What is a High Temperature Heat Pump?

With the focus towards sustainable technology, R290 heat pumps have become the choice UK industries seeking efficient and environmentally-friendly heating systems.

Understanding R290 in Heat Pumps

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

The Role of GWP in R290 Heat Pumps

Global Warming Potential (GWP) measures 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 absorbing and moving heat energy from the outside to the inside, similar to standard heat pumps but with enhanced efficiency due to the properties of R290.

Advantages of R290 Heat Pumps in the UK

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


• Minimal Environmental Impact: With its low GWP, R290 aligns well with environmental goals set by the UK government.


• Versatile: These pumps perform well in both low and high-temperature settings.
