Westfall Medical Center Geothermal Loopfield

Commercial Geothermal Heat Pump Loopfield Lateral Tie In Project

As sustainable heating and cooling options like geothermal heat pumps are growing in popularity, we are seeing the decline in use of traditional fossil fuel systems as a part of new-build commercial (and residential!) construction.

Let’s dive deep into one of our most recent projects to explore the system being installed and the benefits the developers will see long term!

Project: Westfall Medical Center, Brighton New York
Scope: Geothermal Loopfield Installation Tie-In
Narrative: The property has had the long-term intentions to install a geothermal heating and cooling system. Years ago, before the present project was started, there were (8) 500′ geothermal wells drilled to support the previously standing building’s heating and cooling system. When new tenants decided to take over the project, a complete tear-down of the structure began and thus plans to install a new geothermal heat pump system including the existing geothermal wells. ACES was contracted by DGA Builders in Victor New York to complete the project.

Geothermal Lateral Piping

On-site there had been existing geothermal wells that had been previously drilled that were not in use. Our task was to tie these geothermal wells into the building to allow for water to flow between the wells and the geothermal equipment indoors. This requires excavation and installation of the lateral piping system.

Manifold Installation

To connect the exterior geothermal wells to the interior geothermal heat pump equipment, a manifold that collects and distributes the geothermal loopfield water to the interior components is installed.

Updates coming soon when the flushing and filling of the loopfield is completed!
