    I may have misunderstood the question. I was talking about using heat generated naturally from within the Earth to heat your home, not what essentially equates to in floor heat, heated from a boiler.

    To do this you need to live somehwere like Iceland for what you are talking about. Actually Klamath Falls, Oregon has a lot geothermal heat in use. They heat the sidewalks to keep the snow melted.

    Appleseed, with the method you are talking about we now have 3 methods of heat being discussed in this thread:

    -Geothermal heat pumps: Using a heat pump with groundwater as the energy transfer source instead of air.

    -Outdoor wood stoves: A boiler system that burns wood to heat water which is then circulated through radiators in your house.

    -Groundwater circulation heat: Pumping water out of the ground and using with no temperature modification as a heat source through radiators in houses, loops under sidewalks, etc...

    Google. It's a cool thread though - I missed it the first time.
