Geothermal Heat Pumps
Why Geothermal?
- Efficient
- Cost savings
- Eco friendly
- Long lasting
- Versatile
- Many available financial incentives & rebates.
Geothermal heat pumps (GHPs), sometimes referred to as GeoExchange, earth-coupled, ground-source, or water-source heat pumps, have been in use since the late 1940s. They use the constant temperature of the earth as the exchange medium instead of the outside air temperature.
As with any heat pump, geothermal and water-source heat pumps are able to heat, cool, and, if so equipped, supply the house with hot water. Some models of geothermal systems are available with two-speed compressors and variable fans for more comfort and energy savings. Relative to air-source heat pumps, they are quieter, last longer, need little maintenance, and do not depend on the temperature of the outside air.
Even though the installation price of a geothermal system can be several times that of an air-source system of the same heating and cooling capacity, the additional costs are returned to you in energy savings in 5 to 10 years. System life is estimated at up to 24 years for the inside components and 50+ years for the ground loop.

- Application #5
Can be used in ducted systems to provide warm air heating, air conditioning and dehumidification year round. Residential, Commercial, and Industrial projects are all prime candidates for geothermal. Energy costs can often be reduced by as much as 70% when compared to conventional heating/cooling systems.
Can be used in thousands of applications where hot or chilled water is required, including infloor heating (homes, ice rinks, greenhouses, chicken and dairy farms, snow-melt systems etc). Capable of simultaneously heating one area while cooling or dehumidifying another}. Endless areas of usage in the residential, commercial, institutional and industrial arenas can benefit from geothermal.
