How Ground Source Heat Pumps Work:
Principle: GSHPs exploit the thermal stability of the ground. Below the surface, the earth maintains a relatively constant temperature throughout the year, warmer than the air above it during winter and cooler in summer.
Process: In the winter, the GSHP extracts heat from the ground and transfers it into the building. During the summer, it reverses the process, removing heat from the building and transferring it back into the ground.
Key Components:
Heat Exchanger (Ground Loop): A system of pipes buried in the ground. These pipes are filled with a mixture of water and antifreeze which circulates and absorbs or dissipates heat.
Heat Pump Unit: Installed inside the building, this unit includes a compressor, a heat exchanger, and a pump. It concentrates the heat and transfers it to the building’s heating and hot water systems.
Types of Ground Source Heat Pumps:
Horizontal Systems: Involves burying pipe in trenches that are dug horizontally in the ground. Requires more land area but is generally less expensive to install than vertical systems.
Vertical Systems: Pipes are installed in deep vertical holes, which is ideal for properties with limited land area.
Pond/Lake Systems: If a body of water is available, pipes can be placed on the bottom of the water source. This method is generally more cost-effective than both horizontal and vertical systems.
Advantages of Ground Source Heat Pumps:
