Did you know? 💡 An open-loop geothermal system uses groundwater from a well as the heat exchange fluid. After circulating through the system, the water is returned to the ground. This type of system can be highly efficient because it directly uses a renewable water source for heating and cooling, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution. #OGACanada #GeothermalEnergy #OpenLoopSystem #SustainableLiving #EnergyEfficiency #RenewableEnergy

Did you know? 💡 A closed-loop geothermal system circulates a mixture of water and antifreeze through a continuous loop of buried pipes, transferring heat between your home and the ground. This efficient system provides sustainable heating and cooling year-round, using the Earth's stable underground temperatures to reduce energy costs and environmental impact. #GeothermalEnergy #SustainableLiving #EnergyEfficiency #HeatingAndCooling
