Geothermal Heat Pumps
FEATURES
-
Geothermal (ground source) heat pumps are electrically powered, self-contained systems that take advantage of the earth’s relatively constant ground temperature to provide heating, cooling and hot water for homes and commercial buildings
-
The heat pump unit is housed entirely within the home or commercial building and connected to the outside buried ground loop
-
Geothermal heat pumps work with the environment to provide clean, efficient and energy-saving heating and cooling year-round through a closed loop or open loop system
-
Loops can be installed three ways: horizontally, vertically or in a pond or lake
-
The type chosen will depend on the available land area and the soil and rock type
ADVANTAGES
-
Savings – Can cut heating and cooling costs by 50 percent and
-
provide hot water free or at substantial savings
-
Durability – Lasts longer than a conventional system due to protection from harsh outdoor weather
-
Low Maintenance – The ground loop has an expected life of over 50 years and requires no maintenance
-
Low Noise – Operates quietly due to lack of exposed, noisy outside units
-
Conservation – Works with the environment by using the earthís moderate ground temperature
