SPIUG

The Association of Heating Equipment Manufacturers and Importers (abbreviated as SPiUG) has been operating since 2005. The founding group included representatives from companies such as DeDietrich, Immergas, Junkers, Vaillant, and Viessmann. Today, the Association brings together leading manufacturing companies that actively operate on the Polish heating and installation market, focusing on modern and eco-friendly technologies for producing heat and hot water.SPIUG sets ambitious goals and action plans for the entire heating industry, with particular emphasis on heating appliances and devices for preparing hot water. SPIUG does not, by design, want to act against anyone on the Polish heating market. The established goals would be hard to achieve without the participation of a wider group of interested people and companies. That’s why SPIUG gladly invites everyone willing to cooperate, which doesn’t necessarily mean immediately joining the Association’s structure.

Is there an alternative to heat pumps?

Is there an alternative to heat pumps—for instance, in terms of energy efficiency, electricity consumption for home heating, power output, warranty duration, investment and maintenance costs, and perhaps even unique features that no heat pump can offer? Yes, such a heating system exists... it is our ET system. You can learn the details at the presentation—I invite you to attend on September 8, 2026, at 11:00AM.
