Knowing the thermal properties of the soil you are designing or building a horizontal GHX provides greater confidence in the operation of a GCHP system. The KD2 Pro measures the thermal conductivity (TC) and diffusivity (TD) of the soil in a matter of minutes after you have a soil sample.
It is also used to determine the TC and TD of grout installed in a vertical borehole virtually as it is being mixed. It ensures you, as a designer, will get the performance you are expecting.
Don't guess at the soil properties from the charts...measure it accurately...to ensure your GHX is large enough to protect your company, while avoiding over-sizing the system to the point it doesn't fit the site or is too costly to build.
