How Deep Does a Ground Source Heat Pump Need to Be?

When installing a ground source heat pump (GSHP), one of the key factors to consider is the depth of the ground loop. The exact depth depends on various factors, including the heat demand of the property, the type of ground loop (horizontal or vertical), and the ground conditions.

For horizontal ground loops, which are laid in trenches, the pipes are typically installed at a depth of 1-2 meters. This method requires more land space, as the pipes are spread out over a larger area, but it is more cost-effective for properties with ample space.

For vertical ground loops, boreholes are drilled to much greater depths, typically ranging from 50 to 200 meters. This method is ideal for properties with limited land space but requires more specialized equipment and higher installation costs.
