Ground source heat pumps were a popular thing here for a while. Seem less popular now, probably because gas is so cheap.For that reason I went with a closed loop vertical well geothermal heat pump when I built my house 8 years ago. It’s always a balmy 54 degrees 100 feet underground winter or summer in my area. It’s more expensive to install but the 30% tax credit made it a wash.
my uncle has a lakefront place in NW Ontario, it has a heat pump. As it‘s Canadian Shield out there - Precambrian granite - his source is the lake. drilling isn’t really possible.
he is constantly fretting about the supplemental resistive heat coming on when not there, as hydro is very expensive in Ontario
