How do geothermal heat pumps work?

Among the most efficient heat pump installations available, geothermal heat pumps take advantage of the relatively constant ground temperature (around 50 degrees in the Albany area) to heat and cool your home. In winter, the ground becomes a heat source for your house: because the air temperature is much lower than the ground temperature, the warmth of the earth can be used to heat your home. In summer the ground becomes a way to reduce the heat in your home: because the air temperature is much higher than the ground temperature, the cool earth can be used to decrease the air temperature inside your house. Your heat pump uses buried pipes filled with liquid, usually water or antifreeze, to facilitate this heat transfer. Although installation does involve excavation, once Bourque Mechanical Systems puts in your geothermal heat pump, you'll have low-maintenance, energy-efficient temperature control for year-round comfort!
