Geosource Ultra Forced Air Vertical Heat Pump
The Geosource Ultra Forced Air vertical, supplied by Geothermal North, is environmentally friendly as it helps homes and business reduce their carbon footprint considerably. This eco friendly heat pump utilizes the R410a refrigerant that adds to its performance.
Once the refrigerant is compressed and a temperature of 160 degree Celsius is attained, the original heat is released with the help of a blower and associated ductwork into homes or other areas. Some of the accessories available with the Geosource Ultra Forced Air vertical, supplied by Geothermal North, are a PumpPAK for easy installation, an electronic thermostat and earth loop piping made of polyethylene plastic.
The advanced technology in the heat pump comes in the form of the brazed plate heat exchanger and scroll compressor. This heat pump absorbs the heat of the earth through looped pipes with water in them. Once this high temperature from the ground is tapped by the heat pump, the refrigerant absorbs it and then vaporizes.
