I'm looking for suggestions on what pump to use to circulate water through my geo-thermal cooling.
Here's the plan. 200 feet of 3/4" pvc buried 4' underground. The drop from the sump to the ground is about 4', so there will be an 8' drop and 200 foot loop returning back to the sump. The pump will be controlled by a Ranco digital controller. It needs to circulate 800 to 1000 gallons per hour. I know that sounds like alot, but by the end of July we will have 465 gallons on the system and plan to add another 270 early next year. Also, I would like this to be an external pump to help alleviate additional heat from the pump.
Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.
