Geothermal Maintenance 101 - Heat of extraction / rejection

The first thing a geothermal maintenance technician should is how to complete heat of extraction / rejection. This test will allow you to properly confirm that a geothermal system is performing properly. With this simple process you can confirm that the system is running at peak performance during a maintenance while also preserving the systems life by not introducing contaminants to the refrigeration system.
