How DX Geothermal Works (And how it compares to a standard Geothermal System)

DX geothermal, direct exchange geothermal. What is it and what are the pros and cons of direct exchange compared to regular geothermal systems? That’s what we’ll cover in this video. I recently got an email inquiry about DX geothermal, direct exchange geothermal: "...We are struggling to decided between an ASHP system and DX geothermal system for a retrofit. ..." I dug deeper and this is what I found. We'll discuss the pros and cons of using copper with a refrigerant vs. the regular water wells with common HDPE, high density polyethylene. Enjoy!
