The Geo-Gooser (PN 3502) is used to add water or loop fluid to a geothermal heat pump through the PT plugs via a garden hose attached to a fluid source. Adding fluid to a closed loop system increases the system static pressure, so the Gooser can be thought of as a manual loop pressurization device. The Geo-Gooser is a standard component of any geothermal service technician’s tool kit.
NOTE: Care must be exercised when using the Geo-Gooser or any geothermal loop pressurization device to avoid pushing air into the loop along with the fluid.
Basic Geo-Gooser and Flush Kit (PN 3509) includes:
- ½” ball valve with standard garden hose female connection
- 0-100 PSI gage to allow for basic static pressure check
- (1) Removable PT port needle assembly for inserting the Gooser into a PT Plug
- (2) Removable Flo-Link Garden Hose Female Adapters for heat pump/inside flushing with Flo-Link Double O-ring Style Flow Centers (ClimateMaster flow controllers, Enertech, WaterFurnace, Bard, and FHP-Bosch flow centers)
- (2) 1” MPT X Flo-Link Female fittings to allow flushing of any 1” FPT flow center
- Attractive 12”x10”x 2-3/4” carrying case with protective foam inserts
