GeoFurnace Manufacturing has developed different models of geothermal heat pumps for harsh colder climates. The MTex Series forced air heating system available from the company is a single stage water-to-water heat pump designed for commercial or residential buildings. It is available in horizontal or vertical configuration and in different sizes ranging from 1 to 6 tons.
The MTex Series forced air heating system uses R410A refrigerant, which has non-ozone depleting feature, for efficient performance. It incorporates scroll compressors that have a few moving parts, and are hermetically sealed to provide silent operation. They can be mounted on vibration isolators. This water-to-water heat pump available from GeoFurnace Manufacturing is equipped with variable speed ECM motors with belt-driven or direct-driven blowers. These fan motors are isolated by rubber grommets from the housing. The cabinet frame of this heat pump is made of heavy-gauge stainless steel and access panels that are constructed with galvanized stainless steel. There are removable access panels for accessing the compartment from all sides.
The MTex Series forced air heating system includes LED diagnostics to provide timely service. The horizontal unit is incorporated with a condensate trap. This heat pump also has brass swivel earth loop connections and a return air filter rack. Cupronickel coaxial or stainless steel flat plate heat exchangers are available as options. This water-to-water heat pump also includes 5kW, 10kW and 15kW resistance strip heaters as options.
