r/geothermal↗

A subreddit focused on both geothermal and geoexchange systems, primarily for residential heating and cooling (e.g. ground source heat pumps). Larger projects and other methods of using the earth for heat exchange are welcome, though less likely to spark broader discussion. All civil discussions aren't just welcome but wanted.
