About this Service
Centennial planned communities and suburban estates often offer the contiguous yard area needed for horizontal loop installation, but Denver basin clays and sand lenses influence trench depth and spacing. This paragraph sets where horizontal loops are a fit and highlights the local soil considerations.
In Centennial, soils typically allow conventional horizontal trenches at 4–6 ft depth, but sand lens layers and varying thermal conductivity mean designs often call for longer run lengths or tighter pipe spacing to meet heating and cooling loads. An on-site evaluation will confirm soil profiles and check for utilities and easements before a written trenching plan is issued. Work is usually completed in stages over several days; commissioning includes pressure and flow tests to system specifications and insulated tie-ins.
Expect a restoration plan tailored to homeowners associations and planned-unit development rules, with specific requirements for topsoil replacement and surface finish. When yards are small or split by landscaping features, hybrid loop options or vertical bores are commonly recommended and fully itemized in the feasibility report.
