Mission
At Entropic, our mission is to be a model for others and to deliver longer lasting and less damaging HVAC systems while reducing project delivery time, capital investment, operational costs and Scope 1,2, & 3 emissions.
Environmental Mission
- Build healthier buildings
- Reduce pollutants and chemicals
- Reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Reduce the use of refrigerants in buildings.
Message from our founder
Our values and what ‘ecology’ means to us.
The ecological interaction between a person and their environment provides the healthiest conditions for the person while simultaneously providing the best level of comfort, energy use and sustainability.
Ecological indoor environments are provided with HVAC systems comprised of components that are ecologically sourced, meaning that the least amount of environmental damage has been done while sourcing the raw materials and producing the components and chemicals (refrigerants and anti-freeze) in the system.
The systems which provide ecological indoor environments use very little energy.
Ecological indoor environments use no fossil fuels. The production of heat and electricity for the building does not use fossil fuels at any stage if possible, including the transportation of the fuel.
Locally sourced non-fossil-fuel-energy must be used. This does not permit transporting wood-pellets or other non-fossil fuels over distances of more than 100km.
The amount of fossil-fuel-CO2 used to produce, transport and install photo voltaic panels must be less than the amount of fossil-fuel-CO2 saved by using the PV panel.
In low polluting HVAC systems, if a failure or breakdown of the system occurs, harmful pollutants are not released into the atmosphere and occupants are not at risk.
An ecological HVAC system is an easily repairable system with locally available components.
During decommissioning and recycling of an ecological sound HVAC system, refrigerants or anti-freeze is not released and all of the components and fluids are reusable and recyclable.
At Entropic we have many years of experience working with large industrial and commercial customers to implement energy-saving technologies and systems.
Our experience with large industrial ventilation systems has helped some of the largest energy users in Ireland to significantly reduce their energy consumption, fossil-fuel-CO2 emissions and overhead costs.

Clients Testimonials
I look forward to future projects where we will work together
We are coming to the end of the contract down in the project so I would just like to take this opportunity to thank Entropic and especially Graham and Michelle for all the help you have given us and our client in making the project as much of a success as it has been. Considering the volume of Iris Dampers and Grilles that were required the lack of issues we have had has been phenomenal. This would not have been achieved without the hard work of those in Entropic and I look forward to future projects where we will work together.
M.Positive team
Just to say the sparks, your lad who came to site was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and rather than always getting negative comments it is nice to get some positive ones as well but when I do get nice feedback I like to pass them on as well.
W.Category: Air handling units, heat recovery, EcoDesign compliance, healthcare
To Whom It May Concern,
We confirm that we specified ‘Entropic’ Heat Recovery Air Handling Units (AHU’s) on a Primary Care Centre project in 2016.
Apart from the high efficiency thermal wheel and robust design of the units, they were compliant with EcoDesign 2018 which was a key attribute of the units. Ecodesign has strict limits on SFP (Specific Fan Power) and high heat recovery requirements for BVU (Balanced Ventilation Units, i.e. units with supply and extract).
The AHU’s were approved under a submittal process with the HSE and have proven to be very reliable to date.
G.We worked with Entropic on a complex build project. From the get go, they were solution based and always looking forward as to how best get the project over the line. Their solutions were tailored to our specific needs and they have continued to provide best in class after care as we move forward. I would highly recommend the team to any business looking at building/maintaining a ventilation system.
C.Category: Med-tech, laboratory ventilation system upgrade
Hi guys,
Just a word of thanks for the recently completed Lab Development, I can walk away from this one saying that I am 100% happy with the solution offered & installed.
To get the perfect solution is never plain sailing but with considerable effort, attention to detail and fast turn arounds, I can say this one worked out perfect in the end!
The simplicity of the system is what makes it so good… K.I.S.S.! and hopefully reliable for many years to come.
I hope we can continue find the optimum solution for future project here…
Thanks again…S.
