Geothermal Systems
As the cost of energy increases geothermal installations become the system of choice. The earth has a tremendous capacity for storing thermal energy which can be utilized to heat or cool a  building or home. Although the initial cost of a geothermal application may be higher, if one considers the life cycle savings in energy and the reduced maintenance costs, then geothermal is the smartest decision for your project. Geothermal systems are especially recommended in areas that have significant heating and cooling loads. In areas that are either cooling or heating dominant our hybrid systems could be the perfect solution for your needs. Using a cooling tower in conjunction with a ground loop in areas that have a cooling dominant load reduces the cost of the loop field with only a small impact on the efficiency of the system. Conversely, in areas that are heating dominant, the addition of a boiler to a geothermal loop reduces the loop field cost with a minimal effect on the efficiency of the system. |
Water
Source
Cooling
Tower/Boiler
Systems
A
tower/boiler
system
offers
as
excellent
alternative
to a
geothermal
system
where
space
is
limited
or
initial
costs
are
a
determinant
factor.
The
tower/boiler
system
consists
of a
cooling
tower
that
will
reject
heat
absorbed
by
the
loop
when
the
system
is
predominantly
in
the
cooling
mode.
The
boiler's
function
is
to
add
heat
to
the
loop
when
there
is a
net
heating
demand.
In
many
instances
the
heat
generated
by
the
units
in
cooling
mode
balance
the
heat
loss
in
the
loop
for
the
units
in
the
heating
mode.
In
this
situation
neither
the
tower
nor
boiler
will
operate
as
the
system
is
self
balancing.
Environmental
stewardship
is a
core
philosophy
for
FHP
Manufacturing
from
design
to
production
to
the
reduction
in
our
customer's
energy
bills.
At
FHP,
we
are
working
on a
better
future
every
day.
Advantages
of
FHP's
Technology
Low
Installation
Costs
FHP
water
source
heat
pumps
systems
provide
the
most
flexible
and
lowest
installation
costs
of
virtually
any
HVAC
system.
In a
typical
installation
the
water
loop
remains
above
the
dew
point
of
the
ambient
air
meaning
no
insulation
is
required
on
piping,
a
major
cost
of
any
installation.
To
accomplish
the
same
degree
of
flexibility
as a
heat
pump
system,
a
four
pipe
system
is
required.
This
represents
another
significant
cost
saving
potential
since
heat
pump
installations
only
require
a
two
pipe
system
for
either
heating
or
cooling.
Flexibility
And
Comfort
FHP
units
come
in a
wide
variety
of
models,
sizes
and
configurations.
This
provides
the
design
engineer
true
flexibility
when
designing
the
system.
Should
the
occupancy
of
an
area
change,
the
unit
may
be
changed
out
for
the
appropriate
size
without
major
modifications
to
the
layout.
Energy
Efficient
FHP
units
operate
individually
with
high
efficiency
making
the
complete
system
extremely
efficient.
What
makes
this
system
unique
is
the
ability
to
transfer
heat
around
the
building
in
winter
through
the
common
water
loop.
In
today's
modern
buildings,
interior
zones
generally
require
cooling
even
in
the
winter
because
of
the
lighting,
occupancy
and
electronic
loading.
When
cooling
these
areas
heat
is
transferred
to
the
water
loop
and
utilized
by
the
units
on
the
perimeter
that
may
require
heating.
This
is
the
only
system
with
this
capability
and
the
net
result
is a
truly
economical
operating
system.
Individual
units
serve
specific
zones
so
that
there
is
no
need
to
operate
large
units
if
there
is
only
a
small
area
calling
for
heating
or
cooling.
Redundancy
The
building
is
not
dependent
on
one
or
two
large
chillers.
With
multiple
units
serving
individual
zones
should
one
unit
fail,
only
this
area
is
affected.
FHP
units
are
designed
for
convenient,
easy
and
fast
service
and
do
not
require
specialized
training
to
maintain
or
repair.
Downtime
should
be
minimal.
Routine
maintenance
is
limited
to
filter
replacement
and
an
annual
checkup,
making
maintenance
costs
for
water
source
heat
pumps
one
of
the
lowest
of
any
system.
Space
Savings
FHP
horizontal
units
are
designed
to
be
as
compact
as
possible.
In a
commercial
application
units
are
typically
located
above
a
false
ceiling
meaning
that
large
equipment
rooms
that
would
normally
house
large
chillers
or
air
handlers
are
not
required
This
frees
up
space
that
can
now
be
used
for
tenant
occupancy
generating
additional
revenue
throughout
the
life
of
the
building.
Each
FHP
unit
will
have
its
own
duct
system
to
serve
the
specific
zone.
Large
central
plant
ducting
is
not
required,
allowing
for
the
possibility
of
reduced
floor
to
floor
height
with
a
corresponding
reduction
in
the
mass
and
cost
of
the
building.

Cooling
Mode
In
the
COOLING
mode,
the
refrigerant,
a
hot
gas,
is
pumped
from
the
compressor
to
the
water-to-refrigerant
heat
exchanger
via
the
reversing
valve.
Water,
generally
with
an
anti
freeze,
following
through
the
water-to-refrigerant
heat
exchanger
removes
heat
and
the
hot
gas
condenses
into
a
liquid.
This
liquid
then
flows
through
a
metering
device
to
the
air-to-refrigerant
heat
exchanger
coil.
In
evaporating
into
a
gas,
the
liquid
absorbs
heat
and
cools
and
dehumidifies
the
air
that
passes
over
the
coil
surface.
The
