How Do I Work Out Whether Geothermal Heating and Cooling Is Right for My Denver Home?

If there’s anyone out there who still doesn’t know about the rewards of geothermal heating and cooling, you might very well inquire if they’ve been living underground. Of course, those people would more than likely miss the irony of your question, since the source of geothermal heating and cooling lies underground.

At present, though, most Denver homeowners have heard at least something about the rewards of a geothermal HVAC system. More of them are mulling one over, too – either as a replacement or upgrade to their existing system or as the system they install in that new home they’re having built for them.

Considering converting to geothermal yourself? Well, the benefits certainly are attractive:

• Trading your old-fashioned HVAC system for a geothermal one could help you lower your heating and cooling costs by as much as 80 percent!
• Geothermal heating and cooling systems are amazingly energy efficient. That, plus the fact that they don’t fight the environment, but work with it, make them the most environmentally friendly HVAC systems you could own.
• Thanks to the options geothermal systems offer – package units, split systems, and duel-fuel systems, for example – you can better insure that the system you select is the most efficient and effective for your Denver home.
• Geothermal heating and cooling systems are designed, engineered, built, and installed for generations of dependable performance. The fact that they have so few parts, need less maintenance, have vertical or horizontal loops installed underground or in ponds or wells, and call for the heat-exchange equipment to be situated indoors, out of the weather, makes a considerable difference.
• A geothermal heating and cooling system can be installed any time of the year. The weather and the temperature are no impediment, and no added fees are charged for “seasonal reasons.”
• Very little of your yard space is needed for a geothermal heating and cooling system. And what space is necessary is inconspicuous; your home and landscaping will lose none of the “curb appeal” you work hard to keep up.
• Finally, geothermal heating and cooling systems are becoming ever more feasible from a cost perspective – even without the current availability of federal tax credits and rebates. Advances in system design and manufacturing processes as well as greater competition in the marketplace are what’s helping drive costs down.
