Geothermal Heating, Cooling, and Why It's Good Ideas

By Washington HVAC Boss

Traditional heating and cooling systems need significant energy input to regulate your home's temperature. Heat pumps are more efficient and use less energy than other types. Geothermal heating, cooling, and heating systems transfer heat to regulate the temperature. This process has long-term potential benefits and is likely to save you money in both the short- and long-term.

Geothermal Heatpumps Cost Less to Operate

Geothermal heating or cooling systems will require some electricity to operate, but it is much lower than what traditional HVAC systems need. Geothermal heat pumps are more affordable to run in both summer and winter. They will keep your home warm and cool, while also allowing you to save money on heating and cooling costs. A geothermal heat pump can help you save between 20-50% on cooling your home, and 30-60% on heating your home over its life.

Reduce Carbon Emissions

Combustion furnaces make heat using fuel like gas or oil. The combustion process produces many byproducts, including greenhouse emissions. Geothermal heating, cooling, and heating eliminate combustion from heating. This reduces greenhouse gases and carbon emissions associated with comfortable living. Your geothermal heat pump will still use electricity from combustion. However, your carbon emissions will be lower if your geothermal HVAC system uses less energy.

Geothermal Heatpumps are Versatile and Long-Lasting

A geothermal heat pump can be used to heat or cool your home throughout the year. A geothermal heating/cooling system can replace both your furnace and air conditioner in one appliance. Because you only need to maintain one HVAC system over the years, this reduces HVAC maintenance and repair costs. Geothermal heating or cooling systems have a functional life expectancy that is longer than most other heating or cooling equipment. While an air conditioner or furnace may last 10-15 years, geothermal heat pumps can last as long as 25 years before needing to be replaced. Your cooling and geothermal heating system's ground loop can last 50 years or longer before replacement is necessary.
