I spoke today with a drilling company that carried out a deep drilling in our village a year ago. They cannot understand at all that we received the information from the GU installer that drilling may not go deeper than 30m. Regarding this, I have now called the Lower Water Authority, who immediately said that in other districts there are such restrictions, but apparently not in our district. However, that was not the final caseworker. I was asked to submit the cadastral map with our property, and then they will send me an official response. The drilling company is so confident that this will work that they will also send me an offer by tomorrow. They spoke of about 170 drilling meters if drilling down to 100m is allowed. The yield would also be sufficient for that. And then, if things don’t go completely wrong, we should be able to manage with the originally planned €15,000 drilling costs and could stick to the original plan.
The question is now being investigated as to who told the installer that drilling was only allowed to 30m depth.
Let’s hope it will turn out that way, because the geothermal heat pump is presumably undisputedly the best option.
