How A Geothermal Aquifer Well Heats Your Pool
A geothermal aquifer well is an underground water source that supplies two natural resources: water and latent heat energy. In South Florida, the underground aquifers remain a constant 75 degrees year round. This consistent geothermal heat can be utilized by a water-source heat pump to heat swimming pool and spa water more economically than a gas-fired system. Typically, a geothermal swimming pool heater operates at 70 percent to 90 percent less expense than a gas heater. It produces heat entirely without combustion and its negative environmental side effects.
