How Does Geothermal Power Work for My HVAC System?

Once you understand how green energy works for heating and cooling, you will be ready to use it for your home.

Green energy has really gotten a boost in the last 10 years. Rolling blackouts, rising fuel costs, and a falling economy have all helped fuel an industry established in an attempt to cut down on waste. Homeowners are finding there are mutual benefits. As we turn toward technology that helps the planet, we find ourselves experiencing major benefits.

Consider how geothermal power works to heat and cool your home:

  • Geothermal energy takes advantage of underground or underwater temperatures. In the Gastonia area, the temperature underground consistently hovers near 60 degrees. This source of heating or cooling can be used to adjust home comfort.
  • Geothermal systems are made of long tubes filled with liquid. This liquid is circulated underground where it's either warmed or cooled by underground temperatures. It's then returned to the home where its temperature is converted for heat pump, radiant flooring, or water heater use.

Efficiency of Geothermal

EnergyStar-rated geothermal products can improve your HVAC system's efficiency by 45 percent. This rate goes even higher if geothermal is also used for heating your water supply. What's more, you can qualify for a sizeable tax credit for installing a quality geothermal system. Reclaim up to 30 percent of your purchase and installation costs now through the end of 2016. These credits apply to system lines, compressors, and the heating and cooling equipment capable of working with them, such as TruCOMFORT's green-ready line.
