Eco-Friendly Geothermal Solutions Tailored to Mountain Home’s Unique Climate Needs
Geothermal heating and cooling systems utilize the earth's consistent temperature below ground for indoor climate control. They transfer heat to and from the ground, supplying excellent heating in the winter and cooling in the summer.
Geothermal technology relies on a series of pipes buried underground. The pipes, also called loops, disperse or absorb heat when a mixture of water and antifreeze flows through them. To guarantee ideal room conditions, a heat pump functions as the gateway to the heat source or heat sink.
There are numerous benefits that come with a Geothermal system, including it being highly efficient and sustainable, consumers of the technology will also see a decrease in their energy bill, and will also increase the overall value of their home.
Without a doubt, geothermal systems are considered “green” in that they use renewable resources from the Earth’s heat as a source of energy, produce very little greenhouse gases, and have dramatically smaller carbon footprints than traditional HVAC systems.
Geothermal systems are known for their staying power and durability. Properly maintained equipment can last 20 to 25 years or more. The underground loops can last 50 years or more.
Typically, a drill or digging equipment like a backhoe is used to install the earth loop. Then the heat pump and indoor unit/s are installed. Finally, the system is connected to the ductwork or radiant heat system.
The rebates and incentives for setting up a geothermal system will change for each region and energy provider. Households and businesses in Mountain Home will have to reach out to the local authority or energy organizations in order to find out their incentives and financing options for a geothermal system.
Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the most efficient and long life of your GHP system. This can include a periodic check and clean of filters, reassurance that your refrigerant level is right, and an annual professional tune-up.
If you have a home, a business, an industry, and just about anything else with a heating and cooling application, you can use geothermal. The size of the property, the type of soil, and the amount of money a customer would like to spend on the installation are all factors that determine whether or not it would be a good fit.
Yes, you can install a geothermal heat pump in a retrofit application. However, depending on the site conditions and the specifics of your existing heating (ductwork, radiators, etc.) system, it may or may not be cost-effective to do so. Only a reputable geothermal heat pump installer can figure that out after conducting a site visit.
