Adaptable to many applications, the VXW Hydronic water-to-water
unit combines efficiency, reliability and safety. This unit
delivers superior comfort for applications using radiant floors,
radiators and fan-coil units. It also supplies hot water for
domestic needs or for pools, spas and snow-and-ice melt. All
this is done at a fraction of the cost of ordinary boilers
or other water-heating devices, because VXW Hydronic geothermal
systems use the unlimited energy found naturally in the earth
to operate at much higher efficiencies. And there are no concerns
about flames, fumes or carbon monoxide. Instead, you get years
and years of safe, reliable performance—and energy savings.
An in-floor radiant-heating system circulates hot water through
a series of pipes encased in the floor. Acting as a giant
radiator, the floor generates warmth to people and furnishings
without those blasts of dry, hot air associated with gas,
propane and oil furnaces. You stay comfortable through conductive
heat, while the air passing over the warm floor provides additional
convective heat. Because the piping system is encased in the
floor, furniture can be arranged without blocking register
vents. Other radiant-heat applications requiring hot water—including
wall or floor-mounted radiators—also may be used.
Your GeoSmart Energy VXW Hydronic water-to-water
unit also can be used with fan-coil units, in which hot or
cold water passes through a water coil in an air handler to
supply conditioned comfort. The water-to-water unit delivers
water at just the right temperature to heat, cool and dehumidify.
Your system can be designed to generate an abundant supply
of hot water, provided efficiently and reliably whenever you
need it. The cost of this hot water will be significantly
less than with ordinary systems.
With efficiencies three times that of conventional pool heaters,
VXW Hydronic water-to-water units can dramatically reduce
water-heating costs for pools. Owners of outdoor pools in
colder climates can affordably extend their swimming season
with a reliable supply of efficiently-heated water.
Using pipes embedded in a sidewalk, driveway or patio, this
system delivers warm water to the area to keep the surface
free of snow, ice and moisture, thus turning winter into spring.
