Geothermal Energy for Your Home
Geothermal heating and cooling uses the stable temperature of the earth to keep your home comfortable year-round — dramatically reducing your energy bills and carbon footprint.
How It Works
A geothermal heat pump circulates fluid through underground pipes (called a ground loop) to exchange heat with the earth. In winter, it pulls warmth from the ground into your home. In summer, it reverses the process, cooling your home by transferring heat back underground.
Benefits
- 50-70% reduction in heating costs
- 30-50% reduction in cooling costs
- 25+ year lifespan for the heat pump, 50+ years for the ground loop
- Quiet operation — no outdoor compressor unit
- No combustion — no carbon monoxide risk
- Eligible for federal and provincial rebates
Is Geothermal Right for Your Property?
Geothermal works on most residential properties. Vertical loop systems need very little yard space, while horizontal loops are ideal for larger lots. A qualified installer will assess your soil conditions, lot size, and heating needs to design the perfect system.
