Geothermal Heat Pumps
One of today's biggest trends in green home remodeling is installing geothermal heating and cooling systems. Geothermal heat systems, also known as geo-exchange systems, utilize the natural heating properties of the earth to heat and cool your home, and to provide water heating.
Geothermal heat pumps have piping systems that travel from your home's interior to loop around several feet underground, where the air temperature is more stabilized. Water or antifreeze runs through these pipes, absorbing and transferring heat in the winter and cool air in the summer.
It's been estimated that about 70% of energy used with a geothermal heat pump is renewable energy, making it an environmentally friendly way to regulate your home's temperature year round. Additionally, geothermal heat pumps can result in a 30-40% reduction in your energy bills, according to the EPA.
Because geothermal heat pump installation is a very specialized process and service, homeowners should be sure to hire an experienced geothermal contractor to perform this project.
