Bergvärme på Dharmagiri

From Dharmagiri Retreatcenter on Fri, 24 Jan, 2020 - 07:22

Vi håller på att installera bergvärme för Dharmagiri. Efter många år med bränslepellets och olika pelletsbrännare – som ibland har haft lite av ett eget liv – ska vi äntligen få bergvärme. Det blir en pump till gröna huset och en till röda, med borrhål till vardera (ca 240 meter djupt). Det ska bli skönt att slippa oron för pelletsbrännaren och även kunna justera värmen på distans, via internet. Det här kostar så klart en slant, ca 250 000kr per...

It was deeply significant to be at Adhisthana as we moved beyond the lifetime of the founder of our Order,...
