In many nations, including Britain, the technology remains poorly understood and under used. This situation is about to change, however, with the UK market for ground source heat pumps growing at over 100% per annum.This book offers practical guidance and will equip engineers, planners and geologists with the fundamental skills to assess Ground source heat pump systemsGround source heat pump systems.551.015365697.7697/.7Banks David1961-324429MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996205895503316An introduction to thermogeology1972448UNISA
