Bryan Drilling offers Geothermal Wells & Loop Installations in North & Central New Jersey.
What is a geothermal well: Similar to most other wells, a geothermal well is formed by drilling a large hole into the earth, typically at least 3 inches in diameter, until a specified depth is achieved that may provide sufficient geothermal energy to heat and cool the facility it will be installed in. Geothermal systems are intended to use the consistent temperature of the Earth’s subsurface in conjunction with a heat exchanger to add heat in the winter and remove heat in the summer.
Why is it essential: As the influence of energy use on climate change becomes increasingly apparent, the importance of locating sustainable and renewable energy sources rises. Geothermal energy, in particular, is a non-polluting and non-exhaustible form of energy, making it a great resource for people who desire heating and cooling without a carbon footprint.
Which geothermal design is right for you?
There are two basic geothermal designs to choose from:
Closed Loop:
The close loop system utilizes underground, continuous pipe loops filled with an antifreeze-like chemical. This facilitates the transfer of groundwater temperature to your thermal heat pump. Depending on the available space, close loop geothermal systems can be installed either vertically or horizontally.
Vertical ground loops are the most prevalent type of geothermal closed loop system because they require the least amount of space to construct. During your free estimate, our staff will assist you in determining which type of closed loop system is optimal for your home.
The other kind of closed loop system is a horizontal loop. The advantage is that it does not require deep drilling, but it requires more land. Installation may be less expensive because a drill rig may not be necessary.
Open Loop:
The use of underground continuous pipe loops containing an antifreeze-like chemical is required for an open loop system. This facilitates the transfer of groundwater temperature to your thermal heat pump. Depending on the available space, close loop geothermal systems can be installed either vertically or horizontally.
Vertical ground loops are the most prevalent type of geothermal closed loop system because they require the least amount of space to construct. During your free estimate, our staff will assist you in determining which type of closed loop system is optimal for your home.
The other kind of closed loop system is a horizontal loop. The advantage is that it does not require deep drilling, but it requires more land. Installation may be less expensive because a drill rig may not be necessary.
How do Geothermal Loops Work?
One of these loop fluids circulates through the ground loop tubing to absorb ground heat. Geothermal systems have numerous benefits, including energy efficiency, cost savings, and environmental advantages.
