Common Questions About Geothermal in Lombard, Illinois

• Can I install geothermal in my Lombard home if I have limited yard space?

  Yes. Geothermal Drilling Solutions specializes in vertical loop installation inside basements, slab-on-grade structures, and garages with a minimum 7-foot ceiling height, requiring as little as 30 inches of yard access for exterior drilling. This makes geothermal viable for homes and businesses in space-constrained urban areas where traditional installation was previously impossible.

• What makes the RIGINABOX™ drilling system different from conventional geothermal drilling?

  The RIGINABOX™ is a third-generation, one-person operable, 100% electric-driven modular drilling rig that can operate inside structures and requires only a 60-amp single-phase electrical panel. It eliminates the need for diesel or gas fuel, delivers superior loop temperatures compared to exterior installations, reduces landscape disruption, and minimizes project construction delays.

• How does drilling geothermal loops inside a Lombard basement improve efficiency?

  Under-structure loop installation provides superior loop temperatures compared to exterior fields. Warmer loop temperatures in winter require less antifreeze and pump power, making geothermal equipment more efficient while also keeping landscaping undisturbed and allowing other trades to use yard space for equipment storage.

• What are the cost advantages of RIGINABOX™ installation in Illinois?

  The system reduces installation costs through operational efficiencies, shorter drilling timelines, and the elimination of fuel expenses. Since drilling occurs after the first floor deck (or second floor in slab-on-grade) is installed, it does not delay overall project construction.
