Groundwater Influence on Geothermal HVAC Deployment

Presented on Monday, April 29, 2013

In most parts of the US, HDPE closed loop systems have served as an acceptable compromise between groundwater protection and HVAC geothermal energy storage. This session provides an update on this tradeoff with respect to emerging material and loop design and installation improvements.
