Working with your sons is the best feeling in the world when it comes to spending time with them. They learn what their dad does and it's productive and quality time spent.
I use to think I was one smart cookie when I was responsible for repairing and maintaining IBM computers and related peripheals back in the 60's, 70's and 80's. But you my friend have me by a mile. I am very impressed to see how you have this system understood and dialed in. I have enjoyed this whole process of building your house. I also really enjoy your repair videos. I know this has been a huge undertaking on your part but I know I can speak for others and say thank you for keeping us in the process.
thank you
I'm a retired roofer in the UK and I know nothing about geothermals but I do know a heck of a lot of plumbers/heating engineers and I've never heard a bad word said about Grundfos pumps so I think you made the right choice there, they're quality kit. Cracking video, as usual, loved every minute of it.
Yes, they are built like tanks and last almost forever. Grundfos is based in Denmark and is the biggest provider (50% worldwide)of this kind of circulation pumps.
In Norway Grundfos pums are the industry standard and we have some harsh climate 😅
@@mvasilyeu4116 And again in English, please!
I know nothing about geothermal energy and yet
I watched this video with the greatest attention !
You know how to simplify something complicated.
I can only imagine the work involved, not to mention the video editing !
More than 2 hours that I didn't see go by.
Thanks Jesse. 👍

I have some of those air purge valves in my system too. They are simple in how they work. There's a float in there, and when they are full of water the float rises and closes the valve. When air collects inside the cup, the float falls and the valve opens letting the air out. Pretty clever little things.
You know you’ve done good when John from farm craft likes your choices in valves, and seals 🦭
I want spacers between the coils. Why not 200 individual coils in contact with the pond water instead of four large ones?
I appreciate your videos. You’re a skilled problem solver and I have learned from you. Your boys are adorable and I can see you are raising them to be strong capable men some day!
I LOVE how detailed you are! Thank you for being that guy, who couldn't find it, and makes a super detailed video about it, for the rest of us!
I’ve been a commercial electrician for 16yrs, they got rid of these hammer drills/macho, before i started at my company. But the older guys told me stories about the old macho drill, we use to have. They said a lot of ppl use to get injured, especially if you were drilling, and your body was stuck in an awkward position. When the hole saw would get bound up, on something like some rebar, the entire drill would start spinning. So the handle use to smack ppl in the face, and the most common injury was ppl messing up their wrist, holding on. It had to be a damaged drill that they kept using. I can’t even see them back in the day, not having a clutch, or whatever they use today that prevents it from happening.
I use to help my dad alot when he worked for PORTLAND GENERAL ELECTRIC back in the 50'S. We absolutely had some big drills that could torque your wrists in a loop. I was in grade school then and I learned alot of painful lessons back then.
Oh man I used to retrofit security systems in houses back in the 80’s-90’s and we were Drilling Specialists. I’ve seen accidents that would gag a billygoat. We used high power drills with 6’ Diversa bit w/ 6’ exts, big bellhanger bits and all types of hole saws.
The biggest problem running high powered drills is that you can’t make yourself turn loose of it. It’s sorta like a motorcycle throttle. You just keep making it worse the longer you hang on but you cannot let go either because you know the drill is going to spin and beat you to death. I have seen many broken wrists, teeth getting knocked out. I even saw one guy lose control of his drill and his ponytail got wrapped up in the chuck. It literally scalped the guy all the way to his skull.
Such a tender moment. At 42:50 i've never seen a boy who loves his father so much, he wants to help and be around dad, doesn't matter what he's doing, he just wants to be part of it. The love and happiness of this special moment in time, brings a tear to my eye. When there's so much hate in the world right now, i need to watch video's of Jesse and his family together to remind me that there's still hope for humanity. It's people like you Jesse that makes the world go around and a better place to live in. Thank/you Jesse.🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂.
