What is geothermal?
Work with nature. Feel the difference at home.
Air temperatures can swing from season to season. Below the surface, the ground stays relatively stable.
A ground-source heat pump uses that stability as a source of heat in winter and a place to release heat in summer. It’s a different approach to the same goal: a home that feels comfortable, with energy use considered from the beginning.

How it works
Three parts. One thoughtful system.
A common closed-loop system connects your property, your equipment, and your indoor comfort.
- Step 1
The ground loop
Buried piping circulates a fluid to exchange heat with the ground. Loop layout depends on the site; horizontal and vertical designs have different space and installation needs.
- Step 2
The heat pump
Indoor equipment transfers heat between the ground-loop fluid and your home. Electricity powers the process, which reverses between heating and cooling modes.
- Step 3
Your home
Compatible ducts or other distribution systems deliver comfort to your rooms. Controls, airflow, and system sizing help the whole installation work together.
The potential is real. The right fit is personal.
Efficient heat transfer
Use ground temperatures to support heating and cooling efficiency.
Steady comfort
A properly designed system can support consistent indoor conditions.
A long-term approach
Ground-loop infrastructure is a significant, lasting part of the investment.

What we’ll want to understand
- Your home’s heating and cooling loads
- Available land and equipment access
- Ground conditions and local requirements
- Existing ductwork and electrical capacity
- Your budget and long-term comfort goals
Ground-loop installation can involve drilling or excavation. Scope, site restoration, permits, and ongoing care should all be discussed before work begins.
Equipment & system design
Choose the system, not just a product.
Ground-source equipment, loop design, controls, and distribution need to work together. Depending on the project, options may include variable-capacity equipment or hot-water support. Current product availability, specifications, warranties, and suitability are confirmed during your consultation, not assumed from a generic catalog.

Plan with current information.
Source checked September 11, 2026
The federal Residential Clean Energy Credit is not available for property placed in service after December 31, 2025, according to the IRS.
That is a change from older guidance you may have seen. We do not include this expired residential credit as an assumed discount for a new installation.
State and utility programs are separate and may have different terms, funding, and eligibility. Confirm current rules with the relevant program administrator and a qualified tax adviser before relying on an incentive. This is general information, not tax advice.
A little peace of mind
Curious about what’s below the surface?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer for your home. We’re here to help you find yours.
Ask our teamIs my property a good fit for geothermal?
Available land, ground conditions, access for drilling or excavation, utilities, local requirements, and your home’s heating and cooling needs all matter. A property-specific assessment is needed before selecting a loop design.
Can geothermal be installed in an existing home?
Often it can be considered, but the existing ductwork, electrical supply, space for equipment, and access for ground-loop installation must be reviewed. Retrofitting is a design exercise, not a direct equipment swap in every home.
How much will I save?
There is no universal savings percentage. Your current system, energy rates, building efficiency, system design, weather, and how you operate the equipment affect the result. Ask for a comparison based on your property and realistic assumptions.
Does geothermal still need electricity?
Yes. A geothermal heat pump uses electricity to operate its compressor, fans, and pumps. It exchanges heat with the ground; it does not generate electricity for your home.
Does a 2026 residential installation qualify for the federal clean energy credit?
As checked September 11, 2026, the IRS states that the Residential Clean Energy Credit is not available for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. Other state or utility programs have their own rules. Verify current eligibility with the program administrator and your tax adviser.
