The Confidence Behind Every Bison Eco Heat Pump

When it comes to choosing a renewable heating system for your home or project, it’s not just about performance — it’s about trust. At Bison Eco, we’re proud to offer air source heat pumps that aren't just engineered for efficiency and sustainability — they’re independently tested and certified to meet the highest international standards.

What Is TÜV SÜD?

TÜV SÜD is a globally recognised testing, inspection, and certification body based in Germany. Their name is synonymous with rigorous quality assurance. Products that carry TÜV SÜD certification have undergone some of the most thorough and unbiased testing available anywhere in the world.

For a product like an air source heat pump — which must perform reliably year-round, in all conditions — TÜV testing ensures true, real-world performance, not just lab promises.

How Are Bison Eco Heat Pumps Tested?

All Bison Eco heat pumps undergo extensive third-party verification and factory quality control, including:

✅ Thermal performance testing across a range of ambient temperatures
✅ Noise level verification (our units operate as low as 38 dB(A))
✅ Energy efficiency validation to ensure A+++ ratings are achieved
✅ Safety, refrigerant containment and pressure tests
✅ Endurance and durability testing for long-term reliability
✅ Control and smart feature testing to ensure seamless app integration

This level of oversight means that every Bison Eco heat pump delivers what we promise — and more.

Why TÜV Certification Gives You Peace of Mind

Independent Assurance: You don’t have to take our word for it — TÜV certification means our claims are verified by a world-class, impartial testing body.
UK-Ready Performance: All testing reflects real-world performance, including operation in low UK winter temperatures.
Built to Last: TÜV-tested systems offer greater reliability and longer life expectancy — backed by our 5-year warranty and expert local support.
Installer & MCS Confidence: TÜV SÜD data supports MCS certification and ensures our products meet all standards for grants like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.

Engineered for Excellence

At Bison Eco, we don’t settle for "good enough". Our partnership with leading European manufacturers ensures every unit combines innovative engineering, quiet operation, and minimal environmental impact, all verified by TÜV SÜD.

So when you choose a Bison Eco heat pump, you’re not just investing in renewable energy — you’re investing in quality, credibility, and a warmer, more efficient future.
