of the cost. Breakdowns with no heating or no hot water get priority.

  3. 3
    Visit and diagnosis

    We check the appliance, explain what is wrong in simple words and confirm the price before doing the work. If a repair is not worth it, we say so.

  4. 4
    Report and invoice

    You receive the service report and the invoice by WhatsApp or email. If you rent, we can send them to your landlord or agency in Italian.

Renting in Turin? A note for tenants and landlords

In Italy the annual boiler service is normally paid by the tenant, as ordinary maintenance, while repairs and replacement of the boiler are normally the landlord's responsibility (extraordinary maintenance). Your rental contract may say otherwise, so it is worth checking it first.

Either way, we can help: we can explain the problem to your landlord or letting agency in Italian, send them the quote and invoice them directly if they agree. Many landlords simply ask for a written estimate before saying yes, and we provide it free of charge.

Qualifications and brands

Emme Esse Idrogas is a licensed Italian heating contractor under D.M. 37/2008 (letters C, D and E: heating, plumbing and gas systems), the Italian equivalent of a registered gas fitter, listed on the national F-GAS register for refrigerant gases, with up-to-date training on renewable systems (FER). Every job is done to code and documented.

We work on all boiler brands, including Vaillant, Baxi, Ariston, Beretta, Immergas, Junkers/Bosch, Riello, Ferroli, Saunier Duval, Chaffoteaux, Viessmann, Sime, Fondital and others.

Our customers have left over 150 reviews on Google, with an average rating of 5.0: read them on our Google profile.

Prices

We tell you the price before we start, every time. For repairs, the cost depends on what we find: a cleaning or an adjustment costs less than replacing an electronic board or a heat exchanger, and we explain the options before touching anything. For a new boiler, water heater or air conditioner the survey and the written quote are free and without obligation.

Frequently asked questions

Do you speak English?

We manage well in English on WhatsApp, using translation tools when needed, and we can read technical details, photos and error codes without any problem. On the phone it is easier for us in Italian, so for a first contact please write to us on WhatsApp.

How quickly can you come?

Usually within a few days; if you have no heating in winter or no hot water we give you priority. We work Monday to Friday, 8:30 to 17:30. You can message us at any time and we reply when we reopen.

My boiler shows an error code. What should I do?

Check that the pressure gauge reads between 1 and 1.5 bar and try one reset from the control panel. If the error comes back, do not keep resetting: send us the code and the brand on WhatsApp, it often tells us the fault already.

I can smell gas. What should I do?

Close the gas valve, open the windows, do not switch any electrical device on or off, leave the flat and call the gas distributor's emergency number, which is printed on your gas bill (for Italgas Reti, which serves Turin and most of the area: 800 900 999, free, 24 hours). Then call us for the repair.

Is the annual boiler service mandatory in Italy?

Yes. Gas boilers must be serviced periodically and their combustion efficiency checked, with a report filed on the regional register (CIT Piemonte) and a sticker applied to the boiler. We do the service, the flue-gas analysis and all the paperwork in one visit.

Do you install air conditioners?

Yes, single and multi-split systems, with the F-GAS certification required by law. Spring is the best time to book an installation or a service before summer.

Are you also a plumber?

Yes. We repair leaks, dripping taps, toilets and cisterns, blocked sink or shower drains and stuck shut-off valves, and we install water sub-meters, water softeners, anti-scale filters and under-sink drinking-water purifiers (we also do the filter changes on existing ones). If several drains in the building are blocked at once, the problem is usually in the shared drain stack or the sewer, which needs a drain-cleaning company: we tell you straight away. If water is leaking in the street or before your water meter, call SMAT, the Turin water company, on 800 060 060 (free, 24 hours).

Can you invoice my landlord or my company?

Yes. We issue a regular invoice to you, to your landlord or to a company, as you prefer. Just give us the details.
