HDPE Pipes for Geothermal Applications
Gamson HDPE Geothermal Pipes are high-performance conduits specifically engineered for Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) systems. These pipes act as the critical heat exchanger between the earth and the building, utilizing the constant temperature of the ground to provide energy-efficient heating and cooling.
Key Features
- Zero Corrosion & Scaling: Unlike metallic geothermal pipes, HDPE is immune to the minerals and chemicals found in groundwater, ensuring the internal diameter remains smooth for life.
- Lightweight & Long Lengths: Supplied in long coils to minimize joints, making them easier to drop into deep vertical boreholes.
- High Pressure Surge Resistance: Capable of handling the pressure fluctuations and water hammer effects common in closed-loop pumping systems.
