Our Geothermal Heat System

Though not strictly plumbing, I am having a geothermal heat system installed at our house in New York State. We have two wells drilled in the front yard, each 300 feet deep. The top 48 feet had to have casing, the rest of the well is thru bedrock, 250+ feet. It did rain during the process, but we also hit water at a couple of different times.

First well installed with tubing brought up above grade.  Tubing and casing will be cut down to 4 feet below grade










 After the second well was drilled.  Mud is from the 300 foot wells, and water is from water encountered below ground while drilling
