Vertical Geothermal Ground Loops:
Vertical loops are the best and sometimes the only geo choice if you have: limited space, rocky terrains, extreme temperatures, or retrofits. These are more expensive than horizontal loops. The good news isit uses less pipe, and it is a more stable system, because the underground temperature is more constant at deeper depths. . Thank goodness for an area of earth not intensely heated by the magma layer of the earth or the outdoor temperature. A drilling rig is used to bore 150 to 300 foot deep holes in to the ground. After which, pipe is looped into the whole and grouted. A typical system requires 300 to 600 feet of piping per ton of heating and cooling.
