What Is Geothermal Heating?
Geothermal heating is a sustainable and energy-efficient heating system that utilizes the natural heat stored beneath the Earth’s surface. This technology taps into the Earth’s stable temperature to provide warmth for homes and commercial spaces. A network of pipes called a geothermal heat pump system circulates a heat-transfer fluid through the ground, absorbing heat during the winter and dissipating excess heat during the summer.

Repair
Even the most well-maintained heat pump can experience malfunctions. Be on the lookout for the following signs that indicate it’s time to schedule professional geothermal heat pump repair:
- Uneven temperature distribution
- Reduced energy efficiency
- Strange noises during operation
- Poor airflow
- Constant on-off cycling
- Water leaks
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is the best way to protect your system against premature repairs and replacements. Because they provide heating and cooling to your home, geothermal heat pumps should receive professional maintenance twice annually — once before the summer and once before the winter.
Sticking to a routine maintenance schedule can help extend your system’s life span, improve its overall performance and reliability, and decrease energy bills by enhancing efficiency.
