Hyting commissioned its first customer installation in February 2026. The system is located at the Flusys production facility in Offenbach, where precision pumps are manufactured. The 10 kW unit heats a space of 1,000 cubic meters. Flusys sources the hydrogen from a regional supplier.
The hydrogen heater operates in a hybrid configuration with a heat pump. The Hyting unit covers peak loads, while the heat pump handles the base load. According to Hyting, this configuration allows for optimal sizing of both components and reduces the required electrical connection capacity.
Catalytic heater operates with hydrogen concentration below flammable range
The technology is based on a flameless catalytic process. Hydrogen reacts with oxygen from the ambient air. According to the manufacturer, no CO2, NOx, or particulate emissions are produced; the only byproduct is water vapor. The system, according to the company, never operates with flammable hydrogen concentrations.
Before commissioning, an engineering service provider conducted a 2,500-hour endurance test, simulating ten years of real operation. The test was completed without failures or measurable wear on safety-critical components. Hyting has also received the GAR certification (Gas Appliance Regulation) for its technology.
Tim Hannig, founder and CEO says: “From the outset, our vision was to replace fossil fuels with hydrogen and thus make a significant contribution to decarbonizing the heating sector. Our technology is simple, safe, efficient, and clean—and we are delighted that our first customer installation is now up and running.”
The heat generators are available in power levels of 10 and 50 kW. Modular configurations allow them to be combined for higher heating capacities. Further customer installations are planned for the first quarter of 2026.
Hyting was founded in 2021 in Wiesbaden. The company focuses on air heating systems for industrial, commercial, and logistics buildings, as well as process heat up to 300 degrees Celsius.
