There are lots of benefists of
using GEOTHERMAL HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS (GHPs)
but the biggest one is lower energy consuption as they use 25% do 50% less electricity
than conventional heating or cooling systems. This means that GHP use one unit
of eletricity to move three units of heat from earth. US Environmental
Protection Agency says that geothermal heat pumps reduce energy consumption and
emissions up to 44% compared with air-source heat pumps and up to 75% compared
with standard air-conditioning equipment. GHPs are also effective in humid
areas as they improve humidity control by maintaining about 50% relative indoor
humidity.
When installing GHP you can have greater flexibility as they
can be installed in new an retrofit situations. The system requires less space
and rooms can be greatly scaled down, freeing space for other uses. Because of
few moving parts the systems are very reliable and durable. Underground
components (loop or piping) often carry warranties up to 60 years and the heat
pumps last up to 20 or more years.
GHPs have no outside condensing units like air conditioners,
so there's no concern about noise outside the home. A two-speed GHP system is
so quiet inside a house that users usually do not know it is operating.
I hope you you will find this informations usefull when
looking into depths of heothermal heat pump systems.
