    First

    Thing is find a contractor , the heat pump is the heart of the system for cooling where the Geo thermal is the lungs and arteries.



    Gets a little more complicated then that.



    As a rule of thumb for every ton of cooling you have to dig a well 100 feet, or have 200 feet of piping 100 ft each way.

    Lots of times this requires some engineering skills.

    Montana Water:

    If you are considering Geo-Thermal in Montana, be sure you consider the quality of the ground water, Some areas of Montana have some serious ground water quality issues that can severely effect the heat transfer abilities of the HX'ers.
