How Geothermal Heating Works

Instead of extracting heat from the cold air as traditional heating systems do, geothermal systems extract heat from the ground through a loop system of underground pipes. Heat pumps underground concentrate heated air where it is returned to your home. Temperatures below the earth’s surface are fairly consistent throughout the changing seasons. By absorbing ground heat from the abundant supply stored beneath your home, geothermal heat pumps consume less energy.

Consider these fun facts:

Gas furnaces (burning natural gas as a heat source) have a 98% efficiency rate. That’s pretty good right?
Geothermal systems are exceedingly more efficient with collecting heat from the ground with efficiency rates between 400 to 600%. WOW, that’s fantastic!

Where does Geothermal Energy Come From?

Where does geothermal energy come from? The ultimate source of geothermal energy comes from the sun. The sun warms the earth, and the ground absorbs and holds its heat well. Geothermal systems use the constant temperature of the earth to heat and cool your home. Geothermal systems are eco-friendly and are the most efficient means to heat and cool your home.

How Will Geothermal Systems Cool Your Home?

You can lose your cool when paying the air conditioning bills. Geothermal systems will ease your pain with efficient ways to cool your home while conserving energy at the same time. Geothermal systems work by forcing heat from your home into the ground through a loop system of pipes. Your refrigerator works on the same principle. Geothermal systems are significantly more energy efficient because ground temperatures are steady all year long; transferring heat between your home and the ground is very practical.
