Geothermal dig, pipe fusion, and backfill

Geothermal dig, pipe fusion, and backfill - I show the whole process of the loop field installation. Excavation was done with my Kubota KX080, we placed the slinky loops and fused welded all the connections.

Thanks man
Very cool. Some bigger equipment could’ve knocked that out a lot faster, but I know how that goes.
How do you distribution the cool air into the house. There is a pipe in every room? And how hot air is exchange indoors? Sorry by my English, I from Brasil and my house is about today in 40⁰ degrees incide. Please help me.
It always matters & is necessary to use the proper equipment for compaction as well as doing the proper depth lift for the method used along with targeting optimum moisture for material... 😂
That’s a lot of material…3 days?

Took 6 days, 2 days to excavate, 2 days to install the field, and 2 days to back fill and grade
Why you didn’t post the next steps in the build
20 years to break even hummmmm

That HVAC tech who designed and installed the interior equipment said it should take 7 years to re cope the investment
Gravel & sand are absolutely horrible conductors of heat. You are literally laying it on top of rock after saying you dont want any rock. SMH

You should double check that but about sand. Sand is an incredible conductor of heat after enough heat has been introduced due to its insulating properties. I believe it’s the Indian Coffee that’s famous for brewing the coffee in a brass cup moving it around in a heated pan filled with sand. Boiling the water instantly and making the coffee. I can’t speak on gravel, but sand is definitely a great conductor given the proper applications.
the upfront cost of geothermal, will never justify the fact you have geothermal heating and cooling , whoever sold these people on this lied about the return in value , its 20 years , and by that time your waterfurnace will have been replaced and or compressor changed out , its a shitty way to heat a residential home . i would have put in a mitsubishi ducted hyperheat system , saved them probably 15k , and they would have had the same capacity during winter and summer .

We're learning about these systems in my trade school rn lol. What's your preference for residential? Natural gas, electric, or oil fueled?
