Geothermal Loop Installations

The horizontal ground loop is a very common type of loop installation in the northwest. Although most soils allow for this type of installation, some rocky areas do not. In this case we would typically try a vertical loop.

Vertical ground loops are typically the most expensive to install but take up the least amount of space. Vertical loops allow for a large project on a smaller piece of property.

Pond loops are an efficient loop choice and are typically cheaper to install. State legislation currently prohibits this type of installation in public waterways. We hope that the benefits of geothermal become too much to ignore and the legislation is changed in the near future.

Open ground loops operate at a slightly more efficient rate. The only draw back is the need for constant water supply and the water quality must be just right. In the right situation this is an excellent water source for your geothermal heat pump. There are some areas that currently do not allow for this type of installation.
