We’ve launched a new blog where we’ll discuss commercial Geothermal Energy technologies and provide suggestions on how we may assist you enhance the operations of your business. With our HVAC services for commercial and industrial facilities, we are here to help with comfort and workflow.

The geothermal heat pump, also known as a ground-source heat pump, is one of the greatest choices for a company looking to go “boilerless” and “towerless” about heating and cooling. For businesses in the United States, we provide full commercial Geothermal Energy services.

The Workings of Geothermal Heat Pump Systems

If you have some experience managing commercial or industrial buildings, you might be curious in how a heat pump and tower can work together. Large boilers and towers appear to be essential components of the heating and cooling systems that are used throughout a building, whether for comfort, process efficiency, or asset protection.

Unlike conventional heat pumps (air-source heat pumps) and cooling systems, geothermal heat pumps don’t need to interface with the outside air. Rather, they reach the earth’s constant temperature between 6 and 10 feet below the frost line. The geothermal system’s loops in the ground provide steady, warm temperatures regardless of how cold or hot the temperatures above ground get.

Either heat is removed from indoors and deposited in the ground, or heat is absorbed and transported indoors to a heat exchanger via the loops, which are filled with a water-antifreeze mixture.

Commercial Geothermal Heat Pumps’ Benefits

However, as rooftop unit heat pumps are more widely used, why take this route? because geothermal heat pumps can function with greater energy efficiency. Geothermal heat pumps are three to six times more energy efficient than conventional air-source heat pumps, according to government studies.

Over the year, your business will save a significant amount of money, making the heat pump installation quickly pay for itself. Additionally, since geothermal systems have a 25-year (or longer) warranty and the loops can last for more than 50 years, you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy these advantages.

It’s Not as Hard as You Might Think to Install!

Businesses with limited space can benefit from geothermal heating and cooling through a variety of loop layouts. It is possible to send vertical loops directly into holes that are dug to a depth of 250 feet on average. You can employ an open loop system if your company is located close to a natural body of water. 

Horizontal loops in shallow trenches are less costly if there is room. They can be placed beneath your parking lot! Working with our experts will result in the ideal ground-source heat pump to satisfy your company’s diverse heating and cooling requirements while staying within your budget.
