History The football club Teplovyk traces its founding roots to 1998 as a factory team of the State City Company "Ivano-Frankivsk Teplokomunenerho" (IFTKE). "Ivano-Frankivsk Teplokomunenerho" is an abbreviation for Ivano-Frankivsk community energy and utility.
At first the new football club was taking part in competitions among teams of utility companies of Ivano-Frankivsk, the region (Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast) as well as other mini-football tournaments.
During the two seasons, 1998 and 1999, the team competed in the regional championship under the auspice of the "Ukraine" fitness and sports society regional council and twice became a champion of this competition.
In 2000, the club entered the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast championship at its top tier.
In 2002, the club won the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast championship under the guidance of Vasyl Humenyaka.
In 2013, Teplovyk merged with a local youth football club Nika changed its name to Municipal Football Club Nika-Teplovyk.
Before the 2014 season, Nika-Teplovyk went bankrupt and separated, with Nika remaining in the Oblast Premier League, while Teplovyk for the 2014 season had to restart from the second league (second tier) with a help from another local company "Yutim".
In 2015, the team competed in competitions of the regional top tier. The senior team finished 6th place, while the youth team in parallel competitions won the championship.
In 2016, Teplovyk entered the Ukrainian Football Amateur League, where in a group phase it placed 4th out of 4. Nonetheless, initially, the club applied for the Second League, and its application was approved. At the same time, in the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast championship top-tier continued to compete the club's reserve team Teplovyk-DYuSSh-3.
The club entered the 2016–17 Ukrainian Second League gaining the professional status. The club also adopted a new logo with the year of 2016 inscribed on it.
On 5 December 2016, the club's administration applied to change its name to Teplovyk-Prykarpattia for the spring portion of the competition, while simultaneously changing its name again to Prykarpattia for the 2017–18 season. The fact of renaming of Teplovyk into Prykarpattia was confirmed by the mayor of Ivano-Frankivsk, Ruslan Martsinkiv. The club's administration also adopted a new logo with the year 1981 inscribed on it when the original Spartak Ivano-Frankivsk changed to Prykarpattia.
In 2018, Prykarpattia's reserve team, Teplovyk-DYuSSh-3, competing at the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast competitions, changed its name to Prykarpattia-Teplovyk.
Later, the club claimed that they were not just renamed but had been "revived" and distanced themself from Teplovyk.
On 17 April 2022, during the 2021–22 Ukrainian First League season and amidst the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, 14 Prykarpattia players and coaches joined the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Almost the entire football club from the First League joined the Armed Forces, Ukrayinska Pravda (17 April 2022) Because of that, the club changed its name to Prykarpattia-ZSU, under which it competed in Ukrainian competitions.
