Why Install a Geothermal Heat Pump?

A geothermal heat pump works on the same basic principle as a conventional heat pump but is even more energy-efficient. Benefits of installing a geothermal heat pump include:

  • Clean, renewable energy: Geothermal heat pumps emit no greenhouse gases, which is better for the environment and indoor air quality.
  • Substantially lower operating costs: A geothermal heat pump can reduce your heating costs from 30% to 60% and between 20% and 50% for air conditioning.
  • Quieter operation: The lack of an outdoor compressor or fan makes these systems much quieter than conventional heat pumps.
  • Low maintenance: Fewer moving parts means less maintenance is required
  • Longer life span: Geothermal systems last about 25 years, which is about 10 years longer than conventional heating and air conditioning equipment.

Geothermal System Installation & Replacement

At Albemarle Heating & Air, we proudly install WaterFurnace systems because they’re a leading manufacturer specializing in geothermal heat pumps.

Not every HVAC company offers geothermal systems, but we do. While we never recommend DIY HVAC installations, it’s particularly important to leave your geothermal installation to the professionals to ensure proper operation.

Geothermal System Repair

Geothermal systems are durable, but they still need repairs from time to time. Components will suffer from wear and tear, especially without routine tune-ups.

When the blower fan motor fails, leaks emerge, condensate drains clog, or other issues occur, our technicians will quickly diagnose the cause of the problem and apply the necessary repairs.

We adhere to strict safety and quality standards and guarantee the reliability of the geothermal system repairs we provide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Day in and day out, the sun’s rays warm the Earth. This generates heat that is then trapped below ground. And while temperatures above ground can range from well below freezing in the winter to sweltering hot in summer, the temperature below ground remains a relatively stable 50 to 70 degrees.

In the winter, the heat pump will draw this heat into the system, concentrate it, and circulate it throughout your home. In the summer, the flow is reversed to pull the heat from your home. It’s an efficient, effective solution ideally suited for Virginia homes.

A geothermal system is easiest to install during new construction, but retrofits are possible. When adding this type of system to an existing home, ductwork modifications may add to the project’s cost. Our team of experts has the professional expertise to design a properly sized system and ensure precision installation for an efficient system.

Though these systems save money long-term, the initial cost is substantial. The energy savings can help offset the cost of a geothermal system; per WaterFurnace, many homeowners see a return of 10% to 20% over the lifetime of their WaterFurnace geothermal systems. If you plan to stay in your home for years, you will recoup the initial installation costs. When installing a geothermal system during construction, you can include the upfront costs in your mortgage.

Geothermal heat pumps are among the most energy-efficient heating and cooling solutions available. It is not unheard of for these systems to achieve between 300% to 600% efficiency during the winter.

By comparison, air-source heat pumps typically deliver between 175% and 250% efficiency, while standard furnaces deliver 80% to 100% efficiency.
