Ground Loop Options
Straight Ground Loops
Ideally the ground loop consists of a single straight out and return line. However, it often consists of several loops brought together with a manifold and as seen from the graphic above it doesn't necessarily have to be straight either!Slinky Ground loops
"Slinky" ground loops are usually specified as it reduces the amount of land needed, however, where a large amount of land is easily available straight trenches can also be used.
A loop is created, this means energy is absorbed from a smaller area and it's therefore important to know how to plan and install these so as not to deplete the stored heat within the ground.
A high level of knowledge is required to correctly size this type of installation for different soil types, Ice Energy has installed over 1000 slinky installations with great success.
