Understanding High Temperature Heat Pumps

In the move towards sustainable heating solutions, R290 heat pumps are emerging as an ideal choice for UK industries looking to minimise their environmental footprint.

Understanding R290 in Heat Pumps

R290, also referred to as natural propane, is a natural refrigerant widely chosen for its low GWP rating.

Why GWP Matters in Choosing R290

Global Warming Potential (GWP) is a measure the impact of greenhouse gases on the atmosphere. With a very low GWP rating, R290 is one of the most sustainable options available, ideal for UK industries focused on minimising emissions.

How Do R290 Heat Pumps Operate?

R290 heat pumps work by capturing and transferring heat energy from the outside to the inside, just like traditional heat pumps but with enhanced efficiency due to the properties of R290.

Why Choose R290 Heat Pumps?

• Reduced Energy Costs: R290 heat pumps are extremely energy-efficient, cutting operational costs for UK businesses.


• Minimal Environmental Impact: With its minimal GWP, R290 aligns well with environmental goals set by UK regulators.


• Reliable in Different Conditions: These pumps perform well in both low and high-temperature settings.
