“What is HDPE Geothermal Piping?” Benefits for Nantucket Homes
HDPE, or High-Density Polyethylene, is a type of plastic known for its durability, flexibility, and resistance to corrosion. It is often used in applications where reliability and longevity are crucial, such as water and gas distribution, sewage systems, and, of course, geothermal heating and cooling systems.
In a geothermal system, HDPE pipes are installed underground, where they circulate a water or water-antifreeze solution. This solution absorbs heat from the ground during winter to warm the home and dissipates heat into the ground during summer to cool it. The closed-loop nature of the system, combined with the properties of HDPE piping, allows for efficient heat transfer, minimal maintenance, and a lifespan that often exceeds 50 years.
