FALSE

If you drill fewer deep boreholes instead of many shallow ones, you can save a lot of money on casing, trench digging, manifold chambers, set-up time, etc. These costs usually exceed the increased drilling cost by a good margin. MuoviTech has collectors adapted to deeper boreholes.

Contact us for help choosing the best collector for your project.

FALSE

To have an efficient geoenergy system, you need as efficient heat transfer between the ground and the brine as possible. The collector acts as a heat exchanger in the ground and has a great impact on how well the system works. TurboCollector creates a turbulent flow in the brine, which leads to a better heat transfer. Another aspect that must be considered is the collector's dimension. If the dimension is too small, the heat pump will not be able to pump around the volume it needs. This leads to a deteriorating system.

Contact us if you are unsure which collector is right for your particular project, and we will help you choose the right one.

FALSE

The adjustment valves should be adjusted during commissioning of the system and after a period of operation. If all valves are left fully open, some boreholes will have too low flow and some too high. This causes the geoenergy system to become skewed and less efficient. MuoviTech has a wide range of balance valves.

Contact one of our sales staff if you are unsure which adjustment valve you need for your geoenergy project.

FALSE

Knowing the pressure drop you get in a geoenergy system is crucial to getting an efficient system. If the pressure drop is higher than the pumps can handle, it will cause the heat pump to have a lower flow than what it is designed for. This in turn leads to higher delta T, colder brine and worsened COP. The heat pump simply becomes less efficient. Since today we generally drill much deeper than we did 10 years ago, larger collectors are required to have a manageable pressure drop.

Contact us and we will help you with calculations of pressure drop and selection of collectors.

FALSE

Usually, ethanol is used as a brine in most geoenergy plants, as it has been for many years. Ethanol has some disadvantages: It is flammable, environmentally harmful when released, has a low density and becomes turbulent only at high flow. There are alternatives to ethanol. MuoviTech sells Kilfrost GEO. It is a brine that is non-flammable, non-toxic, has a high density and quickly becomes turbulent.

Contact us if you want to make your system more efficient, safer and more environmentally friendly.

FALSE

If you follow the "Instructions for placing collectors in geoenergy systems" from the Swedish Geoenergy Center, you can save both time and money by using insulated pre-insulated PE pipes. Under 3.3.1 - 3.3.2 you can read that less excavation with insulated pipes is necessary, which saves costs immediately.

The advantage for the customer is a more secure system.
