High Performance HVAC Geothermal Heating with Heat PumpsGeothermal Heat PumpsRequest 3 Free Heat Pump Installation Estimates Geothermal heat pumps use ground water or water circulated through pipes to exchange heat with the earth. Geothermal heat pumps, versus air heat pump systems, use the earths natural temperature to exchange heat and provide heating and cooling with a geothermal heat pump system. The temperature of the air varies widely with the weather whereas the temperature of the earth is nearly constant and makes the use of a geothermal heat pump system ideal for heating and cooling your home or business. It also costs less in energy use because of the constant earth temperature versus the widely varying temperature of the outside air. Geothermal heat pump systems make sense and can save lots of money in energy use. Geothermal heat pumps provide you with heating and cooling at nearly half the energy cost that standard air conditioner and heating systems or air to air or gas or oil systems cost to run in the typical residential or light commercial setting. The high installation costs of geothermal heat pumps can be offset by the savings in energy usage over a period of time making geothermal heat pumps ideal for the present and future use. Energy costs are rising every year as finite resources become limited and the world population increases demand for energy geothermal heat pumps can be a solution to save in energy costs in the future. There are some considerations you need to know about having a geothermal heat pump system installed for your home or business. First you need to have a source of water in a large body or a well that can handle the load of a geothermal heat pump. In some cases, if you have a large area of land, a trench can be dug and special geothermal heat pump piping can be installed in the trench to provide a water loop for the geothermal heat pump system. The cost of have a well drilled, trench dug, or piping ran to a large body of water can make the installation cost of the geothermal heat pumps rise well above the normal air to air heat or cooling systems however the energy savings realized over a period of time by utilizing a geothermal heat pump system can offset this high geothermal heat pump system installation cost. A geothermal heat pump system can come as a split system or it can be a single packaged unit. A geothermal heat pump system will still require the installation of duct work because geothermal systems are forced air systems. An added benefit of a geothermal heat pump system is that some geothermal heat pumps can be fitted to heat water for domestic use so you can use your geothermal heat pump to heat water for your shower and washing dishes. Here is an excellent video of how a geothermal system heat pump works. Lengthy video and intense discussion of a geothermal heat pump system but very good. Geothermal heat pump systems are the most efficient systems used and do not require back-up heat like an air to air heat pump system. The cost of installing a geothermal heat pump system is higher but over the long term the savings in energy usage from a geothermal heat pump system to an air to air heat pump system is greater. The discussion includes the payback in energy savings from the cost of installing a geothermal heat pump system.

Are you aware of any companies that have or are planning to add a solar power option to further reduce heating and cooling costs?
