Geothermal heating and cooling units utilize the renewable power found deep beneath the earth’s surface. It starts with the sun’s heat getting absorbed into the ground. When this happens, warmth accumulates underground and remains constant regardless of the ever-changing weather outside. Next, geothermal HVAC systems are employed to tap into that warmth and provide comfort for your family. During the colder months, geothermal systems pull heat from the earth and into your home. And, on hotter days, they transfer any unneeded warmth back below the surface.
These systems produce no carbon emissions and are also energy-efficient, which can help save energy and provide your family with the comfort they deserve.
Depending on the model selected, American Standard Geothermal Systems feature:
- Up to 30% greater efficiency than two-stage geothermal heat pumps, with ratings of 40+ EER and 5+ COP.
- Variable-capacity compressor and variable-speed blower motor for the highest level of comfort and efficiency.
- Vibration-dampened compressors and a fully-insulated cabinet, long-lasting, specially coated coils and a durable polymer drain pan to ward off bacterial growth and corrosion.
- Optional hot water heating.
