As the world focuses more on carbon reduction and environmental protection, Europe is imposing stricter regulations on refrigerants used in residential and commercial heat pumps. Among the options, R290 (propane) is emerging as the preferred choice for the industry.
Starting in 2025, many high-GWP refrigerants will be gradually phased out. With a GWP of just 3, R290 is almost negligible compared to traditional refrigerants, making it the natural replacement that fully complies with European regulations.
For anyone exploring green energy solutions and low-carbon heating, Lailey & Coates R290 heat pumps are worthy of serious consideration.
