PE100-RC THE NEW GENERATION OF GROUND-SOURCE PIPE MATERIAL PE100-RC stands for Polyethylene Resistant to Crack The major benefit of PE100-RC probes is the increased point load resistance over PE 100 Point loads are a potential problem as the probe does not sink in a straight line PE100-RC lasts longer on ACT test than PE100 (Accelerated creep test which is an artificial pipe ageing method) Many European countries have switched from PE100 to PE100-RC as their ground source pipework of choice The UK GSHPA has already included PE100-RC as a pipe material in their Vertical Borehole Standards All our PE100-RC Probes have SKZ certification (independent test house) Our Probes are 3rd party accreditedVisit the Go Geothermal Ltd website for more information on Probes
