Several building types rely upon high-temperature (180F+) water for processes like hydronic space heating, final-cycle dishwashing, and sanitization. Until recently, heat pump technology was limited to lower temperature applications. But the heat pump market is evolving rapidly, and several products capable of producing 180F to 194F are now available for multifamily and commercial buildings like hospitals, gyms, and breweries.

Watch this online event to hear from high-temp heat pump manufacturers and learn more about this exciting emerging technology.
