Vertical Bore Hole Loop Ground Source Heat Pumps

Bore holes are dug into the ground, normally around 90 metres deep. It is common to have two bore holes dug to supply one home. The holes are roughly 200mm wide and must be kept at least eight metres apart from each other. A loop is lowered into the borehole with a weight to ensure it reaches the bottom of the hole. The hole is then backfilled with a grout mixture which allows easy heat transfer from ground to pipe. The loop is linked back to the ground source heat pump unit in your home.
