Excavating for the Tubing Connections

We're on to the next phase. Yesterday they trenched for the tubing connections. There are trenches around the driveway area that are about 5 feet deep and 3 feet wide. If we added water and alligators we would be just like a castle! The tubing will be joined between the wells so that it becomes one continuous loop, and then it will be brought to the front of the garage, taken up the wall and into the attic. Finally it will come down into the garage and connect to the main geothermal unit.
