At Peterborough Refrigeration Heating & Air Conditioning, we understand that homeowners are always looking for ways to optimize their HVAC systems. One such technology now available is geothermal heating and cooling systems. However, a lack of information about these systems has caused many to miss out on their incredible benefits.

 

We will explain how these systems can make your Peterborough home more comfortable and energy efficient. Dive deeper into the insights in our latest blog!

 

What Is Geothermal Heating and Cooling?


As the term suggests, geothermal heating and cooling systems tap into the heat under the Earth's surface to control your home's temperatures. Unlike traditional HVAC systems that burn fossil fuels or rely on electricity, these systems harness the consistent temperatures found in the ground.

 

The system transfers heat from your home into the Earth in the summer. In the winter, it gathers heat from the ground and transports it inside. Our geothermal heating and cooling systems in Peterborough offer reliable, even, and environmentally friendly temperature control all year round.

 

What Makes Geothermal Heating and Cooling Systems a Good Choice?


Now that you have a clearer picture of these systems, you might be interested to learn more about the benefits they can bring to your home. The following are a few:

 

● Energy-efficient: These systems are far more energy-efficient than traditional heating and cooling systems. They produce four units of heating or cooling for every unit of electricity the heat pump consumes.


Lower operational costs: They have lower operating costs than other HVAC systems. Typically, homeowners can expect an excellent return on their investment and long-term cost savings.


Environmentally friendly: These systems are incredibly green. They utilize the natural and renewable energy beneath the Earth's surface and don't release greenhouse gases into the environment.


Low maintenance: These units require minimal maintenance over time because they have only a few moving parts. For homeowners, this means fewer repair costs and less hassle.


Quiet operation: Geothermal heat pumps operate without the noisy fans or compressors found in traditional air conditioning systems. Their indoor unit is typically located in a basement, utility room, or crawl space, reducing noise.
