Ground vs Air Source Heat Pumps: Geothermal Cost & Benefits

by
An image comparing ground source and air source heat pumps across installation costs, efficiency, and specific system advantages. Acts as a guide to help users evaluate the long-term value, performance, and environmental benefits of each technology.

We’ve evaluated enough residential geothermal installations to know which number actually settles this comparison. It isn’t the installation quote. Its coefficient of performance at extreme cold. When outdoor air drops to 5 degrees Fahrenheit, air source heat pumps fall toward a COP of 1.5 and often activate electric resistance backup. Ground source systems hold between … Read more
