Samsung Integrated Mono Gen 7 R290 Heat Pump - 5kW to 16kW

The Samsung EHS Integrated Mono Gen 7 R290 is a high-temperature air-to-water heat pump monobloc, available in 5 kW, 8 kW, 12 kW and 16 kW, using R290 natural refrigerant (propane, GWP = 3). The Integrated variant is the premium configuration of the Gen 7 R290 range: it incorporates the hydraulic components (pump, expansion vessel, flow sensor, pressure relief valve) and the control wiring board with built-in WiFi directly into the outdoor unit, eliminating the need for a separate indoor MIM controller. A single outdoor unit connects directly to the heating circuits and hot-water cylinder — the complete system in one box. The key performance figures: maximum heating flow temperature of 75°C (supporting existing radiator systems and high-temperature DHW cylinders), 100 % heating output at −10°C outdoor temperature, and a SCOP of 5.10 at 35°C for the 5 kW model — up to 14 % higher than the previous R32 generation. ErP class A+++. Noise as low as 35 dB(A) in Quiet Mode. BUS grant eligible. MCS listed. SmartThings compatible.

⚠ F-Gas R290 qualified installer required: R290 (propane) is an A3 flammable refrigerant. UK law requires installation, commissioning and servicing to be carried out by an F-Gas registered engineer with R290 competency certification and a qualified heat pump installer (MCS-accredited for BUS grant eligibility). Do not attempt installation without appropriate qualifications and equipment. R290 tools, gauges and leak detection equipment are refrigerant-specific.

ℹ Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) eligible: This MCS-listed heat pump is eligible for the UK Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant of up to £7,500 towards installation costs for owner-occupied properties in England and Wales. The grant is claimed by the MCS-accredited installer. Confirm current scheme availability and eligibility criteria at gov.uk/boiler-upgrade-scheme.

ℹ 7-year warranty requires Samsung Partner Portal registration: The extended 7-year warranty applies only when the installer is registered on the Samsung Partner Portal and has completed the EHS training modules (renewed every 2 years). Unregistered or untrained installations receive a 2-year warranty. Completing the Commissioning Document and leaving it on site is mandatory in all cases.

SCOP at a Glance — All Four Output Sizes, All Flow Temperatures

SCOP (Seasonal Coefficient of Performance) measures how much useful heat is produced for every unit of electricity consumed, averaged over the full heating season. Higher SCOP = lower running costs. A SCOP of 3.0 means 3 kWh of heat for 1 kWh of electricity. The table below uses MCS-listed figures, measured to EN 14825.

Flow temp	5kW	8kW	12kW	16kW	Typical application
35°C	4.84	4.66	4.73	4.57	Underfloor heating; well-insulated new build
40°C	4.49	4.35	4.42	4.29	Larger radiators or mixed UFH/radiator systems
45°C	4.14	4.04	4.12	4.00	Standard radiators, well-sized
50°C	3.78	3.72	3.82	3.72	Slightly undersized radiators or older properties
55°C	3.42	3.41	3.51	3.43	Older radiator retrofit; recommended design point for many UK retrofits
60°C	3.18	3.15	3.17	3.12	High-temperature buffer; legacy radiators
65°C	2.93	2.89	2.84	2.81	Maximum heat to radiators; boiler-replacement retrofit

MCS-listed SCOP values per MCS 007 calculation method. Test reference conditions per EN 14825. Samsung internal testing gives SCOP 5.10 at 35°C for the 5kW Integrated model (AE050CXYBEK/EU) — 14 % higher than the previous R32 generation (SCOP 4.46 for the equivalent model). Actual seasonal performance depends on design flow temperature, system sizing, controls and climate.

Key Features

R290 Refrigerant — GWP 3, Future-Proof and Phase-Out Safe

R290 (propane) has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 3, compared to R32 (GWP ≈ 675) and R410A (GWP ≈ 2,088). The F-Gas Regulation requires the phase-down of high-GWP refrigerants across Europe. R32 equipment is being phased out from 2026. R290 equipment faces no phase-down under current regulations and will remain serviced and re-gassable indefinitely. Choosing R290 also means a smaller carbon footprint from any accidental refrigerant release during service or end-of-life. The only constraint: R290 is a flammable gas (A3 class), so installation requires certified R290-competent engineers and R290-rated tools and gauges.

75°C Maximum Flow Temperature — Direct Radiator Replacement

This is the specification that makes this unit genuinely suitable for boiler replacement in older UK homes with existing radiator circuits. Most air-to-water heat pumps are designed around low-temperature systems (35 – 45°C), which require radiator upgrades to work efficiently in retrofit applications. The Samsung Gen 7 R290 can deliver 75°C flow water from outdoor temperatures down to −10°C — high enough to drive existing radiators sized for a gas boiler. DHW can be generated to 70°C at −10°C outdoor without an electric booster heater. This eliminates the most common objection to heat pump retrofit and reduces emitter upgrade costs significantly.

100 % Heating Output at −10°C — Reliable UK Winter Performance

Heat pump output degrades as outdoor temperature falls. Many competitors rate their capacity at A7 (7°C outdoor), which is the standard EN 14511 test condition but not the UK winter reality. Samsung certify that the Gen 7 R290 delivers 100 % of its rated heating output at −10°C. This means a 8kW model delivers 8kW in the coldest UK weather without falling back to auxiliary electric heaters. UK design temperatures in most regions are −1°C to −5°C (CIBSE data), so −10°C coverage represents a meaningful safety margin for heating continuity.

