Application

Efficient Cooling with Plastic Piping Solutions

Rooftop chilled water systems are exposed to extreme environmental conditions, from frigid temperatures as low as -25°C (-13°F) in Northern Europe to scorching surface temperatures exceeding +70°C (+158°F) under direct sunlight. These fluctuations, combined with general weathering from wind, rain, and UV light, pose significant challenges for traditional materials. GF Piping Systems' PE-100 and COOL-FIT plastic piping systems are engineered to withstand these harsh conditions, providing a reliable solution with a lifespan of 25 years. Ideal for chiller and condenser unit installations, these systems offer significant advantages in weight, handling, and long-term performance, ensuring continuous high efficiency and reduced maintenance in rooftop applications.

Save Weight

GF plastic pipes, with densities of 0.9-1.5 g/cc, are significantly lighter than metal alternatives, reducing overall system weight and easing installation on rooftops.

Faster Handling

Lighter plastic materials require no special handling equipment, speeding up installation and simplifying the logistics of rooftop piping system setup.

Less Structural Support

The reduced weight of GF plastic piping minimizes the need for structural steelwork and concrete, lowering construction costs and easing rooftop load-bearing requirements.

Health & Safety

Lightweight plastic piping reduces the physical strain on personnel, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of injuries during rooftop installations.

Success Story: Improving Energy Efficiency

 BADEN CLOUD Data Center, Appenweier, Germany

With digital consumer demand growing exponentially, GF Piping Systems provided the reliable and maintenance-free cooling system that the BADEN CLOUD data center requires to ensure its data stays safe. Data centers must be cooled for reliable operations, as servers, storage systems, and network components generate considerable heat. COOL-FIT, the fully pre-insulated plastic piping system, is 50% faster to install, lightweight, and has zero corrosion. The BADEN CLOUD Operations Manager also chose COOL-FIT to positively affect the company’s carbon footprint, with the system boasting 30% higher energy efficiency.