Thank you
Jesse, in the past when I've had to drill holes like that near the ground, a way to take some strain off you that I utilized in the past is to drive a 2x4 stake or something of the sort into the ground and then take a squeeze clamp that you can flip around to the configuration where it becomes a spreader clamp and I push on the back of the drill and the stake and that makes the drilling effortless and it will drill so quick it'll amaze you.
The same technique works in reverse anytime you need to drill a big hole in something you can get a squeezy clamp around the drill and the material instead of having to push on the back of the drill, let the clamp squeeze the drill into the material.
that makes sense, thanks for letting me know
What a great idea! Saw similar on the pakistani truck channel when they drill holes in truck frames
Noah is stealing the show! Always enjoy the videos because I raised two boys on my own and watching takes me to a very happy place!
Initially above my pay grade but so very well detailed and explained that I began to comprehend it. I also compliment you on project planning, filming, and editing. 👍👍👍
Never thought this system would be so complicated.
Well done.
My tip of trick of the day : Always spray WD-40 on tools that are in water to keep like new. Enjoy your channel always looking forward to learning from you. Be Safe
Thoroughly enthralling to watch and know, and totally impressed.
This build will be viewed as a benchmark for the future.
Excellent work
Thank you
Fabulous video!
It's refreshing to watch a DIY channel that does all the necessary research and planning rather than those that pride themselves in winging it and let's try this way approach. Your channel has much fewer rebuild or startover moments that take many times longer than what would have been spent doing proper prior planning.
Assuming he's publishing everything to RUclips.
I'm amazed at this. You don't see systems like this in New Zealand
Cool to see! We in (the Netherlands) drill holes in the earth max 150meters. For water to water heating systems. Already do so for 25+ years and we are very happy with the results. Of course also have one at our home especially the cooling is nice in the summer! Not comparable to an airco system
Ps: the big benefit with water to water systems is have a constant temperature when using a well system. At 100meter deep is always +-12 degree celsius. When using air to air (air-conditioning) or air to water (floor heating) you don't have the 13 degrees in winter. A air to air heating system is no wizard so its CP wil drop allot and it will use much more energy than a water to water system.
Thanks Jesse, I've been wanting to learn more about water to water geothermal. You explain your projects so well.
Someday maybe 🙏I will have one! I'm just finishing a 10 KW solar system.
You have some of the best how to videos, thank you so much for sharing, I enjoy all your videos.
Love your videos,,,I may not understand all of your wiring but I'm glad you do.😊 Thanks Jesse and family.
I never ever saw a builder so detailed and thorough with a ton of pride in his work like you. Its refreshing to see even when its not your own project the care you take. Do it right the first time. I admire your skill and knowledge sir. Well done.
The way you explain explained and show how it works in very understandable better than any RUclips video iv have watched I really learned a lot thanks for the video looking forward for the next episode.
Kind regards from London England UK.
It was great working with you on this project.
I am very skeptical about this geothermal heating system, Very curious to see how it is snowing and cold. Thank you for sharing! 👍
They function well, since water at the bottom of a pond/lake/ocean is usually 4ºC/39ºF as that's the most dense temperate for water, so water that's colder or hotter rises. If you push heat into the water, that water will float. If you pull heat out of water, it'll also float.
If the pond is too small it is possible for it to free. Similarly in summer it could get too warm. It shouldn't be a problem where they live in New York as they don't get extreme cold or heat.
Jesse being with your boys is a blessing. They will never forget.
I was wondering what happened to that loop you made!
It makes my day when you upload Jesse, I love these long vids.
I honestly understand almost nothing about what you just did or explained however, you kept me entertained for two hours...LOL. Great job as always 👍
Great project! From the special pond to the mechanical room. I did all my own rough utility work and can appreciate the scale of this.
I used ICF too, and preferred to have it all covered up asap. UV and incidental contact take their toll on the foam.
Jesse - Thank you for this video and all your vids as I know the trouble you go through in just positioning the camera's for all the different shots. Shots and explanations as to want you are doing - great!!!
