Geothermal heating system with cast iron radiators

This video explores the use of cast iron radiators in geothermal heating systems. I first describe conversion of the radiator-based heating system in my own house from oil-fired boiler to geothermal heat pump, including analysis of its costs and its performance. Then I go through the calculations required to determine whether such a system is feasible in any house, and what size and type of heat pump is appropriate. Additional links are listed below.

The last one includes extensive discussion of why you don’t need a buffer tank.
