Geothermal AC

[mbradshaw (Michael Bradshaw)]

I see no reason the AC of a geothermal system can’t be tested in low outside temperature conditions if all the mechanical components are inside of the home. True?

I only see one or two of these systems a year.

I tested one yesterday in heating and cooling mode (-5 outside).
It had a desuperheater installed with both pipes from the geo connected at the WH drain…
