Geothermal Benefits

WaterFurnace geothermal systems are some of the most efficient, energy saving, environmentally conscious heat pumps a homeowner can purchase. This natural heat pump provides years of reliable heat and safe home comfort at a low cost. Learn more about the system benefits in the following:

Low Operating Cost: A WaterFurnace geothermal system delivers FIVE units of energy for every one unit of electrical energy used, making it an extremely efficient heating and air conditioning source. In combining stored energy in the earth with safe electrical power, a homeowner can see savings of up to 70% on the heating, cooling, and hot water bill.

Enhanced Comfort: Geothermal systems provide precise distribution of comfortable air, eliminating hot spots and cold spots. The heating process provides warm air without hot blasts, an experience associated with ordinary gas furnaces. Likewise when cooling, our geothermal systems provide cool, dehumidified air.

Quiet: Unlike a usual outdoor AC or heating unit, there is no noisy unit outside to disturb you or your neighbors. WaterFurnace geothermal systems are designed for quiet operation.

Reliable: A geothermal system is installed indoors, making them less susceptible to wear and tear caused by weather related incidents, like rain, snow, and ice. In addition, geothermal systems have proven to require less maintenance.

Environmentally Friendly: According to the EPA and Department of Energy, a geothermal system is the most environmentally friendly way to heat and cool the home. These systems emit no carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, or any other greenhouse gases considered to be contributors in air pollution. Geothermal systems are truly a natural heat pump!

AP Plumbing & Geothermal is happy to offer geothermal system installations. Geothermal energy has been used to heat and cool homes for many years, taping the Earth's surface for energy to drive the system.

The Truth About Earth Loops

There are three basic geothermal energy sources. A closed-loop system circulated a water-based solution through a "loop system" of underground pipes. Closed-loop systems can be installed horizontally, vertically, or in a pond.

Horizontal Loops: This system is often used when there is adequate land surface available. Depending on your geothermal system's needs, pipes are placed in trenches of various lengths.


Vertical Loops: This is the ideal choice for a geothermal heat pump when there is limited land surface. Small diameter holes are drilled from 100-400 feet deep.



Lake Loops: This is a economical system to install. When a large body of water is available for use, coils of pipe are placed at the bottom of the pond or lake to capture geothermal energy.


Whether the system is open or closed, heat is transferred to or from the structure regardless of the outdoor temperature- thus providing comfort year round!

Geothermal Heat Pumps Growing In Popularity!

AP Plumbing & Geothermal is happy to offer geothermal system installations. WaterFurnace geothermal systems are some of the most efficient, energy saving, environmentally conscious heat pumps a homeowner can purchase. This natural heat pump provides years of reliable heat and safe home comfort at a low cost.

Geothermal heat pumps are growing in popularity across the United States. Over 1,000,000 units are used in residential, commercial, and government buildings to date. Each year, 50,000 additional heat pumps are installed in a home, expressing a more welcoming approach from homeowners to the system.

Compared with other sources of energy, a geothermal heat pump is only in the beginning stage of reaching its potential. While ground source heat has been available for thousands of years, the first heat pump wasn't installed until 1945.

The big question is "what does the future hold for geothermal energy?"

For starters, geothermal energy has the potential to be the greenest heating and cooling system available. To persuade homeowners to purchase and install the system, the U.S. government is offering tax credits for new installations. In addition, some states are offering their own incentives for installing geothermal energy systems. We can also expect to see growth of use in Europe!

Make The Switch From Propane To Geothermal!

Propane prices are on the rise as a result of shortages and rationing. The price of propane in the Midwest, for example, rose from $2.08 per gallon in December to $4.20 per gallon by the end of January! This spike has forced homeowners to consider a more cost effective alternative for heating and cooling the home. Geothermal systems give homeowners security and independence from volatile fuel costs that are always on the rise. Oil, like propane, is a fuel that is inherently unpredictable. The cost of fuel is affected by events that take place all around the world. Because the United States relies on other countries as a source of fuel, we are at the mercy of global politics and the international market.

Geothermal systems remove the third party and allow the homeowner full control over their abode.

WaterFurnace geothermal heat pumps utilize free, renewable energy in your own yard to provide you and your family with consistent, efficient, cost effective home comfort. Geothermal systems allow you to save up to 70% on your utility bills each year! They also provide homeowners the opportunity to receive a tax credit on the total cost of installation, and combined with any state or local incentives, could save you even more!

Furthermore, when a homeowner opts for a geothermal system, they are now provided with an easy, online monitoring system for energy and performance! This real time monitoring system helps with system fine tuning and trouble shooting, keeping problems to a minimum. All monitoring systems include the following features:
  • Automatically created websites
  • Integrated system views
  • Simple to customize
  • Live system images
  • 24/7 online access
  • Visualize performance patterns
