When you’re in the market for heating and air conditioning systems, consider geothermal heat pumps. Unlike other HVAC equipment, these sustainable units absorb energy from natural resources, making them energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. They transfer heat from the ground’s upper layers to your home and vice versa to regulate your indoor temperatures.
Geothermal Heat Pumps
Read on as AirWorks, Inc. discusses how this can benefit you and your home:
1. They Can Increase Your Savings
While geothermal heat pumps involve a high upfront cost, they can save you money in the long run. This is because they only use small amounts of electricity to move heat. On average, they only consume one unit of electric power. They can cut more than half of your utility bills compared to traditional systems, and they will pay for themselves within three to five years.
2. They Serve Various Purposes
Apart from heating and cooling your home, geothermal heat pumps also perform other functions. For one, they can produce hot water at higher efficiencies than ordinary methods. They can also regulate your home’s humidity levels to keep your living space cozy all year round.
3. They Last Longer Than Traditional Systems
Most conventional HVAC units usually stay effective for only 10 years. Geothermal heat pumps, on the other hand, remain efficient for about 25 years, and the system’s ground loop for up to 50 years or more. Because they are untouched by poor climate and weather, they only need minimal maintenance to keep them in the best condition.
4. They’re Safer, Cleaner, and Quieter
Geothermal heat pumps don’t use fossil fuels to function, so there’s no need to worry about fumes, odors, and flames. Furthermore, they apply the same principles that run a refrigerator, which means they won’t produce much noise. These aspects will make it easier for you to maintain a healthy and comfortable home environment.
