Installation Techniques - Commercial

Typical Boiler-Cooler Systems

A boiler is employed to maintain closed loop temperatures above 60°F and a cooling tower to maintain loop temperatures below 90°F. These systems are applicable in medium to large buildings regardless of whether the load is heating or cooling dominated.

Pond Loop Pond (Lake) Loops

Very economical to install when a large body of water is available. Coils of pipe or a submersed heat exchanger are simply placed in the pond or lake.

Vertical Earth Loop

The ideal choice when available land surface is limited. Well drilling equipment is used to bore small-diameter holes from 100 to 400 feet deep. Open loops (Well-Water Systems)

Ground Water Systems

In ideal conditions, an open-loop application can be the most economical type of geothermal system - utilizing well water, lake, ocean or other water source as a direct energy source.

Hybrid Systems

Combines boiler tower and geothermal loop technologies to achieve optimal efficiencies, while meeting the challenges of both loop field space and budget constraints.
