Ground-Source (Geothermal) Heat Pumps
A greater way to heat and cool your home.
Maximize your home's comfort and energy efficiency while reducing your carbon footprint by upgrading to a new ground-source heat pump. Also called a geothermal heat pump, these all-in-one systems are the most efficient choice for upgrades and new builds. Ground source heat pumps extract heat from the ground during cold weather and distribute it throughout your home. During warmer months, this process is reversed to provide cooling. This system is the most efficient type of heat pump and can be a great option for properties with sufficient outdoor space.
When properly installed by a heat pump installer network contractor, a ground-source heat pump can reduce energy use by 30-60 percent. That's because it transfers heat instead of converting it from fossil fuel.
