Closed-loop ground source heat pump systems in schools

ASHRAE recently featured a cursory review of Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) systems in schools. According the U.S. Department of Energy, Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) systems reduce energy use by 25% to 50% in schools, compared to traditional systems, and result in typical payback periods of eight years. The full article was originally published in the September 2007 edition of ASHRAE Journal. Click here to download the full article for free. After Nov. 12, this article will remain available for free download by ASHRAE Members here and for purchase by nonmembers in the ashrae.org bookstore.
