Geothermal Heat Pumps
A Proven Renewable Energy Technology
While Earthtravels through Space…
47% of the solar energy falling on our planetis absorbed by the Earth’s surface…
… maintaining a nearly constant temperaturethroughout the year just below ground
US Deep Ground Temperatures
Geothermal Heat PumpBasic PrinciplesBasic Principles
The Earth is the Source ofHeat in Winter…
Outdoor airdesign temperature:-5°F72°F72°F
50°F
A geothermal heat pump transfers undergroundheat into the building to provide heating
…and an Efficient Place toReject Heat in Summer…
Outdoor airdesign temperature:95°F74°F74°F
50°F
A geothermal heat pump transfers heat fromthe building into the ground to provide cooling
…using Heat Pump Technology
A geothermal heat pumpcirculates water through asealed underground piping loopwhere it is naturally warmed (orcooled) by the earth
Geothermal Heat Pump Efficiency
1 kWh of energyfrom the grid Yields:
4-6 kWh of energyfor the building
Plus:3-5 kWh of energy
from the earth
for the building
400-600% Efficient(COP of 4-6)

Geothermal Heat PumpInstallation MethodsInstallation Methods
Vertical Closed-Loop
A pair of pipes with a special U-bend assembly at thebottom is placed into bore holes from 100 to 400 feet deep
Horizontal Closed-Loop
A piping array is installed in trenches cut 3 to 5 feetdeep and hundreds of feet in length
Surface Water Closed-Loop
A piping array is submerged in a pondor lake at least 8 feet deep
Ground WaterOpen-Loop
Well water from an underground aquifer ispumped through the geothermal heatpump and then returned to the aquifer ordischarged to the surface
