The Geotherm pipe is a new product used mainly for heating of greenhouses. It is produced with a high quality HDPE material. Ideal for use with vegetable crops, flowers, special plantation in greenhouses, in addition to chicken farms.
Geotherm piping system is ideal for use with naturally existing geothermic waters. It is non-corrosive, with no salt or lime deposited on its inside wall. It is very stable and its properties do not change as a result of the use of pesticides, fertilzers, and ground acid.
Installing a Geotherm pipe in a greenhouse has several advantages, namely an early crop, a saving of up to 50% on the heating energy needed when compared to traditional heating methods, and an increased production of up to 60%. The Geotherm pipe's corrugated profile is similar to the head convector type ‘’ Radiator ‘’ and has almost twice as much thermal efficiency as the standard PE pipe of the same diameter. It is used as a complete heating system in greenhouses having an additional saving on the initial installation because of a lesser length of pipe requirement and an easy way to install. They require an inlet water temperature of 50؛ C. It can be used with a water temperature up to 80؛ C. The area of coverage is 0.155 M2.
The GEOTHERM pipe is produced for a nominal working pressure of 2.5 atm . The spiral profile of the pipe allows bending it in small curves without any clogging problems, which is in contrast with the other heating systems (air blowers ,heaters , etc ). GEOTHERM is placed on top of the ground next to the plant and its roots . This ensures that the heat goes exactly where it is needed and is not wasted in the top part of the green house which is what happens in the other systems used.
