Horizontal Loop Installation
If a horizontal loop system were installed, it would involve the excavation of
parallel trenches, each 5 feet deep and 3 feet wide and about 130 to 150 feet
long. The minimum distance between each trench is about 15 feet. Each parallel
trench can run in any direction; that is they don't have to be side by side. 600
feet of ¾ inch polyethylene pipe are placed in each trench resembling a slinky
laid flat on the bottom of the 3-foot wide trench. All parallel trenches are
connected to a 1-¼ inch supply and return header which enters the house
through the basement to the geothermal flow center.
Vertical Loop Installation
The vertical loop would involve vertical boreholes 4 inches in diameter drilled
about 150 feet each. Each borehole would be separated from the next by about
10 feet. Two ¾ inch polyethylene pipes are inserted into the 150-foot borehole.
The pipes are connected at the bottom using a U-bend. The borehole is then
filled with bentonite clay to bond the pipe to the earth and prevent surface water
from entering ground water aquifers. The individual wells are joined to a 1-¼
inch header at a depth of 5 feet below grade. The supply and return header
then enters the house through the basement wall.
Open Loop Well Water Installation
Where ground water is abundant, a water well can also be used as the energy
source/sink, reducing the installed cost by eliminating the closed loop. However,
a return well or acceptable surface discharge is required. In addition, an open
loop system will require periodic cleaning of the heat exchanger to remove
mineral deposits. This is generally done annually.
Pond Loop Installation
A pond loop system consists of 300 foot coils of ¾ inch polyethylene pipe
circuited in parallel via 1 ¼ inch polyethylene header pipes. The header and coil
assembly is mounted to a PVC frame which holds the coils at the proper spacing
and depth allowing water to flow underneath and through the center of each
coil. Concrete blocks are attached to the base of the PVC frame and the entire
structure is floated to the desired location in the pond. Once in position the
pond loop is flushed and filled from the basement through 1 ¼" polyethylene
header pipes sinking the pond loop to the bottom of the pond.
