American Geothermal manufactures the geothermal heat pump that is used for concrete batch water heating and cooling. The efficiency of the heat pump is more than 300 percent. The heat pump is designed with heat exchangers made of cupro-nickel.
Portable Geothermal Heat Pump
The heat exchangers are anti-scaling and non-corrosive. The geothermal heat pump has the ability to heat and cool using the same machine. Cooling and heating can be selected with a flip of a switch.
The geothermal heat pump incorporates a minimum of two compressor units and two individual refrigeration cycles. If one module does not work, the other module runs the machine. The modules can be replaced even while the system is in operation. The unit is mounted with a motor starter and a water circulation pump. The whole heat pump system is controlled from a control panel that features complete diagnostics and programmable logic controls.
The geothermal heat pump has the ability to operate easily both in freezing and tropical climates. The heat pump can pay back the investment in a period of 6 to 22 months. The geothermal heat pump eliminates the need for ice storage, ice handling, fuel, emissions, and inventory. The heat pump provides complete automated operation. The geothermal heat pump can be installed easily by one person. The heat pump is portable and can be installed immediately.
