Air Source Heat Pump Antifreeze

Efficient thermal energy transfer, minimal pumping-energy consumption, long-term preservation of pipework/system components, cost, and minimal environmental impact, all need to be taken into account when selecting the optimum fluid for your air source heat pump system.

Industry proven to maximise heat recovery, reduce maintenance and lower running costs, Thermox DTX™ is a high efficiency, non-toxic geothermal heat transfer fluid with antifreeze function. To prevent internal corrosion, scaling and biological fouling all Thermox™ products are formulated with long-life inhibitors which exceed ASTM D1384 standards.

Launched in 2010, Thermox DTX™ represents a major step forward in heat transfer and pumping efficiency, providing >10% increase in geothermal heat recovery when compared with Propylene Glycol based fluids.

Specified by the UK’s largest heat pump contractors, installers and designers, Thermox DTX™ has been commissioned in thousands of commercial and domestic heat pump systems by industry leaders such as Kensa, Nu-Heat and Ideal.

For industrial, commercial and domestic air source heat pump systems, Hydratech recommend the products listed below.
