Heat pump system: A. C. Davis High School
With the evidence of geothermal resources in the area of Davis High School, a study to heat the school using water-to-water heat pumps was made. Results of the study of the 7-building 179,100 square feet Yakima, Washington school are presented. Four water-to-water heat pumps, an underground water distribution system, and several new terminal units would be installed under the proposed design. The estimated capital cost of the new system is $830,000. Annual energy savings due to reduced natural gas purchases are expected to be about 200,000 therms/y. Availability of geothermal water, heating load calculations, the geothermal system, and modifications planned for the existing buildings are discussed. Details on the economics of the system are analyzed.
