What is a Geothermal Heating and Cooling System?

The problem with most heating and cooling systems is they use up valuable resources, whether it’s electricity or natural gas. Unless the electricity is from renewable resources, there is an environmental impact. Standard heating and cooling systems can also cost an arm and a leg during high use months.

There is very little electricity used in geothermal and none of it is used to heat or cool the air. Pipes are placed in the ground below the permafrost where the temperature is at a constant 60-70 degrees regardless of the season. Air from above ground is pumped through the pipes where it is either cooled or heated by the ambient temperature and then pumped into the home. The home is at a constant comfortable temperature all year round.
