Neo-Geothermal

A gas geothermal heat pump is a device that extracts heat from the earth's underground layers. The principle of operation relies on the fact that heat always flows from higher temperature matter to lower temperature matter by conduction or by convection (air currents). Geothermal pumps take energy from the ground or water to provide heating and hot water for all building types. Using the method of heat exchangers, heat can be extracted from one source and delivered to another. Gas geothermal heat pumps basically pump the heat from one location to another. The reason why this whole thing works is because the earth absorbs about 50% of the sun's energy that reaches the surface of the earth.

Gas geothermal heat pumps provide a real solution to home heating problems. No more high heating bills, humidification problems, cold drafts or hot blasts, and environmental side effects of burning fuels. Forget about the traditional age old technology that goes all the way back to black-and-white television, VCRs, and bias-ply tires. Thousands of homeowners across the country have already discovered the power of geothermal heating and cooling, what about you?

Geothermal systems have proven themselves over the past few decades of operation in all parts of USA. There are several manufacturers and many contractors in every area so there is stiff competition which ensures quality installation and service at a fair price.

Some people are concerned that a gas geothermal heat pump might be difficult to install, but there is no such thing. Most units are easy to install, especially when they are replacing another forced air system. They can be installed in areas unsuitable for fossil fuel furnaces because there is no combustion, thus, no need to vent exhaust gases. Ductwork must be installed in homes that don't have an existing air distribution system. The difficulty of installing ductwork will vary and should be assessed by a contractor.

The average life span of a gas geothermal heat pump is 22 years, estimated by the U.S. Department of Energy. so the initial investment will definitely pay itself back. Gas geothermal heat pumps save money, reduce emissions, and are cost effective compared to conventional heating and cooling technologies. Other heating systems might be less expensive initially, but their level of efficiency is much lower. On top of all that cost effectiveness, geothermal heat pump systems offer aesthetic advantages, there really quiet during operation, free or reduced-cost hot water, improved comfort, and a host of other benefits.
