Core Commercial Subcontracting Capabilities
Standing Column Wells (SCW)
Ideal for tight commercial footprints and Boston/Cambridge urban sites. Deep bedrock boreholes (800โ1,500 ft) utilizing high-capacity submersible pump bleed cycles for extreme heat exchange per square foot of surface real estate.
Vertical Closed-Loop Borefields
Turnkey installation of 10 to 100+ borehole fields. Equipped with continuous single or double IGSHPA-certified HDPE U-tubes, high-solids thermally-enhanced bentonite grout (1.2โ1.6 Btu/hr-ft-ยฐF), and pressure testing to ASTM standards.
48-Hour Formation Thermal Conductivity Testing
We drill, loop, grout, and instrument pilot test boreholes with calibrated data logging equipment. Delivers certified formation thermal conductivity (k), deep earth temperature, and borehole thermal resistance (Rb) for GLD / HydroCAD sizing.
Certified HDPE Fusion & Vault Headers
IGSHPA and PPI certified electrofusion and butt fusion. We fabricate underground manifold distribution vaults, balancing circuit valves, flow instrumentation, and deliver building-penetration stub-outs ready for mechanical HVAC tie-in.
Meeting 2026 Commercial Decarbonization Mandates
Massachusetts and New England commercial properties face increasingly stringent fossil fuel reduction mandates. Geothermal heat pump borefields offer the highest Coefficient of Performance (COP 3.5 to 5.0+) of any HVAC technology:
Boston BERDO 2.0 Compliance
Achieve strict zero-emissions building compliance targets for commercial properties over 20,000 sq ft, avoiding severe municipal non-compliance penalties.
MA Specialized Opt-In Code
Municipalities adopting the Stretch Code require all-electric or net-zero ready construction. Geothermal handles full winter design day heating without resistive spikes.
Commercial Mass Saveยฎ Incentives
Substantial commercial ground-source heat pump incentives per ton of installed capacity, plus Alternative Energy Credits (AECs) providing annual revenue streams.
Partner With New England's Most Experienced Commercial Borefield Driller
Over 500 geothermal boreholes drilled (10,000+ total wells drilled across the Ogden Wells family legacy). Certified IGSHPA team, heavy rotary drilling rigs, and fully licensed across 7 Northeast states (MA, NH, CT, RI, ME, VT, NY).
