Would you say the depth is below the frost line? Did you notice if they isulated the pipes?
It is below the frost line and the pipe was insulated. Once we get out of these terribly cold weather I would like to maybe disconnect the strips or such.
The company that did the actual sinking in the pond to house are considered the best in Indianapolis area--highly reputable. Thanks for the links, I'll be sure to go see what the thermostat one says that is different from the papers that came with it. I think all of you are giving me a wealth of information (that I'm trying to absorb). We knew when we put this geo in that it is a complex system to learn about and understand (and we are trying to). The HVAC company is reputable, our unit was an updated model. I read some notes they put on receipts and there was a note about the 'stat maybe not staging properly'. Mark did not ask him about that when he was here this past week to check why the lights were dimming (the tech was to get a hold of ClimateMaster). Huummmn? I think I will do some checking at the links you noted and makes some calls.
WOULD I RECOMMEND GEOTHERMAL? - You bet! It's nice to be warm, not worry about what the thermostat is on, and not have those $1,000 LP bills coming at me. No regrets, worth the up front costs--payback 5 years--well worth it and an investment in our home. I do appreciate all the info sharing; great site--this Pond Boss for my geo and pond information.
