Introduction to Megawave R290
Looking to cut your carbon footprint without the hassle? The Megawave R290 makes air source heat pump installation a breeze. No more wrestling with heavy kit or wondering how it fits. It’s designed to drop into place, quietly hum, and heat your home with near-zero emissions.
We’re in the renewable energy era. Traditional boilers are on their way out. Smart, eco-friendly solutions are moving in. And the R290 is here to lead that charge.
Why Choose an R290 System?
Let’s dive into why the R290 refrigerant is a star.
- Zero-carbon refrigerant: R290 (aka propane) has a GWP of just 3.
- Top-notch efficiency: SCOP ratings up to 5.02.
- Whisper-quiet operation: Certified by Quiet Mark.
- Stylish design: Powder-coated black finish that blends with your home.
When you opt for air source heat pump installation with Megawave, you get more than kit. You get peace of mind. Our expert installation and maintenance services mean your system runs smoothly, year after year.
Built for Simplicity
Ever stared at a manual and thought, “This is rocket science”? We’ve been there. That’s why our installation crew uses a step-by-step plan:
- Site survey and consultation.
- Mount bracket, plumb water connections.
- Commission the system with Aerona Smart Controller.
- Show you the basics in under 30 minutes.
No fuss. No mess. Just a working heat pump.
Zero-Carbon Performance
What’s next after installation? Performance. The R290 draws low-temperature heat from outside air and spins it into cosy warmth. Even at –15°C, it keeps kicking out heat. You’ll find it’s perfect for:
- Underfloor heating.
- Radiator upgrades.
- Integrated cylinders.
Stop burning fossil fuel. Start harnessing climate-friendly tech.
The Numbers Speak
- COP up to 5.02 at 35°C flow.
- Annual efficiency (SCOP) up to 5.02.
- Emissions cut by up to 65% compared to gas boilers.
Those are real gains. And your meter will love it.
Government Incentives and Grants
Worried about upfront costs? The UK government offers schemes like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. You could get up to £7,500 back on your air source heat pump installation. Combine that with our flexible finance options, and you’re looking at affordable monthly payments.
- Easy grant application guidance.
- No hidden fees.
- Access to local funding pots.
Expert Maintenance & Support
Installation is just the start. Regular servicing keeps performance high and surprises low. Our packages include:
- Annual health checks.
- Filter swaps and refrigerant top-ups.
- Remote monitoring via the Aerona Smart Controller.
- Priority response on call-outs.
You’ll sleep easier knowing experts are just a call away.
Cost Savings and ROI
Let’s talk numbers. Suppose you switch from a gas boiler at 85% efficiency to an R290 heat pump at SCOP 5:
- Energy bills can drop by 50–60%.
- Payback periods often fall below 7 years.
- System lifespan surpasses 20 years with proper care.
That’s serious savings over the long haul. And you get stable bills, even if gas prices spike.
