Evaporative Fluid Cooler Installation

 

Hot Loop / Geothermal stops Cooling

Refer to Variables:

 

Before ground loop or after ground loop?

 

If you are incorporating our Evaporative Fluid Cooler with a New Geothermal install to enhance overall performance the Tower should be installed before geothermal enters ground. This will get rid of the heat before it gets to the ground. This will protect the geothermal future performance and enhance the summer’s performance giving a much cooler temperature during the heat load.

 

If you have A Hot Loop and/or the Geothermal performances can not efficiently provide the cooling, the Tower is to be installed after the Geothermal ground loop.  The return water temperatures will be much closer to the actual subsurface ground temperature. This will protect the condensing unit(s).

 

Placement Planning:

 

Our Evaporative Fluid Cooler may be installed remotely, away from loop. This choice may require a Flow Switch. This flow and temperature control will turn on/off Tower pump and fan. 

 

Water access needs to be considered. You will be connecting into a ¾ stainless steel standard female thread fitting.

 

Ball valve is in place to divert flow to the tower from the loop.  The tower should be able to handle all of the flow or you can open the valve a little bit to allow water to by pass the tower if the tower restricts the flow too much.  Just open the by pass ball valve little by little so most of the flow goes to the tower.

 

All loop connections are 1 ½ PVC. You will connect into a Slip joint.