Hi, Great video. You may want to add a second circulating pump just in case. Just wire and pum it ,but do not use it. It will save you if the main pump gose down. In the winter. Lookig forward to the next part of your install. GOOD JOB.
As always, you are completely understandable and thorough. I appreciate you. 😊
You lost me after the first 30 seconds but I thoroughly enjoyed the remaining 2:18:03. Thank god that there are people like you out there that do understand it all.😮
It is alot to understand but if you are interested enough you will eventually start understanding anything that you put your focus on
Man put on your thinking cap - that's a lot of forethought and problem solving~! Impressive Jesse!
That drill is a dream machine! It outperforms any other drill I've seen at less than $10,000... period.
bluerock? yea they are surprisingly good, wish I would have known about them years ago
GREAT interview. Thanks to Dave for doing it and thanks to you for putting it on RUclips.
seems like a lot of work, Thank God yall have all the equipment and kids to help. We are looking forward to seeing how efficient this system is for your home, Great job sharing with us here on our little city homestead, Thanks🙂💯👍
This is the part IV been most exciting to see how it turns out and working practices
A 2 hour video! Nice! Good for some Sunday afternoon watching! Thanks!
Great to see all your progress. We hope to start building in a couple years. Very valuable information in all your videos.
Best video on the internet! Fun to watch your kids, Great explainations, Fantastic house build, They should cancel "This Old House" and use your videos instead! Thanks for taking the time, Regards, Dave (84 years old)
Very accurate and interesting information. You really did your research. Best of luck with it after all your hard work. Real job once again.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰🥰🥰🥰
Some of us like the long videos, but you do what you need to do for your channel bro. Great videos, keep em coming!
Two hours eighteen minutes is longer than a Discovery Channel documentary including adverts.
@@iansmartel5473 I like those too!
Your level of knowledge is amazing! It´s really interesting to follow your channel,Jesse 👍
those boys make everyone smile...
All the poly pipes used in local gas as well as water are made from essentially the same polymers. Thickness is the greatest variable I have noticed, but running black pipe is very common in Texas, with orange being reserved for natural gas. Both assemble using the socket /hot plate Jesse used. A comment he made about the temps and always watching; in every state it is allowed, IIRC, only licensed and specially tagged plumbers can do the joins and connections for natural gas. Absolutely awesome DIY install, Jesse! PS; I'd go ahead and hit Water Furnace up- you are correct, there is not a lot about hydronics; one or two of the pole framers have info on installing in slab piping but not much else.
Great job and great system Jesse. Thank you for sharing.
Very informative, I appreciate your very detailed explanations of the overall systems and its components.
Hello Jesse, I love watching your videos. I think I've seen every one of them. If I lived in NY and we were neighbors, I know that we would definitely be buds! Me and my brother had an excavation company where I drove all the same equipment you do. I've worked in the electrical field before and I know plumbing too! You got me beat on the solar and heat pump stuff, but I would have learned. 😎 You got a beautiful family and I love how you take time with them instead of running them off or out of your shots. 💜 I love how you did your counters in the kitchen too! The whole kitchen as a matter of fact. I love how you help your parents! Well, I just wanted to let you know. Thank you and God Bless you and your family!
Thanks. Actually solar is totally new to me. i have never messed with it before. I will be installing solar on a camper in a few weeks and i will share my experience with it. Thanks for the positive feedback
Amazing video, Jesse. I hope you and the family had a great summer. Another massive project is nearly finished and much closer to completion. I bet no other contractors have a pedalo boat of their own. Seeing you and Pat in it was funny. Was hoping it didn't turn into a submarine
I giggled more than I should have watching those two pedal around the pond.
Your boys are a great help. “I’m diggin” and we are trying to clean up. The best boys. Noah is a little bit tired. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Your mechanical room is starting to look like the guts of a submarine. Great video by the way. Thanks for your hard work. Ten thousand thumbs up!!!!!!!
