Coils
Applications
A monopropylene glycol-based coolant recovers the heat energy via the horizontal probe, which is then converted by a heat pump using glycolated water or water on its own to heat or cool homes and business premises through underfloor heating, radiators or fan-assisted convection heaters, and produce hot water for sanitation or even heat swimming pools.
Advantages
- Terra Horizon probes are available in kit form (coils, clips and manifold) in DN20, DN25 and DN32 with smooth geothermal pipes. Spiral pipes are available as an option and can lower the thermal resistance of the fluid and thereby the load losses, delivering a performance increase of up to 20%!
Metric markings on the coils
Capture surface area: 150% to 200% of the surface area to heat
Yields: 15 to 30 W/m2, depending on the type of ground
Efficiency: loose ground is best
System burial depth: 60 cm to 1.50 m
Installation: the capture area should not be covered with hard standing, nor should water intake and outlet pipes run across it. The top surface of the area can, however, be turfed over, made into a flower or shrub bed, or used as a vegetable patch.
Connects to a heat pump (PAC) with a 50 m connector (25 m outgoing pipe, 25 m return pipe)
The manifold can be installed indoors or outdoors in an inspection pit
