Why Zero Carbon Heating Matters
The Carbon Challenge
Traditional gas boilers pump around 2 tonnes of CO2 per home annually. Yikes. Multiply that by millions of households, and you’ve got a serious climate headache. Zero carbon heating tackles this head-on:
– Reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
– Complies with future building regulations.
– Future-proofs your property value.
Rising Costs, Rising Pressure
Energy prices are roller-coastering. Governments everywhere are dangling sweet grants and rebates. In the UK, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers up to £5,000 per installation. That’s free money for your switch to zero carbon heating – as long as you pick the right kit and installer.
Meet the Competitor: TommaTech 24kW R290 Power Series
TommaTech is no slouch. Their 24kW R290 Power Series Heat Pump ticks many boxes:
Features and Specs
- Three-phase monoblock design for quick setup.
- A+++ energy efficiency under ideal conditions.
- Smart Grid (SG) communication for solar synergy.
- 5-inch control panel with intuitive UI.
- Heating, cooling and hot water in one unit.
Pros
- Proven brand in solar and heat pump integration.
- Seamless connection to solar arrays.
- Compact, single-unit footprint.
Cons
- After-sales support can be patchy in remote areas.
- Financing packages are limited.
- You’ll handle installation quotes and paperwork for grants yourself.
TommaTech nails the basics of zero carbon heating. But if you crave an end-to-end service—design, install, maintenance, grants—there’s a gap.

Design and Efficiency
Megawave’s R290 Eco Series matches TommaTech on raw specs: 24kW output, monoblock ease, A+++ ratings. But they pushed the envelope on noise reduction and defrost cycles. Quieter. Smoother.
