Hello everyone!
A friend introduced me to an interesting heating technology today! Since we have a high groundwater level in our town (where I will be building my house next year – land already owned), his brother built his house using this exact heating method about five years ago. It works at a depth of around 7 meters (23 feet) with an average temperature of 15°C (59°F)! Until now, I was only familiar with deep drilling (70–100 meters / 230–330 feet) and surface collectors, but I had never heard or read about a system that uses groundwater until now. Why is that? Is it unprofitable (cost-benefit compared to other heating technologies), too expensive, or just not well known? At first glance, it sounds very interesting for me and my 400 m² (4,300 ft²) plot! What do you know about this heating technology?

Could this be expressed a bit more politely?It may be that my wording was a bit harsh here, I apologize, but I am correct on the matter.
I have noticed more frequently that inexperienced users ask questions, and other forum members give them even less qualified answers.
There are many topics one might not be familiar with, so questions are asked, even though it may be obvious that accurate or helpful answers are often not possible due to a lack of complete background knowledge about the individual case.
Nevertheless, incorrect answers are given by others, which only confuses the original posters even more, and that is unnecessary.
