Sustainable heating & cooling
Our award-winning heat pumps optimises the entire building’s heating and cooling solution in order to reduce emissions and drastically lower the carbon footprint. This is especially critical for retail spaces where maintaining comfortable climate control is essential, while simultaneously adhering to stringent sustainability standards.
Units such as OMICRON Zero from Swegon, take this commitment further by utilising R290 (propane), a highly sustainable refrigerant choice. With a low Global Warming Potential (GWP), R290 minimises environmental impact while delivering superior efficiency. By integrating R290 into our heat pumps and designing holistic solutions, Swegon ensures that the building not only achieves net zero emissions, but also supports a greener future.
The environmental and economic benefits of decarbonising buildings can be substantial. Much depends on the existing indoor climate solution, the energy supply mix and the energy price. It is not unrealistic to expect a 60% decarbonisation if going from a natural gas boiler to a well-optimised heat pump solution.
Additionally, by reducing dependency on natural gas and other volatile energy sources, not only will environmental benefits be achieved but also a more stable financial return.
Swegon offers tools and expertise to help calculate the potential carbon savings, providing a clear picture of how sustainable heating can benefit both the bottom line and the environmental footprint.
