I understand the difference between the amount of heat exchanged in open vs closed loop systems - I've monitored the temp of water and it turns...
I am sure you are correct, but it still saves me up to $200 a month. That's why I was hoping to set up a more efficient closed loop system - even...
You are correct, even though doing it in this manner does save me up to $200 a month over conventional HVAC. That's precisely the reason I am...
So there's no pump that can service a closed loop as effectively as my well pump? I find that hard to believe - and it's 1" from my well.
I probably gain quite a bonus in heat exchange due to the large reservoir in my wells (6" bored filled with a minimum of 200" of ground temp...
Very useful reference - thank you. Couple of questions: Friction would apply the entire length of the pipe whether ascending or descending into...
I appreciate your help, but flow rate is directly analogous to velocity....
Well, I guess I wasn't clear. I currently have an open loop system, but can readily convert back to closed loop - THAT is what I'm looking for...
I'm not sure I understand fluid dynamics fully, but wouldn't any head due to the depth of the wells be negated by the mass of the water in the...
Already run as 1" line, that isn't going to be changed. Minimal pipe inside the house. Distance between the 2 wells ~500', one of which is 50'...
Would this layout provide any greater flow [ATTACH] rate? I thought the 1" inlet of my geocool would be a rate(flow) limiting step.
26-99 pumps, but not using them, only using the well pumps - even with the wasted energy on extra pumping power we save $2-300 a month on...
I have a geocool CFX060 that runs great. No kidding, it's been a tremendous boon for our home. But I want to do better. I would love to hear...
If they're paying sure. Otherwise keep your existing system, separate the garage and run your 2 new wells to it on a separate geo system....
