Geothermal HVAC Service, Repair, and Replacement

No. Heat pumps may be air source, geothermal (ground- or water-source), or hybrid.

When you want to heat your home, geothermal heat pumps harness solar energy from a few feet below the earth’s surface or body of water. In a closed-loop system, pipes filled with conducting liquid are buried below the ground in your yard or beneath your driveway. The liquid in the pipes is circulated through the heat pump in your home, bringing thermal energy from the ground indoors.

When you want to cool your home, the heat pump works in reverse: absorbing hot, humid air and moving it underground to cool and dehumidify your home.

Yes, and much more efficiently than air-source heat pumps. While the air temperature plummets in cold weather, leaving the unit with less heat to harvest, underground temperatures stay pretty much the same throughout winter. Geothermal heat pumps are an excellent, highly efficient option for homeowners in cold or four-season climates.

Geothermal systems are a significant investment, but many property owners note that they pay for themselves over time! The exact cost of installation will vary based on the type of system chosen. With no hidden fees and guaranteed upfront pricing, contact your local Aire Serv to learn more about your options and schedule a service.

The steps to successfully installing a geothermal heat pump system will vary depending on your chosen make and model. Your local Aire Serv can guide you through every step of the process, from investigation through installation and ongoing maintenance.

While the underground piping has essentially no moving parts and can go many decades without issues, the heat pump unit and thermostat require maintenance and occasional repairs, just like other heating and cooling systems.