Integrated Hydraulics — Pump, Expansion Vessel, Flow Sensor, PRV Built In

The Integrated variant includes a factory-fitted circulation pump, expansion vessel, flow sensor and pressure relief valve inside the outdoor unit. This eliminates the need to mount these components separately indoors or in a separate indoor plant box. The installer connects the outdoor unit directly to the heating circuit and cylinder with fewer indoor connections, less pipework and significantly reduced plant cupboard space. The integrated wiring board further simplifies the electrical installation, with all heat pump-to-system wiring consolidated in one location. WiFi is built in — no separate MIM-H04N dongle required.

4-Step Quiet Mode — 35 dB(A) Minimum — Groove Grid Felt Technology

Samsung have engineered this unit with a double-layered sound insulation system using patented Groove Grid Felt (Patent P2022-0012826), which blocks and absorbs noise from the compressor and vibrations. The 4-step Quiet Mode allows the installer or user to set the noise level progressively: at the lowest step, the unit operates at as low as 35 dB(A). For reference, 35 dB(A) is approximately the noise level of a quiet library. This matters for UK planning: MCS MIS 3005 requires the combined sound level at the nearest noise-sensitive property to be ≤ 42 dB(A). At 35 dB(A) in Quiet Mode, the Samsung typically meets this within a 1 m setback on most domestic sites.

A+++ Energy Efficiency — Across All Four Capacities

All four output sizes of the Integrated Gen 7 R290 achieve ErP class A+++ energy efficiency rating. A+++ is the highest classification available under the EU/UK Energy Labelling Regulation, corresponding to a seasonal performance at least 15 % above the A+++ threshold (SCOP ≥ 4.45 at 35°C). For the 5kW model, Samsung’s measured SCOP of 5.10 is 14 % higher than the previous R32 generation (SCOP 4.46) and 15 % above the A+++ threshold. This translates to proportionally lower running costs relative to any previous-generation heat pump or electric heating system.

SmartThings Integration — AI Energy Mode, Remote Monitoring

The integrated WiFi enables connection to Samsung SmartThings, providing remote monitoring and control via the SmartThings app on iOS and Android. SmartThings AI Energy Mode learns the household’s hot water usage pattern and adjusts DHW scheduling automatically to minimise electricity consumption. If an error occurs, the app sends an automatic service request. Remote Device Care can proactively identify issues before they cause system failure. For installers using Samsung EHS Cloud, the system can be monitored and diagnosed remotely without a site visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Integrated variant still need a MIM controller?

No. The MIM controller is not required with the Integrated variant (CXYBEK/BGK). The wiring board and built-in WiFi are inside the outdoor unit. The standard Samsung Gen 7 R290 (CXYDEK) requires a separate MIM-E03EN controller (or equivalent) for system control and programming. The Integrated variant eliminates this component entirely, reducing cost, installation time and indoor plant space. An optional Samsung AI Home Mono Control Kit (MIM-E03FN) can be added if advanced controls or zone integration beyond the built-in capability are required.

Can this heat pump replace my gas boiler without upgrading my radiators?

It depends on your radiators’ size and heat emitter design. The Samsung Gen 7 R290 can deliver 75°C flow water, which is the temperature range your gas boiler uses. However, a heat pump operating at 75°C has a SCOP of around 2.84 – 2.93 (see the SCOP table), which is lower than at 45 – 55°C. The best approach is a heat pump design assessment: calculate the heat loss of each room, size the radiators to the design flow temperature, and match the pump to the calculated heat loss. With correctly sized emitters at 55°C, SCOP reaches 3.41 – 3.51. Many UK retrofits target 55°C flow with either existing or mildly upgraded radiators, rather than 75°C, because it significantly reduces running costs.

Why does R290 need a specially qualified installer?

R290 (propane) is classified as a flammable refrigerant (A3 class) under the ASHRAE/ISO safety classification. Unlike R32 (A2L, mildly flammable) or R410A (A1, non-flammable), R290 can form an ignitable mixture with air. UK regulations require anyone handling R290 to hold an F-Gas certificate and specifically an R290 competency (covering safe handling, leak detection, appropriate tools and personal protective equipment). R290-rated gauges, manifolds and leak detection equipment are essential. This is not a restriction specific to Samsung — it applies to all R290 heat pumps. Samsung’s MCS-accredited EHS training programme covers R290 handling requirements.

What size heat pump do I need?

The correct output is determined by a heat loss calculation to BS EN 12831, covering all rooms including their fabric U-values, ventilation losses and design outdoor temperature for your region. As a rough guide: a well-insulated 3-bed semi (EPC B, new build) might need 5 – 6 kW. A typical 4-bed detached (EPC C, 1990s) typically needs 8 – 10 kW. An older 5-bed detached with solid walls might need 12 – 16 kW. Do not select a model based on the existing boiler size: gas boilers are routinely oversized by 2 – 3× in UK installations. An MCS-accredited heat pump installer will carry out a proper heat loss survey.

How does the 7-year warranty work?

Samsung offer a 7-year extended warranty on EHS heat pumps when the installer is registered on the Samsung Partner Portal and has completed the Samsung EHS training modules. Training must be renewed every two years to maintain extended warranty eligibility. If the installer is unregistered or untrained, the warranty defaults to 2 years. In all cases, a Commissioning Document must be completed during installation and left on site with the customer. Verify your installer’s Samsung registration status before proceeding.

Is this heat pump eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) grant?

Yes. The Samsung Integrated Mono Gen 7 R290 is MCS listed and therefore eligible for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) in England and Wales. The grant is currently up to £7,500 for an air source heat pump replacing a gas, oil or direct electric heating system. The grant is claimed directly by the MCS-accredited installer; the customer typically sees the cost reduction upfront in the quoted price. Scotland has a separate scheme (HEEPS/Home Energy Scotland). Always confirm current grant amounts and eligibility rules at gov.uk.
