Aluminium for next generation HVACR

The world is getting warmer and populations across the world are achieving higher standards of living. Aluminium meets the need for more environmentally conscious indoor climate control.

With legislations such as the Montreal Protocol looking to reduce the potential carbon footprint of refrigerants, a new breed of climate systems is needed.

Green aluminium in HVACR

When you choose Hydro, you are choosing the greenest provider of aluminium tube solutions for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration applications. You receive a solution that is based on an infinitely recyclable material, and which benefits your business as well as the environment around you.

Due to the physical properties of aluminium, the gains in performance and efficiency are as prevalent as the reduction in cost, size, and weight, compared to the traditional metal of choice, copper.

We deliver state-of-the-art tube solutions for the following applications:

Micro-channel heat exchangers
Fin and tube heat exchangers
Shell and tube heat exchangers
Line sets
Manifolds and headers

Micro-channel heat exchangers

If you are looking to maximize the competitive advantages of an all-aluminium heat exchanger, then brazed micro-channel heat exchangers are for you.

Fin and tube heat exchangers

With careful design, aluminium exceeds copper-based systems on most key performance indexes. And it is less expensive. Today, all-aluminium design has established itself as the reference.

Line sets

All-aluminium line sets represent an alternative to copper that can reduce the weight and decrease the cost of your air-conditioning unit.

Shell and tube heat exchangers

Shell-and-tube heat exchangers are mainly used in higher-pressure applications for the heating or cooling of fluids and gases. Consider using aluminium for yours.
