Our Services Heating & Cooling Geothermal Heat Geothermal Heat If you’re looking to reduce your carbon footprint, Haller’s renewable energy services are for you. Geothermal energy seems like a strange, abstract concept that is too complicated to properly understand. But it doesn’t have to be. Haller is here to simplify the process for you to show how exciting renewable energy can be!It’s no secret that relying on sources of renewable energy greatly reduces our dependence on the environmentally unfriendly burning of fossil fuels. Using the constant temperature of the earth to heat and cool your home, our technicians specialize in installing geothermal heat pumps to utilize natural renewable energy. The Basics of Geothermal HeatingWells are drilled and water pipes are inserted into the ground. A continuous flow of water is then circulated through the pipe loop system and back into the house. During the winter, the water is heated by the warmth of the earth and during the summer it is cooled as it travels through the pipes. The geothermal heat pump then exchanges this into the properly cooled and warmed airflow and distributes it through your home’s duct system.Geothermal Heat PumpsA closed loop of pipes are inserted into the ground and filled with a solution that constantly circulates through the geothermal system in the home. Because the solution is already around 50°F, less electricity is needed to heat or cool it. Benefits of Using Geothermal EnergyGeothermal energy has both its pros and cons, but the pros often outweigh the cons in the long run.Energy EfficientThe fluctuations in the heat outside of your home make traditional heat pumps more difficult to maintain. The amount of electricity needed to run a geothermal system is much less. Cost SavingWhile the cost to install a geothermal heat pump is more than a standard heat pump due to the pipe installation, the energy savings will make up the difference. A federal tax credit is also available for 30% of the cost. Reduced Carbon FootprintBecause geothermal heating is a form of renewable energy, you don’t have to be fearful of depleting the limited fossil fuel supply. By installing a geothermal system into your home, know that you’re doing your part to protect the environment.
