An existing house that converted its garage into a heat source to fully meet its heating and cooling needs. The geoexchanger circuit will be connected to a Water Furnace heat pump NSKW  to provide heating and cooling to the residence.  The closed Loop Geothermal Systems compare with Open Loop   They do not require a water source as they use a closed water circuit. They do not require frequent maintenance as they do not come into contact with any external factor (external weather conditions-water quality in the aquifer). Their operation is almost silent. They have a long lifespan (heat pump over 20 years while the borehole heat exchanger is for life spans)   Our company fully undertakes the installation process of closed-Loop Geothermal systems in Crete, having certification for the installation from the International Ground Source Heat Pump (IGSHPA)   Organization:https://igshpa.org/individual/andreas-koutelidakhs/   Whelve Energy:https://whelveenergy.gr/ Location: Kolymvari Chania Closed Loop Geothermal System

With this article we want to highlight the benefits of Geothermal utilization on tourism sector in island of Crete and beyond.Mr. Serhat Ünaldi originally from Germany decided to establish a prototype Boutique hotel, energy fully autonomous based on the development of sustainable tourism in South Rethymno. The hotel will implement a closed loop Geothermal system which will fully cover the building’s Heating-Cooling loads as well as part of the Hot Water needs.The climate prevailing in the area is characterized by hot with very strong winds. Geothermal energy as a renewable energy source takes advantage of the constant temperature of the subsoil offering an annual energy saving of 50% compared to an Air source heat pump. Also, the Geothermal heat pump during the cooling operation, recovering the heat loads before disposing of them underground, helps in the production of Domestic Hot Water. Thus, in combination with Photovoltaics, they transform the building

Our company participated in the construction of closed loop geothermal system with verticalplacement of Geoexchanger for the energy upgrade of the Indoor Gymnasium.Project description: The Ground Source Heat Pump system (Geothermal) will cover the needs of the building inHeating/Cooling and Hot Water generation.

Thermal Response Test (TRT) represents a method of evaluating the thermal properties of the subsoil, the most important of which are: Thermal Response Test Equipment There are two modes of operation of the equipment in the thermal response test to shed or extract heat from or to the borehole heat exchanger under test. This is accomplished by circulating a fluid through the borehole that is warmer during the injection process and cooler during the extraction process than the surrounding soil. The image below shows a classic equipment layout (TRT). Operating principle Thermal Response Test First of all , the undisturbed soil temperature is determined, by recording the temperature at the surface of the borehole or by evaluating the temperature of the liquid circulating in the geoexchanger before activating the cooling or heating. The term thermal response is defined as the measured change in the average temperature of the inlet and
