I did a water temp test yours and my well are probably around the same depth, So tempwise should be same. 66 degrees was comeing out steady. I would say that if you ran the water through a big enough radiator and made it a closed loop with a small pump you could boost efficiency of your mini split when it gets ultra hot or as days like it is today ultra cold.

Well i plan on puttin the radiator in sometime just have to find the time. Had thought about a small solar air heater to raise temp during winter time to. Dont know yet for night.. Main reason is on extreme cold days it has to work a bit harder to keep it warm for the whole house Would like to see how it would do if it was multi zoned.
