R290: the sustainable choice for a greener future

The newly introduced airH2O 800 series, running on the eco-friendly R290 refrigerant, marks a major advancement in Hitachi Cooling & Heating’s commitment to environmental responsibility.

R290 (propane) is a natural refrigerant with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 0,02 in last GIEC report, making it one of the most climate-friendly options currently available. In line with evolving EU F-Gas regulations, this choice reduces environmental impact while maintaining exceptional performance.

One of the most silent heat pumps on the market

With a sleek, modern design, these units are crafted to blend effortlessly into any environment, while providing an ultimate comfort for end-users. A standout feature of the airH2O range is its advanced noise reduction system.

The outdoor units have been meticulously engineered with several enhancements to minimize acoustic impact, including:

• A vibration-absorbing structure to reduce mechanical noise,
• An optimized fan and motor design for smoother, quieter operation,
• And a dedicated silent mode, ideal for nighttime use or sound-sensitive environments.

These elements work together to offer discreet comfort, barely noticeable yet always effective. For instance, the airH2O 600 (8.5 kW) model boasts a remarkablylow acoustic level of just 41 dB(A) at 1m, – making it an ideal solution for installations where noise control is a priority.

Safety first: thoughtful plug & play engineering for peace of mind

The airH2O 800 R290 was engineered with installer and user safety at its core. Its sealed design keeps refrigerant outside the living space, eliminating direct contact or handling. Going far over the minimum regulatory standard, the heat pump boastsup to 12 integrated safety features – including a real-time leak alarm system connected to the mobile app – make it the safest R290 heat pump on the market.

All configuration and commissioning operations are managed from the indoor controller, or even through the smartphone via an exclusive NFC functionality, eliminating the need to open the unit.

Smart connectivity for modern living

Designed to enhance convenience and efficiency, the airH2O range is equipped with cutting-edge smart features that simplify everyday life:

• NFC technology ensures quick setup and hassle-free commissioning, making installation and maintenance more efficient than ever (create / copy / paste / duplicate a setting directly with the smartphone).
• Built-in Wi-Fi enables seamless remote control, allowing users to monitor and adjust their system from anywhere.
• CSNET Home App, designed for both professionals and homeowners, provides intuitive access to settings, performance insights, and troubleshooting support.
• Next-generation colour LCD controller, recognized with the prestigious European Product Design Award, now comes in an elegant black finish (in option, not standard), blending innovation with sleek aesthetics.
