Geothermal Earth Loops
Four basic types of geothermal
energy sources
Closed loop
systems circulate a water-based solution
through a “loop” of small diameter,
underground pipes. Closed loop systems
can be installed horizontally,
vertically, or in a pond. Open Loop
systems utilize an existing water well.
Regardless of whether the system is open
or closed, heat is transferred to or
from the home to provide year-round
comfort no matter what the outdoor
temperature is.
Horizontal
loops are often considered when
adequate land surface is available.
Pipes are placed in trenches, in lengths
that range from 100 to 400 feet. Click
on loop diagram to see it enlarged.
Vertical
loops are the ideal choice when
available land surface is limited.
Drilling equipment is used to bore
small-diameter holes from 75 to 300 feet
deep. Click on loop diagram to see it
enlarged.
Pond
(lake) loops are very
economical to install when a body of
water is available, because excavation
costs are virtually eliminated. Coils of
pipe are simply placed on the bottom of
the pond or lake. Click on loop diagram
to see it enlarged.
Open
loop systems utilize ground
water as a direct energy source. In
ideal conditions, an open loop
application can be the most economical
type of geothermal system. Click on loop
