How It Works
       
 Geothermals Systems
Geothermal
systems . . . also know as GeoExchange or ground source heat pumps . . .
use the natural temperature of the earth to provide heating and cooling
and hot water for homes and business at a lower cost.
The Ground Loop Heat Exchanger is made of HDPE piping installed in bore
holes or trenches filled with water. The water circulates through the
piping in the earth and becomes a conveyer of BTUs to and/or from the
building for heating or cooling needs.
In
winter, the water solution circulating through piping buried in the
ground absorbs heat from the earth and carries it into the home. The
heat pump in the building extracts heat from the water and then
discharges the heat into the air or water per load demands. |

In
summer, the process is reversed. To cool the building heat is extracted
from the air . . . then via the heat pump . . . the BTUs are discharged
to the water circulating through ground loop where it is cooled by the
earth.
