ABSTRACT:
A heating and cooling system utilizing solar, or other energy, includes a solar heat collector having fluid ducts connected to the lower portion of a buried fluid thermal unit, which transfers collected heat to an underground storage area. The thermal unit provides fluid convection flow between portions of the unit surrounded by lower and upper heat transfer jackets. A heat pump, installed in a building to be heated or cooled, has ducts for selectively circulating fluid between the heat pump and the upper and lower heat transfer jackets of the buried thermal unit. In another embodiment of the system one or more thermal units are provided with only lower heat transfer jackets. Such thermal unit would be useful in heating the earth surrounding the buried thermal units, and particularly useful in thawing frozen ground.
