How Does Geothermal Technology Work?

Geothermal Technology heat and cool their homes, providing service that is both cleaner and more efficient than traditional heating and cooling technologies. If you’re interested in learning more about how you can provide heating and air conditioning to your Gaithersburg home using geothermal technology, read on.

Where the energy comes from. The ground beneath us absorbs nearly half of all the heat the Earth gets from the sun, and that heat stays buried there, ready for us to use—even when winter comes and the air above ground is cold. No matter what the season is, the area up to 10 feet below the surface maintains a consistent temperature at all times.

How the energy is extracted. Geothermal technology extracts heat from beneath the ground using a series of underground pipes known as a loop. When you need to use your heating system, a heat pump circulates air through the loop, then returns the warmed air to your home. When you need to use your air conditioning, the heat pump takes the warm air from your home through the loop and allows the heat to dissipate.

Why geothermal technology is smart. Geothermal technology has a number of important advantages that make it beneficial for today’s homeowners. It is extremely efficient; you can cut your energy expenditures by as much as 70% by using geothermal heat pumps to heat and cool your household. It’s also a green-friendly means of controlling your home’s temperature. Geothermal heat pumps produce zero emissions, do not burn any fossil fuels, use less electricity than traditional heating methods, and reduce your household’s impact on the environment.
