Benefits of a geothermal heat pump system
One centralized system
A geothermal heat pump is designed to be the main heating and cooling system used in your facility. It transfers heat to or from the ground based on seasonality (transferring heat from the ground to your facility in the winter and transferring heat back to the ground in the summer). This is all done through a network of pipes installed beneath your property.
Much lower heating & cooling costs
On average, geothermal heat pumps can be 25-50 percent lower than standard heating and cooling systems. This is due to the fact that they use a much smaller amount of electricity. For every one unit of electricity (kW) used by a geothermal system, that can be converted to 3-5 kW of heating or 2-3 kW of cool energy.
Corrects imbalanced bore field problems associate with standard geothermal
All winter long, standard geothermal pumps pull heat out of the earth, but in the summer they don’t put as much heat as they pulled out in the winter back in. There’s an imbalance. As a result, heat is not being used as effectively and it can even potentially damage the earth beneath. This is why many geothermal systems fail to produce projected results.
Take advantage of 10% commercial geothermal heat pump tax credit
In December 2020, the commercial geothermal heat pump tax credit was extended until January 2022. It provides a 10% tax credit on all commercial geothermal heat pump installations, allowing the chance to offset a decent chunk of the system’s cost.

Interested in installing a geothermal heat pump for your organization? Consider these factors
- Do you have a large parking lot or open land for a geothermal system? Geothermal heat pump systems can vary in size depending on the application, but they can take up several hundred to over one thousand feet of land underground.
- Do you have high heating and cooling costs? For larger facilities with refrigerated areas, cooking areas, or heavy machinery, heating and cooling costs can be huge. If you have high heating and cooling costs, a geothermal heat pump could be the solution.
- Is your HVAC system outdated? An old HVAC system could be costing your organization a lot of money per month. Replacing those and integrating a geothermal heat pump could increase efficiency substantially.
