Geothermal Heating and Cooling
We recently finished a conversion of two-story home in Honeoye Falls from propane space and potable water heating to geothermal space heating and cooling (i.e. air conditioning) and potable hot water heating. We located the horizontal ground loop in a
Typically, you need to control air-sourced and ground-sourced (geothermal) heat pump systems that are doing heating and cooling duty with a thermostat that is “heat pump compatible”. That’s because an additional terminal on the thermostat is required to signal to
If you are wondering what the long term net savings by converting to a geothermal heating & cooling system, we will try to answer that question by taking a look at a typical system conversion: a family of four in
A key and unique component of any geothermal / ground sourced heat pump (GSHP) system is the ground or earth loop. Regardless of the loop configuration, its function is the same: to extract solar energy stored in the ground and
