Short read. This is a ~300-word brief based on the full analysis at Househeating Pulse. For the interactive charts, brand-level data, and source tables, open the original.
The sharpest finding is not a brand leaderboard — it’s a data gap. The EPREL slice behind this comparison does not expose country-filtered manufacturer shares for Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, so any “Baltics vs Benelux” winner claim would be overstated. What it does show is how concentrated the wider EPREL universe already is: 60,989 listed models total, with Daikin Europe N.V. at 24.05% of listings (14,668 models) and the top five brands together controlling 51.93% of the catalog.
That concentration matters because local dealer portfolios usually mirror the upstream registry. The next tier drops fast: Mitsubishi Electric Europe sits at 9.14%, Johnson Controls Hitachi at 8.54%, Bosch at 5.91%, and Ariston at 4.29%. Among those, Bosch posts the highest average SCOP in the top 10 at 4.69, while Johnson Controls Hitachi is lowest at 4.18 — a 0.51-point spread that is useful for parser and ranking logic, but still not a bloc-level result.
The price side is much clearer. Using Eurostat household electricity band DC and gas band D2, five of the six markets sit below the rough 3.7 electricity-to-gas break-even marker. Belgium is the outlier at 3.90, while the Netherlands is unusually low at 1.49 because gas remains relatively expensive compared with power. The Baltics cluster tightly: Lithuania 2.86, Latvia 2.97, Estonia 3.03.
Refrigerants are noisier. The EPREL declaration set spans 15 codes/blends, but exact-code usage is messy: R32 appears 13,935 times, while R290 shows up 537 times plus a few variant spellings. That makes normalization essential if you’re building reproducible filters around low-GWP options.