Stop. The only resemblance, between the mechanical room and a submarine is this one is about to sink. On purpose.
The rebate on that system is great very good video and your explanation through the whole system was very good
It’s beyond fascinating how you explain everything. But my oh my how do you remember what all those cables are for and more to the point where they go. You have some brain. Very well done Jesse. You should be a lecturer in a university, your students would love you. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰🥰🥰🥰
Dude, the high speed paddle boat-canoe scene was epic...
FYI, those air handlers are almost the same as a mini-split except for tubing size perhaps or maybe it is the same size as well and only the connections are larger for the water supply. Can't see why they would be so expensive as millions are being made and sold all over the world. Speaking of which be very careful of your condensate lines, keeping as much drop as possible throughout the run with no flat spots in the run. In a year or two any flat spots will accumulate moisture and mold will grow emitting a nasty rotten smell back out the handler. That one looked like it was mighty close to the overhead, but that might have been the camera. Six or eight inches is a minimal minimum especially since you will be running low efficiency at ninety degrees you will want to move as much air as possible. Personally I wouldn't put them closer to the overhead than twelve inches if at all possible. Interesting installation having it "top off the heat or cooling" and only come on after the main source bottoms out. Having it run parallel would be easy but only coming on after sensing that the main system can't handle it is going to be a bit more complex. While the computer in a normal mini split could do the first easily enough I am not sure it could handle the second scenario. A two inch foam box might be the simplest way to handle that manifold. Spray foam it together. Make it removeable by pulling it straight forward. Insulate the back of the mounting board and wall. Simple and easy. Very interesting topic and I will be watching as it takes shape over a heating and cooling season for how it turns out. Thanks for doing the videos.
Well man from a southern hvac tech with 28 years under my belt, I've always been curious about full hydronic systems, (we just don't have them around here) that was a very informative video. I'll say well done so far, just from what I've seen your attention to detail is unparalleled and your working knowledge of the system seems to be on point. I'm thinking about putting in a geo system when I build my house except my property hs no pond I'd have to do a well or ground loop.
Thanks. You should get a geo system. The reason they arent popular is because nobody wants to take the time to break from the norm. This unit will have a COP of over 4.0. So for every unit of energy I put in equivalent to electric heat, I get 4 units out of the unit
Thanks, Jesse! As usual: Great work!
i like your video very much love from pakistan 🇵🇰
❤ I love your long videos I could watch them all day Jessie. Your doing some long complicated work well done . Australia ❤
Jesse you can never sell your house! 😊 No one would ever understand all you have done! 👌👍🏻
Great video. Excellent learning video as well. You could have put a metal bar into the ground behind the drill and used it for pushing leverage.
For your core drill when you're not so close to the ground, fabricate a curved plate for the rear of the drill so you can put your chest or stomach against it. Maybe even pad it. p.s. I could watch an hour long video of Noah! He absolutely warms my heart as he reminds me of my son at that age!
An actual chuckle from Jesse? Mob reference got him laughin... now we know what cracks a smile on our boy Jesse lol
I actually laugh quite a bit when things are going ok. I dont show too much of it because too many channels try to be comedians all the time and I find it annoying. Also I dont laugh much when things are not going good
@jmuller86 yeah I get that. Nothin funny about stuff not goin to plan. Seriousness or jokes I enjoy the videos man. House is coming together nicely
Glad i found your channel. Thanks Jesse.
Awesome video Jesse. You obviously have been thinking about how to do this for a long time. Smart guy. Very good video and editing. Looking forward to more on this any other topic on your channel.
I'm always learning something on your channel!👍
Awesome video Jessie, your educating generations to come😊
Wow, what a system!
I was just imaging that you will freeze the pond or cook it up while you demand heat or cooling from it...
😂
Really looking forward to see that system run, great vid of a great job!
