Hydronic Geothermal Systems

Installing commissioning real time geothermal monitoring systems.

Hydronic geothermal systems.

The temperature of the air in the home will be warmer at the floor and cooler as you rise toward the ceiling which is unmatched for heating comfort. Understanding geothermal requires more than a lap around the loop some drilling skills and a knowledge of hydronic systems. Altherma can provide efficiencies comparable to a geothermal heat pump 3 5 to 4 3 cop in california below 3 500 altitude at 1 2 the installed cost of a geothermal system. The latest systems are incorporating communicating controls variable speed and inverter driven capabilities.

This also reduces the heat loss through the ceiling and upper walls. The buffmax is ideal for geothermal heating hydronic air source heating cooling biomass and all low mass condensing boilers. Hydron module geothermal systems are incredibly quiet improve air quality lower humidity levels and provide zoning so areas where you spend the most time can be kept at a different temperature. These trane models provide forced air heating and cooling to your home while also providing radiant floor heat and domestic hot water assistance.

Water to water geothermal heat pumps work great with correctly designed hydronic radiant floor systems. Systems that merge the thermal efficiency of a geothermal heat pump the on demand reserve power of a mod con boiler the versatility of zoned chilled water cooling and the heating comfort of hydronic radiant panels can provide unique thermal solutions for a wide range of buildings. Using hydronic radiant floor heating with a water to water geothermal heat pump. In floor and baseboard systems.

Here are some other free resources. Lessons learned on ground loop sizing from 100 000 hours of real time geothermal monitoring data. In a hydronic geothermal system a water to water geothermal heat pump is used to deliver warm water to a building for a low temperature hydronic heating system such as in floor radiant heat. If you need a buffer tank with back up heating for your hydronic project then the ecomax is the ideal choice.

Our systems work with smart thermostats so you always have temperature control. Only slight modifications might be needed. They re the ultimate in comfort systems. Hydronic systems are available with geothermal but not with air source heat pumps.
