R290 (propane) has near-zero GWP and reaches higher flow temperatures with better cold-weather performance, but installation siting rules are stricter due to flammability. Both are excellent — \u003cstrong\u003eR32 is the all-rounder, R290 is the futureproof choice.\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails style=\"border:1px solid #E5E7EB;border-radius:4px;margin:8px 0;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;background:#008377CF;color:#fff;padding:10px 14px;font-weight:600;list-style:none;\"\u003eCan I run this Ecodan with my existing radiators?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:12px 16px;background:#FFFFFF;\"\u003eIn most cases yes — R290's \u003cstrong\u003e75°C flow temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e capability means radiators sized for a gas boiler will usually deliver enough output without uprating.
