Clade Engineering explores CO₂ (R744) heat pumps — one of the most advanced heating technologies for commercial and industrial buildings. Learn how they work, why they deliver such high temperatures, and where they’re most useful. We also explain how R744 compares to other refrigerants like R290 and synthetics.
✅ Up to 90°C hot water output
✅ Extremely low GWP (Global Warming Potential = 1)
✅ Ideal for hot water-dominant applications and cold climates
