GEROtherm® FLUX – Villa, 1260 Nyon
CONSTRUCTION:
Villa, 1260 Nyon
DESCRIPTION:
The layout of the site did not allow multiple geothermal probes to be installed. It was therefore necessary to dig deeper at a single spot in to obtain sufficient energy to heat the villa. For this reason, we installed a GEROtherm® FLUX 53 mm geothermal probe at a depth of 350 metres.
The drilling company Orllati Géothermie SA is extremely proud to have installed the first GEROtherm® FLUX 53 mm. The conical shape of this probe together with the large 53 mm outside diameter of its single pipe enable a huge reduction in pressure losses compared to conventional cylindrical probes while guaranteeing a resistance appropriate to the buckling pressure exerted at this depth. It is also worth noting that the temperature of the heat transfer fluid increases proportionately at the drill depth, which improves the efficiency of the installation (seasonal performance coefficient) while considerably reducing energy consumption.
