Benefits of Opting for a Geothermal Heat Pump
There’s no harm in installing a geothermal heat pump in a residential setting as well. The reason why these heat pumps are generally recommended for commercial use is that they tend to be costlier and more difficult to install. They can, however, handle larger capacities, and will usually warm up or cool down a space much more efficiently.
Here are some ways that a geothermal option may surpass an air source one. Geothermal heat pumps tend to be:
- More efficient at warming up a space
- Longer lasting and durable
- More consistent in temperature maintenance
- Filled with more features and functions
We offer specials year-round, a 12 months no interest, and no payment plan for all installations. We recognize that some HVAC projects are pricier than others. We don’t want you to shy away from getting heat pumps simply because of the cost. If you’re on a budget, take advantage of the Energize CT Heat Loan program. You may be eligible for a low-interest loan of up to $15,000 that can be billed directly on your monthly electric bill.
