The GeoVault is an economical, tough, and reliable vault designed exclusively
for the commercial geothermal industry. The GeoVault is engineered
using the highest quality components to provide a lifetime of fail-safe service
for your geothermal loopfield system. This unique design provides for easy
installation, hookup and system maintenance.
Structure
The GeoVault is a composite structure of steel and concrete. The
inner shell consists of a heavy-duty steel frame and base with steel interior
walls, ceiling and floor that are specially treated with a rubberized rust
resistant coating. The outer shell of the wall consists of 8" thick
reinforced poured concrete.
Manifolds
High density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe, joined together with heat fusion, is
used for all of the GeoVault's circuit and main header piping.
This HDPE pipe is tough, non-corrosive, and leak proof. All of the GeoVault's
circuits include valves and pressure/temperature ports for complete isolation,
pressure testing and flow balancing.
Installation
The GeoVault is shipped from factory preformed for concrete pour with
all reinforcement rods, manifolds, and piping secured in place. The GeoVault
is set on an 18" level base of compacted gravel. Concrete (supplied
by the contractor) is then poured into the vault form and screeded off the top
of the form. Sidewalls should be vibrated to ensure complete concrete
placement within the form. Once the concrete cures, the GeoVault is ready to fuse on the circuit and manifold
piping.
Workmanship
All fabrication is performed and inspected by experienced custom
fabrication personnel that are heat fusion certified.

GHP Systems custom fabricates geothermal loopfield manifolds
from HDPE pipe to meet your design specifications. A typical manifold
includes valves and pressure/temperature ports on each circuit. With this
design setup, circuit isolation, pressure testing, and any required flow
balancing can be easily performed. Each circuit can be individually
flushed and purged and accessed by connecting to the fill port. An
isolation valve, fill port and temperature and pressure indicators are also incorporated on the main.
