Geothermal probes Zurich

Ecosens AG was able to carry out the hydrogeological investigations for the site development, including the dimensioning of the geothermal probe field in accordance with the current SIA 384/6 standard. For an optimized dimensioning of the geothermal heating system with heating and cooling, a geothermal probe drilling including a thermal response test was carried out. The aim of these investigations is to take into account the local geology and its properties for the optimized dimensioning of the heating system. The local underground temperature, the different thermal conductivities of the rock layers and groundwater-bearing layers have a major influence on the final number of meters of borehole required for the geothermal probe field.
