Looking at a closed loop system and one that pumps from a well into a dry well.

Each has their advantages.

So is this control ground water levels so that you do not have a lake for your yard or for some other reason. I am not familiar with the systems.

It takes the ground water from a well which in our area maintains a temp year round of about 60deg and uses for heat and cooling.

The closed system uses a sealed tubing to go between sever wells without pumping any water. But once you use that system, it takes some time for the ground water temp to get back to normal.

With the other system, it actually pumps the water from the well thru the system and back to a dry well to be absorbed in the ground. No discharge on top of the ground.

Of course, I'm not really invading. I'm more of an insurgent, since I'm here everyday.

Oh.... why did you not say a geo-thermal system. Around here ground water is normally around 50*.
