Set up gas and heating in Ibiza Town (Eivissa)
Homes in Ibiza Town (Eivissa) may use piped natural gas where a distributor serves the street, bottled butane at a regulated maximum price, or electric heating; each natural-gas area has one regulated distributor, supply is bought from a separate retailer, and installations are inspected every five years.
- Why it matters
- Hot water, cooking and heating often depend on gas, and the contract, inspection and cylinder rules differ from electricity. Knowing who does what avoids safety problems and cut-offs.
- When
- You move into a home with a gas boiler or hob, or are told it uses butane bottles.

Natural gas installations need an inspection every five years, within the calendar year the period ends. The owner is responsible, or the user (for example a tenant) if there is no owner.
