Underground pipes are used to circulate water or air to produce geothermal energy. It is thermal energy generated and stored in the Earth.
Underground pipes are used to circulate water to produce geothermal energy. Geothermal energy is extracted from the heat stored beneath the Earth's surface, usually by circulating water through underground pipes to capture this heat and convert it into usable energy through power plants.
to stop condesation of water from the surface of pipe.
Copper or plastic piping
Polyethylene (PE) is the most commonly used plastic for underground mains and service pipes to properties. It is favored for its flexibility, resistance to corrosion, and ability to withstand varying soil conditions. Additionally, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) is often used for its strength and durability in underground applications.
The hydraulic force of water allows water to be transported in the pipes. Hydraulic force from the water treatment plant is used to pump the water vertically across the underground pipes. Then, another hydraulic force pumps the water from underground to the storey that you are living in horizontally up.
Before copper and plastic pipes became available people used to use lead, iron or steel to make water pipes. Nowadays main water supply pipes for fresh water coming into buildings are made of plastic and pipes within buildings - delivering water to sinks, baths, showers and toilets - are made either of copper or plastic. Within buildings, pipes which take away waste water - which are also called drainage pipes - are usually made of plastic. Outside buildings, modern drainage pipes are mostly made of plastic but older drain pipes may be made of glazed earthenware (which is baked clay) or iron.
Underground pipes are primarily used to circulate water or air for heating, cooling, and ventilation systems, as well as for irrigation and drainage purposes. In heating and cooling systems, they facilitate the transfer of thermal energy, while in irrigation, they ensure efficient water distribution to crops. Additionally, these pipes can help manage stormwater and wastewater, contributing to environmental sustainability.

Saudi Vitrified Pipe Company. A maker of ceramic pipes in Saudi Arabia.PVC pipe is Polyvinylchloride (a "plastic") pipe used worldwide for water and sewage.
Common materials used for underground drainage pipes include PVC (polyvinyl chloride), HDPE (high-density polyethylene), and concrete.
