Bump a hole a mile deep and get water @55F.

They're talking about 176F. Superheated.

The last one I saw go down in Salem Massachusetts, nearly a mile came up superheated to 55F. Maybe I am wrong and it was 155F.. The designated hundred gallon gas boiler system to handle the water from the geothermal unit makes me think otherwise.

Call that guy Neil Chayett(SP) on his “looking at the law” radio show, it was his house.

What I was told was the water is warm enough to prevent your pipes from freezing in the winter, and cool enough to ac the house in summer. All free, after the 20k hole is paid off.

To be superheated it would have to be over 212 degrees F.

Superheated means that the water has been heated above the boiling point for water at a given pressure.
