Open Loop Geothermal Wells

Open Loop System operates under the same principles as closed loop system except for it operates on more of a pump and dump system by this we mean their are 2 pipes in the well one would be the pipe that brings water into the building and the other being a discharge line. Open Loop systems typically have more footage within the well, which means less well locations. This design method is great for lots with space restrictions were multiple shallow wells cannot be acheived. In some cases exisitng old wells meet the criteria to be converted for GSHP use in conjunction with drinking water and/or Irrigation use.  

 

Benefits:

  • Can be a combo heating/cooling and hot water systems
  • You can save up to 50% on hot water heating by preheating the tank water
  • Made of Mechanical components either buried outside and inside the home
  • Relatively the same size as Traditional systems
  • Piping Carries up to a 50 Year Warrant
  • Can cut energy consumption 20 to 50% & reduce Maintenance & reduces maintenance cost
  • Keeps air warmer in the winter (90-105 °F) and at a more constant temp eliminating hot & cold Spots
  • Very Quite 
  • No Noisy fans in the summer or winter
  • No open flames
  • No Flammable Fuels
  • No dangerous fuel storage tanks
  • Heating efficiency's 50 to 70% higher than traditional systems
  • cooling efficiencies 20 to 40% higher than traditional systems
  • Save money in operating & maintenance costs energy savings usually exceeds the cost of the system within a few years
  • Federal & Local rebates & Incentives for utilizing GSHP Systems
  • No air Pollution
  • Minimize ozone destruction by using factory sealed refridgeration units
  • Conserve natural resources by climate control and lowering emmission