👍👍👍
that htp tank is awesome.i bought one and they are top notch with the stainless steel coil inside that baby will last forever.they are expensive but worth it
Great video Jesse. Thank you.
Excellent video. You are a genius...
Hi Jesse, a good way to deal with the pipes is to mount the ply behind on 4x2’s creating a gap behind the mounting board, then you can route the pipes through the back and bring them out under the manifold
Thanks for the detail. Very interested in hydronic systems but so little information out there. 👍
Most critical high tech equipment on this project was the paddle boat. Great video.
I feel the same way about info on these and I can only dream of having a system like this! nice work!
Great work as usual.
One thing though, as much as we love to see your lovely kids in the video, please keep them at a safe distance when working on heavy machinery. ❤
I enjoy your videos, and by far, my favorite part is seeing your boys manhandle those shovels. LOL
Your boys did more work in that short amount of time y videoed them making that pile, then the average millennial does in an average work week these days. Good on you for teaching them a strong work ethic!!❤
Awesome video. Thank you so much for doing these!!
Best line in the video - It does not make heat, it just moves it :)
Thanks for the ecobee t-stat content.. i need a new one and was looking. If you use it, thats a definite thumbs up. Just ordered it.
It’s all Greek to me Jesse but It is so interesting to watch every project you venture into. One talented individual. Thanks for sharing your detailed work.
The air vent on the top manifold works basically like the float on an carburetor, as long no water presses the float up air can escape through the vent hole.
Very Interesting Jesse I think I will rewatch this video
He's a clever lad. love it. cant wait until part 2. Greetings from UK
Great information Jesse, in Australia there is a push for mor efficient heating and cooling, but our building codes are pathetic compared to how you have built this house. I have been following this series right from the start, you are doing a great job!
Really? I watch Grand Designs and it seems that you can't build a house there for under a million$. I figured they'd be at the pinnacle of engineering if anything.
@@lornes7526 most new houses built in Australia still don’t require double glazed windows! There is an energy efficiency rating that needs to be met, but it can be achieved by installing solar panels on the roof, a heat pump hot water service, and a rainwater tank to provide garden and toilet water. As for cost, even a basic 3 bedroom home with cheap fixtures will cost well over $300,000 to build now; thats if you can find a builder!
@@lornes7526 Watch some of the drain addict or penetrator drain cleaning videos. Some of their drainage systems look to have been installed by graduates of the M.C. Escher school of design.
I got to hand it to you young man you sure know your stuff.
The apartment buildings here have Geo thermo heat and cooling system works great all year round.
Hi from Czech republic..
OMG you are genius...??? 😮😮😮.
This is very great job.. 👍👍👍Those electrical systems are probably for a nuclear reactor😮😮
Such a good video explaining your geothermal system. 👍
Hey Jesse. Man it seems to be you're a hard worker and you use your head working smarter not harder! But what really amazes me with you is how you interact with your children!! You're a good father and I wish I could see more father's more like you❤ thank you for your videos I apologize if I don't like every single one is because I forget to hit the like button ✅ I apologize I forget put your help you I'll try to remember more but for real. And I was always curious if you were related to The Muller's here in Connecticut where I had grown up Sterling area? Glenwood road keep doing what you doing you're a great man and you are great and awesome father keep doing what you do
"Man, that cell phone sure can dig" - hilarious!
Very nice, hope system works to your exaptation's.
Noah is a charmer.
I was thinking when you would start your older boy driving the dump truck?
Could of used a driver on this trench job.
AWESOME! CONGRATS!
You have a very nice Family. You are a fortunate Man.
Jesse fantastic videos!! Thank u for making them. So many people wanting to know this info. Can u list what u bought and where u purchased your products. It would help everyone at least know what we need and where to get it and apply to our own applications. Thanks
I like how you build. if Anything goes wrong or breaks when your living in it.with your house you'll know how to fix it fast.
Great job sir fine memory's 🎉🎉🎉Peace happy fall
Learning a lot from this, thanks
