Megawave: Eco-Friendly Heating Installation with R290 Heat Pump Solutions
The Science Behind R290 Refrigerant
R290 is more than a buzzword. It’s a natural hydrocarbon that ticks all the eco-friendly boxes:
- Zero Ozone Depletion: Unlike some traditional refrigerants, R290 won’t harm the ozone layer.
- Low GWP: Global warming potential is practically negligible.
- High Efficiency: Transfers heat rather than creates it, using up to 70% less electricity.
- Versatility: Works just as well for heating in winter as it does for cooling in summer.
Think of R290 like a bicycle—no petrol, barely any maintenance, and you still get from A to B. That’s the heart of an eco-friendly heating installation.
