How Geothermal Systems Work

Geothermal heating and cooling systems use the natural heat beneath the earth’s surface to regulate the temperature of your home. These systems are incredibly energy-efficient and sustainable, taking advantage of the consistent temperatures found underground, which stay relatively stable throughout the year.

The system works through a network of pipes, known as a ground loop, which are buried in the ground either horizontally or vertically, depending on the available space and soil conditions. In winter, the system pulls heat from the earth through the loop and uses a heat pump to transfer this heat into the home. In summer, the process reverses, and the heat pump extracts heat from the indoor air and transfers it into the ground, providing cooling.

Geothermal systems differ from standard air-source heat pumps in Hillsboro, OH by drawing the ambient energy from the abundant mild temperatures beneath the earth’s crust. The heat pump then uses electricity to circulate the heat, but the energy required is far less compared to traditional heating or cooling systems, leading to significant energy savings.

While geothermal systems have a higher upfront cost, their long-term savings, eco-friendly operation, and longevity (underground loop components last 50 years) which makes them a wise investment for homeowners looking to reduce their carbon footprint and energy bills.

Schedule Professional Geothermal Repairs

One key reason for hiring a professional is system complexity. Geothermal systems involve intricate components like ground loops, heat pumps, and refrigeration circuits. A licensed technician has the training to diagnose issues accurately and perform repairs on these specialized systems, ensuring they function optimally. Improper handling could lead to system inefficiency, higher energy costs, or even complete system failure.

Safety is another critical factor. Geothermal systems involve electrical and refrigerant components that can pose risks if not handled properly. A professional is trained to safely manage these elements, reducing the potential for accidents or hazardous leaks.

Additionally, hiring a professional helps preserve warranties. Many geothermal systems come with warranties that require professional service to remain valid. DIY repairs or unlicensed work could void these warranties, leaving you financially responsible for future repairs.
