My mistake, I meant to specify that I was talking about a walk-in freezer of 5' x 4' x 6' dimensions. I looked back at my OP and noticed that I didn't specify that.

By charging plates I meant the solar collector surface.

I live in a climate where we might have call for air conditioning of the home only 5-10 days per year, so over the course of a year, there would not be a balance between extracting heat from the GSHP vertical field during the winter and replenishing that heat during the summer.
