Understanding High Temperature Heat Pumps

With the focus towards eco-friendly technology, R290 heat pumps are increasingly the choice UK industries seeking efficient and green heating systems.

Understanding R290 in Heat Pumps

R290, also referred to as natural propane, is a natural refrigerant widely chosen for its low global warming potential (GWP).

How Does GWP Impact R290 Heat Pumps?

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 eco-friendly options available, ideal for UK industries focused on minimising emissions.

How Do R290 Heat Pumps Operate?

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

Advantages of R290 Heat Pumps in the UK

• Lowered Energy Consumption: R290 heat pumps are extremely energy-efficient, reducing operational costs for UK businesses.


• Low Carbon Footprint: With its low GWP, R290 aligns perfectly with sustainability goals set by the UK government.


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