Basic components of a water-water & combo geothermal heat pump system.
Tips on proper installation of a hydronic geothermal system
Limitations of a hydronic geothermal system
Some design considerations of the system Piping options for the load side Control options for the hydronic system
What are we going to cover?
![Page 8: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Design water temp won’t heat space.◦ Insulation generally is the culprit
Heat pump is locking out on HP.◦ Waterflow, Waterflow, Waterflow!◦ To much load side antifreeze?◦ Controls, Controls, Controls!
High bill complaints.◦ Low loop temps, could be a multitude of reasons!◦ Running system at max 120F temps all season.
Design of the system must meet the expectations of the customer, and it is your job to install and verify your system will do the job!
What have the problems been?
![Page 9: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What will be my design max water temp? What will be my design min water temp? Will I have a supplemental or backup
system?◦ If so, how will it be piped and controlled?
What is the heat distribution system?◦ High mass floors - concrete◦ Low mass floors – staple up◦ Radiation – high or low temp
Am I doing chilled water for cooling? Do I have areas that need antifreeze? Who is doing the insulation? What is it? What type of floor coverings do I have?
Questions to ask yourself?
![Page 10: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Doing an accurate load calculation is priority number 1 including radiant design!
This will dictate your supply water temp and flow rates of the system.
Knowing the building materials, insulation values, floor coverings, etc. is critical.
Jobsite verification of building materials and insulation practices (pictures, pictures)
This all goes into a successful installation and a happy customer with low energy costs!
Proper design starts with Loads!

Radiant floor tube spacing at 9” o.c. min. Do not mix more than 25% glycol antifreeze
on load side of heat pump (preferably 0%) Flow rate through each radiant floor loop to
be between .50gpm and .75gpm Pipe sizing is critical; flow = BTU’s Variable Speed pumps & zone valves! Insulation values, floor coverings, flow
rates, tube sizes, etc. all factor in to calculating system design!

Water-to-Water Heat Pumps
• Energy obtained from or rejected to a ground-coupled source (closed-loop)
• Utilized to make domestic hot water
• Utilized for hot water hydronic systems
• Utilized for chilled water hydronic systems
• Optional desuperheaters
![Page 22: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Combination Heat Pump (Triple Function)
• Energy obtained from or rejected to a ground-coupled source (closed-loop)
• Utilized for hydronic heating applications (no chilled water )
• Utilized to heat or cool air in forced air applications
• Packaged system• Optional Desuperheater

Typical Water-Water System
Load Side
W2W Unit
Source Side
We are going to focus on the Load Side of the System!
![Page 24: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ALL heat pump hydronic systems require a buffer tank (well almost ALL).◦ “Decouples” floor pumping and unit flow
requirements.◦ Usually 1 gallon per 1,000 Btuh
In most cases, controls are the most difficult part of the installation.◦ Know what you’re getting into!
Design systems for max. water temps of 120F or less for compressor life and efficiency!
Load-side “Guidelines”
![Page 25: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
V = T x (Qhp – Qload)/Delta T x 500
V = VolumeT = Desired minimum run time (minutes)Qhp = HP CapacityQload = Heat flow to load when HP is onDelta T = Differential set point (10F)
Example = 5 x (52,000 - 0)/10 x 500 = 52
Buffer Tank Sizing
![Page 26: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The capacity of the heat pump and depending on the control strategy will determine the amount of storage needed.
Hot tank – single set point◦ Usually 10 gallons/ton or 1gal/1000btu’s
Demand controlled – single set point◦ Usually 6 gallons/ton or 1gal/1500btu’s
Combo units buffer should be smaller! Example = 5-ton (52MBH + hot tank)
◦ 5-tons x 10gal/ton = 50gal or 52,000btu/1000= 52gal
Buffer Tank Sizing
![Page 27: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Both Source Side and Load Side Coaxial heat exchangers are typically identical◦ Pressure drop ratings are the same◦ Flow rates on the load side should be roughly
the same as the source side 2.5-3 gpm per ton
Connection size doesn’t always mean pipe size (unit or pump flange)
Load-side “Guidelines”
![Page 28: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Hydronic radiant systems depend on supplemental heat source:◦ No supplemental heat – up size loop◦ Direct supplemental heat – same as W/A◦ Indirect supplemental heat – up size loop
Combo unit systems:◦ 100% radiant – size as you normally would depending
on supplemental heat source◦ Some radiant & some F/A – up size loop
Hydronic systems will need more loop based on the mass of the system vs. heating air!
Loop Field Sizing “Guidelines”
![Page 29: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Ground Source Heat Pumps using R-410a refrigerant typically can only achieve a maximum load side temperature of 120F ELT. This prohibits the use of this technology with other forms or hydronic heating such as radiators and/or sometimes baseboard radiation.◦ There are new low temp baseboard radiators
available that will heat at lower than 120F!
GSHP Max Load Side Temp
![Page 30: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
![Page 31: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Design the GSHP system to utilize the lowest water temps possible for proper space heating and highest system efficiency!Things to consider: - Tube spacing/sizing - Flow rates - Insulation - Floor coverings
![Page 32: Hopefully so you dont end up with something like this!](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/5519962f5503463d068b4800/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
With the COP of the HP going up as the load water design temp goes down, outdoor reset makes sense as a recommended control strategy.
Outdoor reset control will vary the design load temperature based on outdoor temperature. The colder the outside temp, the warmer the load temp.
This maximizes the COP of the system.

W2W units have lower EER’s than Water-Air heat pumps
Be careful of sensible cooling capacities of the air handler or water coils – do not size strictly based on tonnage
All piping with chilled water needs to be insulated including pumps
Buffer tank must be insulated and have an air seal to prevent condensation
Advantage – one unit vs. two units
Chilled Water vs. DX Cooling

Design the system properly, not using Btu’s per sqft, but rather good design practices.
Insulation is a huge factor along with thermal breaks, if you aren’t doing it, verify it is done right!
Select the proper control strategy for the application, buy off the shelf vs. build your own so anyone can service and troubleshoot!
