Heating & Cooling with the Horizontal Geothermal Loop

Explore the innovative and eco-friendly world of geothermal heating and cooling systems with our in-depth look at the horizontal geothermal (Geo) loop installation at Tim and Teresa’s new home, built by Grayson Home Builders. This video provides a practical demonstration and expert insights into how a geothermal loop system efficiently manages home temperatures by leveraging the stable underground temperature.

Geothermal systems work by circulating water through underground pipes, called loops, which absorb the constant temperatures of the earth. In this particular installation, we utilized a "chicken foot" loop design to optimize space and efficiency in a tight area. With pipes designed to handle up to 200 lbs of pressure, the system is robust and highly durable.

Dean explains the critical importance of getting the Geo loop installation right the first time, highlighting the consequences of errors and how they can lead to significant issues like baked soil, which impedes the system's efficiency. He demonstrates how the water in the pipes absorbs the ground’s cool temperature—around 58-60 degrees—and then returns this temperature to the condenser, enhancing the system's ability to cool the home efficiently.

Additionally, the video discusses the safeguarding measures in place, such as the soaker hose system. This setup is designed to prevent the potential overheating of the loop by allowing homeowners to easily hydrate the soil, ensuring the ground remains an effective conductor of temperature.

This geothermal system not only ensures a comfortable living environment but also significantly reduces energy costs and environmental impact. It's a smart investment for homeowners looking for sustainable and cost-effective solutions.
