    Anyone know where to get (a) information and (b) a system to gain geothermal energy from water - especially seawater?

    The two issues that spring to mind here are the corrosive nature of seawater [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrificial_anode] and the tendency for all sorts of crap to grow on the pipes which will impair the heat transfer.

    Having said that it would be ideal for AC in the summer.

    I dont see how the principle can be any different that the normal.

    How far from the sea are u and is the location tidal?
