Spain introduces new air conditioning law which could leave tourists sweltering
02.08.2022 - 15:13 / dailyrecord.co.uk
New air conditioning rules in Spain could leave tourists sizzling as the country grapples with heatwaves.
A new law has been passed which means Spanish shops, offices and hospitality venues will no longer be able to set their cooling systems below 27C in the summer.
It forms part of a set of energy saving measures which also bans people from raising their heating to above 19C in the winter, reports Birmingham Live.
With temperatures in Spain expected to rise to 42C during a sweltering heatwave, tourists might want to be aware of these rules before going abroad.
An orange alert has been raised in nine of Spain's provinces for "intense heat" which is expected to last through to the middle of the week.
The hottest temperatures are expected at the start of the week in the eastern region of Extremadura, which sits just above Seville.
Salamanca, Avila, Toledo, Seville, Cordoba, Jaen and Ourense also issued the weather warnings along with Caceres and Badajoz which form Extremadura.
Temperatures were not expected to dip below 39C in Extremadura on Monday. The mercury was expected to top 40C in Salamanca, Avila and Ourense, according to forecasting.
Andalusia, Madrid, the Basque Country and Aragon remained on a yellow warning, along with Catilla y Leon, Catalonia, Navarre and La Rioja.
Temperatures for much of the country are expecting to sit between 35C and 38C over the coming days and therefore fall under the yellow warning.
Spain's state weather service said that it was not dismissing the idea that the temperatures would reach heatwave status.
A spokesperson said: "It cannot be ruled out that it will end up being classified as a heatwave, especially in the south-west of the peninsula, although it will not be as extraordinary as
