Do you know the benefits of the natural refrigerant HydroCarbon?
Solid Energy's heat pumps are not only efficient, quiet, reliable and the first choice for district heating and industry. They are also based on the natural, non-toxic propellant HydroCarbon.
Seven benefits of HydroCarbon:
1. High energy efficiency — provides better heat generation in relation to electricity consumption and reduces both CO₂ and costs.
2. Harmless by spillage — low environmental risk and minimal climate burden.
3. No ozone depletion — natural refrigerant with ODP = 0.
4. High temperatures at low pressure — possible to deliver up to 165 °C without straining the system.
5. Simple and robust construction — fewer components, longer life.
6. Effective in small and medium-sized systems — particularly suitable for modular solutions.
7. Lower price — HydroCarbon is cheaper than many synthetic refrigerants.
