What is Geothermal?

Geothermal systems use the consistent temperatures found just below the earth's surface to heat and cool your home. They work by transferring heat from the ground into your home during the winter and removing heat from your home back into the ground during the summer. This process is very efficient because the ground maintains a relatively stable temperature throughout the year.

Is Geothermal Right for Me?

Geothermal systems are great for homes looking for efficient and eco-friendly heating and cooling solutions.

They are especially beneficial if:
  • You plan to stay in your home for a long time.
  • You want to reduce your energy bills significantly.
  • Your home has enough space for a horizontal or vertical loop system.
  • You are building a new home or replacing an old HVAC system.
  • You are eligible for energy efficiency tax credits and rebates.

Geothermal systems can work in both urban and rural settings, making them a versatile choice for many homeowners.

Types of Geothermal Loops

There are different types of geothermal loops, each designed for specific conditions to maximize efficiency. The most optimal types are closed-loop and open-loop systems.

Each type of geothermal loop has its unique advantages and is suited for different environments. Our seasoned technicians can help you choose the right system for your property, helping you achieve optimal energy efficiency. Whether you have ample land, limited space, or access to a water source, there is a geothermal loop system that can meet your heating and cooling needs effectively.

  • Horizontal Loops

    Ideal for areas with ample land space, these loops are placed in trenches about 4-6 feet deep.

  • Vertical Loops

    Used when land area is limited, vertical loops go deep into the ground, usually 100-400 feet.

  • Pond/Lake Loops

    If there's a nearby body of water, coils are placed underwater, making this an efficient and cost-effective option.

  • Open Loops

    This system uses groundwater from a well or surface body of water, which is then returned to the source after passing through the system.

Geothermal Heat Pumps

Geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) use the earth's constant temperature to heat and cool your home efficiently. There are two main categories of GHPs:

  • Water-to-Air Heat Pumps: Transfer heat between the ground and air in your home.

  • Water-to-Water Heat Pumps: Move heat between the ground and water for radiant heating or cooling systems.

GHPs work by circulating a fluid through the geothermal loops, absorbing heat from the ground in winter and releasing heat back into the ground in summer. This process is highly energy-efficient and helps reduce utility costs while maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature year-round.
