What is a geothermal heat pump?<\/h4><\/i><\/div>

The most important part in a shallow geothermal system is the geothermal heat pump. We could relate it to the refrigerators or air conditioners we have in our homes and it consists of 4 elements: evaporator, compressor, condenser and expansion element. The geothermal heat pump (heat pump) works like water pumps, only it lifts, instead of water, thermal energy. That is, it draws energy from a space (eg temperature 4\u00baC) and transfers it to another with a higher temperature (eg 35\u00baC). Unlike conventional systems, geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) do not burn fossil fuels to produce heat. They consume minimal electrical energy which is rendered 4-5 times more upgraded as thermal energy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

What is open loop geo-exchangers?<\/h4><\/i><\/div>

Open loop earth exchanger systems are indicated in areas with a shallow water table depth and include two wells, one production in which the submersible pump is immersed and one reintroduction with a distance between them of >5m. In cases where the proximity to the sea or to the lake is such that it allows its use, the pumping of fluid is done with a simple underwater pumping assembly, the water is supplied and withdrawn from the heat pump through a plate heat exchanger that is either stainless steel or titanium being disassembled.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
