Autech Carrier is moving to capture South Korea's heating electrification market with a lineup of heat pump products for residential, commercial, and industrial use.


Autech Carrier, an affiliate of the Autech Group, announced on October 22 that it will showcase high-efficiency, eco-friendly heat pump solutions at the 2026 Korea ESG Eco-Friendly Fair, taking place at COEX in Seoul through October 23.


After focusing on commercial heat pumps at last year's exhibition, Autech Carrier has designed this year's booth around the theme of carbon neutrality. At the event, which is being held under the theme “Korean-Style Green Transformation (K-GX) and Carbon Neutrality and Energy Transition,” the company is putting residential heat pump boilers front and center in line with the government's heating electrification policy.


The residential heat pump boiler uses an air-to-water system that draws on heat in the air to provide underfloor heating and hot water through a single system. It can reliably supply medium-temperature water at up to 65°C, making it a replacement for conventional boilers. The company also has mass-production capabilities at its Gwangju plant, a nationwide distribution network, and an after-sales service system.


Real units of Autech Carrier's 14 kW and 16 kW residential heat pump boiler models are on display at the exhibition. Both products were selected for support under the Ministry of Climate, Energy and Environment's 2026 Heating Electrification Program.


Building on this, Autech Carrier plans to expand the supply of heat pump boilers to a range of residential properties, including detached houses, country homes, townhouses, and public rental housing. The company intends to actively pursue the residential market as eco-friendly construction and heating electrification policies gain momentum.


The company has also built up its heat pump technology over many years. In 2011, before South Korea's heat pump market began to take shape in earnest, it developed an inverter hybrid boiler, which it commercialized in 2014. Since July this year, it has also begun mass-producing residential heat pump boilers at its Gwangju plant, establishing a domestic business base spanning product development, manufacturing, and distribution.


Autech Carrier is also presenting its commercial and industrial heat pump lineup. The company will showcase graphics of EHS Optimum, an eco-friendly heat pump solution that won the Energy Winner of the Year Award for delivering efficiency more than three times the energy input.


The company will also introduce the USX-Edge, an air-cooled inverter heat pump chiller that integrates heating and cooling, hot water supply, and water and ice thermal storage. Autech Carrier said the product can reduce energy consumption by up to 40%.


The company will also release a video featuring heat pumps in use at actual sites. A documentary about an 8,000-pyeong smart farm in Gimje, North Jeolla Province, will highlight solutions proven in the field, including reduced electricity costs following the adoption of heat pumps.



“At this year's ESG Eco-Friendly Fair, we focused on showcasing Autech Carrier's heat pump technology across residential, commercial, and industrial applications, with an emphasis on our residential heat pump boiler models selected for the government's heating electrification program,” an Autech Carrier official said. “Drawing on more than 10 years of heat pump technology development and field experience, we will lead South Korea's heating electrification market and take the lead in realizing the Korean-style green transformation and carbon neutrality.”
