This system is advertised today as a geothermal heat pump, suggesting that it uses the searing heat of the earth’s mantle, which is many miles below the surface. Actually, the GSHP uses solar energy, stored in the earth’s crust, in water that was heated by the sun before leaking down into the earth.
