hello everyone
ok recently drilled a water well on home farm, anyway had to go down a long way (400ft) but hit a big supply of water, its been flowing freely and at some volume from that depth out the top of the well since i drilled it, Im planning to get a guy to fit a pump etc in shortly..anyway a few people have been saying to me that I should consider using it for heat exchange system, sorry if im phrasing that incorrectly but i dont really know anything about that heating type system, the water from the well must definately be higher temp than whats above ground as these frosty mornings you can see steam around the top of the well as the water is coming out..I suppose im loking to find out a bit more about the technology, could the well be used for a heating system and could it still be used as a water source or has it to be either or? any info appreciated
thanks
