HEAT PIPE TECHNOLOGY, INC. is the innovation leader in energy recovery and dehumidification systems for commercial applications around the globe.  Employing the very latest in passive heat transfer technology, Heat Pipe Technology, Inc. designs and supplies the core systems to the world’s leading commercial air handling equipment manufacturers.

The Heat Pipe Technology Inc. Story

Heat Pipe Technology, Inc. was founded in 1983 with a grant from the Department of Energy for a project to begin research on new uses for heat pipe technology
Heat pipes are passive heat transfer devices that were previously used in various applications ranging from orbiting satellites to the Alaskan Pipeline ground spikes. By applying the principle of heat pipes to air conditioning systems, efficiency was greatly enhanced in both dehumidification performance and energy utilization, with moisture removal increased by 30 to 50%.
Additional research and development followed to determine how to lower fabrication costs. This task was performed by HPT under a three-year, $500,000 contract with NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. The outcome of that effort was a new generation of heat pipe technology, costing one third the price of the existing aerospace heat pipes, while still offering the same level of performance.
This revolution shattered the price barrier that restricted the widespread commercial  implementation of heat pipes, and yielded a short return on investment for building owners, often in as little as a year. Projects soon proved the technology could be applied on virtually any scale, while being commercially viable and practical to implement.
While humidity control became a widely recognized requirement for indoor air quality in all modern buildings, heat pipes quickly proved to be the most cost effective and efficient method of dehumidification in the world. Compared to other dehumidification technologies, HPT heat pipes can save up to 50% of the energy normally consumed.
With a staff of innovative mechanical engineers and a specialized team of installation experts, HPT began installing patented Dehumidifier Heat Pipes in thousands of locations in the US and around the world. The client list has grown to include many high profile applications such as Walt Disney World, Kennedy Space Center Marriott & Hilton hotels, the US military, many of the US's top universities, and hundreds of schools.

Products for the Future

In addition to dehumidification, in 1996 HPT began producing the most advanced line of heat recovery heat pipes available for HVAC applications. Called the HRM Series, these air-to-air heat exchangers are incredibly efficient, and unlike many predecessors, require no mechanical "tilt" mechanism for all-season operation. The heat recovery heat pipes have been installed with tremendous results across the northern US and Canada and many parts of the world. The tremendous energy saving benefits of the HRM ensures a new level of recognition for HPT in the heat recovery marketplace.
