The pump circulates an antifreeze and water solution through a ground loop composed of piping that is buried in the ground. The heat in the ground is then absorbed within the fluid and then pumped via a heat exchanger located within the pump. The heat energy enters a compressor and becomes concentrated into an elevated temperature that is able to heat water for hot water circuits and general heating. The fluid is then recycled and is able to absorb additional ground energy, making the process continuous.

The ground loop's length will depend upon the home's size as well as the amount of heat which is needed. The longer the loop, the more it is able to draw the ground's heat. However, more space is needed in order to bury the loop within the ground.

Typically, the ground loop is inserted flat into the ground or can also be coiled within trenches that are dug. However, if the yard does not possess adequate space to install the ground loop, it is possible to use a vertical loop instead.
