Patent ID: 8127566

Claim:
A water source geothermal unit comprising: an enclosure having a first opening configured to receive air; a second opening axially opposed to and distal from the first opening to exhaust air; a fan located adjacent the first opening; wherein the fan draws air and moves air from the first opening, and directs the air toward the second opening; a compressor that receives evaporated refrigerant from a liquid-to-refrigerant heat exchange coil; wherein the compressor is configured to compress the evaporated refrigerant from the liquid-to-refrigerant heat exchange coil creating heated refrigerant during the heating cycle, and the compressor circuit creating chilled refrigerant during the cooling cycle; a coil located adjacent the second opening; and a chute located adjacent the compressor and between the fan and the coil; wherein the coil receives and circulates the heated or chilled refrigerant; wherein moving air from the fan passes through the chute, around the coil and exhausts from the second opening.
