Residential
geothermal systems are a great way to use the earth’s natural heating and
cooling cycle to heat and cool your home efficiently in San Antonio. If you are
unfamiliar with the way that geothermal technology works, consider the
following.
During the warmer months, a heat pump brings hot air out of
your home and processes it through a series of pipes that are buried anywhere
from 3 to 6 feet or even 150 feet to 400 feet depending on the geography of
your area, available space, composition of soil, etc. Water circulates through
these piping loops or even to a nearby water source and returns as cool
dehumidified air back into your home for ultimate comfort.
During the winter months, geothermal heating uses the
earth’s natural heat energy to warm your home to a comfortable level using the
same basic pumping and looping mechanism as in the summer. If you can’t believe
how it could be that amazing and efficient, please call us at 1st Choice Air
