Did you know you can heat and cool your home naturally using the earth? Geothermal heat pumps are increasingly popular, and it’s not hard to see why.

The ground is an excellent temperature regulator below the surface. During cold weather, a few feet underground maintains a higher temperature. Want to learn more about these systems? Our team at Triad Heating & Cooling can walk you through the entire process.

How Do Geothermal Heat Pumps Work?

Geothermal systems circulate a treated antifreeze liquid through a closed underground loop. On a chilly day, the earth heats the liquid. A ground heat exchanger extracts the heat from the liquid and transfers it to the heat pump, which dispenses the heat throughout your Asheboro home.

During the summer, the heat pump works in reverse, like an air conditioner. It removes heat and humidity from your indoor air and moves it the ground. The chilled air it returns to your home cycles back through your ductwork.

Some Geothermal Heat Pump Facts

There are plenty of reasons geothermal heat pumps are unique:

  • They are among the greenest systems on the market.
  • These systems don’t burn gas but instead rely on the sun’s energy that’s naturally deposited into the ground.
  • The geothermal heat pump offers both heating and cooling. Many conventional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems require the combination of two units: an air conditioner plus a furnace or boiler.
  • You can apply for energy tax credits. The IRS allows a yearly deduction for a geothermal system, including the cost of installation.
  • Geothermal heat pumps use up to half as much electricity as a standard HVAC unit. By making the switch, you can save up 70 percent on your heating costs and up to 50 percent on your cooling costs per year, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
  • You can expect your geothermal heat pump to operate efficiently for up to 25 years and the piping to last over 50 years. This long-lasting investment will increase your home value.

Geothermal Heat Pump Installation and Replacement

The geothermal heat pump is an exciting project to embark on, and our Triad Heating & Cooling team of HVAC professionals will be with you every step of the way.

We’ll need to assess your Asheboro property to figure out the right piping system for you. The construction process will require excavation. Smaller lots may require a deeper dig to create a vertical loop, while large properties allow the piping to spread out horizontally at a shallower depth.

Additionally, we’ll need to take measurements in your living spaces to ensure the heat pump properly circulates air where you need it most.

Geothermal Heat Pump Maintenance

It’s no secret geothermal heat pumps require less maintenance and energy than their more traditional counterparts, which use fossil fuel for energy.

However, professional maintenance checkups are an important way to protect your investment. Since much of the system is underground, it’s harder for you to spot problems.

During routine preventative maintenance visits, our Triad Heating & Cooling geothermal experts will inspect your system thoroughly. We will check your electrical connections, internal components, and refrigerant levels.

Additionally, our professionals will be sure your heat exchanger and blower are running smoothly, and we will change or clean your air filter. We can also inspect your air ducts for needed repairs to help protect your Asheboro home’s indoor air quality (IAQ).

Schedule maintenance today and join our preventative maintenance program—Gold Jacket Maintenance Plans. You’ll enjoy discounts on labor, parts, and repairs. Plus, we’ll remind you when it’s time for a checkup.

For the North Carolina homeowner who wants to reduce their carbon footprint and spend less on utilities, geothermal systems are a terrific choice.

A geothermal heat pump takes advantage of the relatively constant temperature a few feet below the earth’s surface. Unlike a conventional gas furnace that burns fuel to generate heat, geothermal systems use a heat exchanger to move heat from one space to another.

During the summer months, your geothermal heat pump extracts heat from your Asheboro home—similar to an air conditioner—and transfers it to the ground for cooling. In the winter, the geothermal heat pump takes natural heat from the ground and transfers it to your home for heating.

The Advantage of Geothermal

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recognizes geothermal heat pumps as the most energy-efficient and environmentally friendly system you can use to heat and cool your home.

A geothermal system costs more upfront than a conventional furnace and air conditioner, but you can recoup the additional costs through energy savings within five to seven years. Additionally, federal tax credits are available to offset over 25 percent of the installation fees.

Installing a geothermal heat pump is a particularly great option if you are building a new home or planning to upgrade your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Our friendly professionals at Triad Heating & Cooling will work with you to determine if geothermal is the right choice for your home.

Other advantages of geothermal include:

  • They balance indoor humidity levels.
  • They operate whisper-quiet—no noisy fans.
  • They last longer than conventional HVAC equipment.
  • There is no exposed outdoor equipment.
  • They do not expel odors, flames, or dangerous carbon monoxide (CO) fumes.

Geothermal Heat Pump Installation and Replacement

Geothermal systems circulate a treated environmentally friendly liquid through a closed underground loop made of durable plastic to transfer heat. Our team will assess your property to determine the best piping system.

On a small lot, we will create a vertical looping system. If you live on a large lot, we can spread out the piping to create a horizontal loop at a shallower depth.

Do you live near a pond? We can install the looping at the bottom of a pond or lake to create a water-source heat pump.

Once installed underground or in the water, the looping system will last over 50 years. A well-maintained geothermal heat pump can operate efficiently for 20 to 30 years.

Not sure if a geothermal system fits in your budget? At Triad Heating & Cooling, we offer flexible financing options to make it convenient for you to create your dream home.
