The Next Frontier
R290 is a natural refrigerant that delivers exceptional performance with a very low Global Warming Potential (GWP). It offers a clean and efficient alternative to fossil fuel-based heating systems and traditional refrigerants. It is widely recognised as one of the most effective and future-friendly options for residential and commercial heating applications.
R290 is suitable for both new homes and retrofit installations and provides a reliable, warm, and efficient way to heat living spaces and domestic hot water. Even in extremely cold climates, R290 performs efficiently at very low temperatures, making it ideal year-round.
R290 propane refrigerant has an ultra-low Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 3, compared to traditional refrigerants.
By comparison, R32 has a GWP rating of 675.
This makes R290 a significantly cleaner and more sustainable choice.
The advantage justifies R290 as an effective step toward reducing carbon emissions while still maintaining strong heating performance.
R290 is widely used in refrigeration and commercial scale heating applications and has a long history of safe performance. Domestic systems typically contain around one kilogram of propane which is less than twelve percent of the volume found in a standard barbecue cylinder.
When correctly installed and located, it represents a very low risk level that is comparable to other flammable gas appliances commonly used in households.
R290 supports the shift away from high emission heating systems by providing a clean and efficient heating solution that aligns with long term sustainability goals. It is suitable for homeowners who want to reduce environmental impact without sacrificing performance or comfort.
