Now that you have become acquainted with how geothermal works in Boone with the
first part of our series, it's time to investigate the pump and how it generates the heat for your home or business. This post will cover the inner workings of a geothermal heat pump, and hopefully shed some light on the energy savings that are trapped beneath your feet.
There are two main parts to a geothermal heat pump that work jointly to heat and cool your building: the condenser and the evaporator coil. The condenser will extract the existing heat that is stored in the ground, while the evaporator coil will work with the heat inside the home. Thus, the heat pump works by moving heat from one part to another depending on whether you need heating or cooling.
All of our
geothermal heat pumps are designed to maximize your heating and cooling efficiencies.
