The Best Engine for Heat Pumps:
The Blueheart
The BlueHeart engine enables heat pump manufacturers to expand the application of heat pumps in many existing buildings and lower the barriers associated with existing heat pump technologies.
The BlueHeart Engine is a breakthrough thermo-acoustic technology that redefines residential heating. This engine uses sound waves and helium to deliver silent heating and cooling—eliminating flammable gases or HFC refrigerants and their associated safety concerns.
The main reasons why the BlueHeart engine enables this are:
LOWER UPFRONT INVESTMENTS (CAPEX): It lowers upfront investments in building upgrades such as piping adjustments, radiator swaps and high level of insulation needs. Due to the unique application of soundwaves it ensures that insulation upgrades are possible after installing a heat pump.
BEST TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP: The engine provides the lowest cost of ownership due to comparable energy savings as a traditional medium temperature heat pump while lowering the upfront investment in building related upgrades of a heat pump.
HIGHEST COMFORT: The BlueHeart engine is silent and can provide high temperatures (up to 80C) ensuring the highest comfort when connected to existing radiator systems. Due to lower heat sizing issues, there are less installation concerns leading to lower customer complaints.
EASE OF REGULATORY COMPLIANCE: No flammable or toxic refrigerant ensures compliance with upcoming regulations.
SUSTAINABILITY: The BlueHeart engine is fully electric and has a GWP of 0 ensuring high sustainability.
Benefits of the BlueHeart

Cost for Value
The BlueHeart is the Best cost for value solution. With the lowest cost and investments needed for existing buildings, the BlueHeart makes heating accessible and affordable for everyone.
Most
Flexibility
BlueHeart powered heat pumps are the most flexible in planning, placement and usage due to the unique thermo-acoustic technology. It also provides the most flexibility with the lowest installment risk, and lowest noise complaints.
What This Means
For You
Installing a heat pump in an existing building is challenging as it often requires complicated and costly adjustments and renovations to your home. This includes renovations surrounding the radiator systems, or insulation. The BlueHeart engine enables an attractive business case for OEMs, installers, property owners and customers, by reducing the need to replace existing heating systems, reduces insulation needs while reducing heating and maintenance costs. BlueHeart enables low cost sustainable heating for existing buildings.
- Sell more heat pumps by unlocking market potential in existing residential buildings.
- Blue Heart is ready for future regulations, specifically the upcoming 2027 F-gas legislation. The Blue Heart does not use propane and has a GWP of 0, making it future-proof and regulation-safe.
- complexity of producing a compressor
- Wide temperature range from -20C up to +80C and efficient modulation enabling higher standardization
- Compatible with existing buildings with poor insulation or new buildings (hot water (DHW) and high share of DHW compared to space heating)
Installers
- Lower investment barriers for consumers and property owners resulting in an easier sales for installers.
- Lower installation risk when installing a heat pump in an existing buildings due to high tolerance of the technology in respect of sizing, behavior and installation.
- Easy and simpler installation, simple certification needed for handling of F-gasses or propane.
- Multi-source applications with the same unit and technology.
- Improved TCO and property values by reducing CAPEX and OPEX cost to achieve sustainable heating. The BlueHeart engine can be used with existing heating systems and does not need the highest insulation levels. It reduces energy and maintenance cost to improve the energy performance of existing buildings.
- Improved financial and operational planning: the BlueHeart Engine enables property owners to decouple the installation of a heat pump from insulation upgrades, creating more flexibility.
- Silent and comfortable, the Blue Heart Engine offers more flexibility in terms of location of the heat pump in the building, without compromising a quiet and comfortable environment.
- Lower maintenance and less hassle due to long design life
- Lower depreciation due to long design life, and high quality manufacturing..
- Enables option for small footprint heat storage due to high temperature capability.
End Consumers
- Saving on energy costs by switching from fossil fuel to electricity.
- Supporting sustainability by electric heating and no greenhouse gases in the system.
- Comfortable and quiet home, with low sound emissions.
- Warm and hassle-free home, With high heating performance, the Blue Heart heats all homes, even poorly insulated homes.
- Opportunity to capitalize on smart grid and electricity market rates due to an unparalleled response time in the heat pump industry
