Climapulse

Overview

Climapulse is a Hasselt software company that builds a cloud platform for the HVAC sector, covering the administration around cooling installations and heating appliances. It sells two products: Climapulse Service, aimed at installers and their technicians, and Climapulse Connect, aimed at building, facility and ESG managers who follow the installations in their portfolio. The software covers digital work orders, installation logbooks, refrigerant accounting, combustion certification and planned maintenance, and generates maintenance certificates automatically for VEKA and EP-BRU. The platform started in 2009 as software called Coolant, written by Timmy Maris after his father Freddy Maris, a refrigeration technician who moved into the trade in 1992, asked for a way to handle the paperwork introduced by the F-gas legislation. Climapulse NV was incorporated on 27 May 2015 and was built out from a loft in Genk. Timmy Maris, a computer science graduate, handles strategy. His brother Sammy Maris, a certified refrigeration technician and programmer, works on technical execution, and his brother Ruben Maris continues the family installation business. Freddy Maris is retired. Climapulse Connect was introduced in 2014, a heating module followed in 2016, and the company moved to Corda Campus in Hasselt in 2020. It received Vinçotte recognition in 2010 and Bureau Veritas certification in 2018. More than 1,000 companies and 7,500 users work with the platform, and the most recent annual accounts report 8.9 full-time equivalents.
