Geothermal heat pumps pay for themselves

The heat pump is installed inside the home and protected from the weather

When my hubby and I were planning to build a new home, the type of heating and cooling method was a sizable debate. Every one of us looked into all different kinds of systems from oil heating systems and central air conditionings to boilers, and they all have their own disadvantages and benefits. Every one of us were hoping to implement a entirely energy efficient method to minimize both our carbon footprint and daily running costs; After some research, we saw that geothermal heat pumps are the most environmentally friendly possibilities on the market. This type of method draws from the free and renewable energy source found underground, but rather than burn fossil fuels to generate heat, the geothermal heat pump moves existing heat from a single place to another; While the actual heat pump uses a little bit of electricity to operate, the method generates multiple times as much energy as it consumes to achieve a 400% efficiency rating. The entirely best gas oil furnace only reaches a 98% AFUE rating. We’re able to heat and cool our home for about a dollar per morning, and the geothermal heat pump has paid for itself in under several years. Because there is no production of carbon monoxide or other greenhouse gases, the method is beautifully safe and clean… It operates quietly and offers ideal air purification and dehumidification. It has entirely few moving parts and requires only periodic filter changes and annual professional service. The heat pump is installed inside the home and protected from the weather. Every one of us can expect it to last approximately twenty years. The ground loop is warrantied for fifty years however will most likely operate reliably for several generations.
