How Geothermal Works

The temperature throughout the year will always vary no matter what climate you live in. For some climates that means hot summers that cool to ice-cold winters, and Columbus is no exception. What most people don't realize is that the temperature underground (regardless of climate or season) stays relatively consistent all year long.

The ground is able to sustain a higher rate of temperature consistency because it absorbs 47% of the sun’s energy (heat) as it impacts the Earth’s surface. WaterFurnace geothermal systems are able to tap into this free energy with an earth loop. This technology is then utilized to provide your home or office with central heating and cooling.

Geothermal Heating

During the heating cycle, a WaterFurnace geothermal heat pump uses the earth loop to draw heat from the ground. As the system pulls heat from the loop it circulates it through a conventional duct system as warm air. The same heat energy can also be utilized for a radiant floor system or domestic hot water heating. The geothermal heating process can keep your home warm on even the coldest winter days.

Geothermal Cooling

The heating process is reversed in the cooling mode - creating cool, conditioned air all through the home. Instead of extracting heat from the ground, heat is taken from the air in your home and either moved back into the earth loop, or used to preheat the water in your hot water tank.

How Does Geothermal HVAC Help the Environment?
