What Is a Geothermal Heat Pump?
Geothermal heat pumps use the Earth’s constant temperature to transfer heat for optimal home comfort.
When it’s hot, the system removes heat from the interior of your home and disperses it back into the ground. When it’s cold, the system will draw heat out of the ground and disperse it throughout your home. This makes for a highly versatile, affordable system that operates year-round.
The system uses fluid that circulates through loops of pipe underground. Because no combustion is involved, the system is far more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient than gas-powered HVAC systems.

Geothermal System Installation & Replacement
United Air Temp can help whether you’re replacing your geothermal heat pump or using it as an HVAC replacement for another unit type. There are three key phases in the process.
- Design: The goal of any geothermal system is to utilize as close to 100% of the energy available. The design accounts for home size, energy demands, soil types, and more factors.
- Outdoor installation: We drill into your lawn and install the loop. Whether the loop field is vertical or horizontal depends on space and the condition of the soil.
- Indoor installation: With the loop in place, we move to the interior, where we perform necessary ductwork alterations and provide the heat pump, thermostat, and various additional components. We then calibrate the system to ensure function.
The indoor components should last for 20 years, which is comparable to a furnace, but the underground infrastructure should last for 25 to 50 years, making it a wise investment.
