Here are some considerations if you're going to replace your current heating system:
Should You Install A Heat Pump?
The biggest advantage is that heat pumps provide one system that will heat your home in the winter and cool it in the summer. During the heating season, heat pumps function the same way as air conditioners, using refrigerant to extract heat from the air in your home and a fan to recirculate. During the winter, heat pumps operate like an air conditioner in reverse, pulling heat energy from the outside air and circulating it throughout your house. Because heat pumps don't actually burn any type of fuel to produce heat, they are one of the most energy-efficient heating systems around. The only real disadvantage of a heat pump in the winter is that when the outside temperature gets extremely cold (below 30 degrees), these systems use supplemental resistance heating coils to generate enough hot air to keep your house warm. Resistance heat is nowhere as efficient as the "air conditioner in reverse mode" and therefore heat pumps are not as popular in northern climates. However, heat pumps are an excellent choice for homeowners in Easton and the Eastern Shore.
Geothermal Heat Pumps Are Extremely Efficient
Geothermal heat pumps capture heat produced by the earth and harness that energy to heat and cool your home. In most cases, the earth is cooler than the air in the summer and warmer than the air in the winter, which makes geothermal heat pumps the most efficient heat pump system because they take advantage of the relatively stable temperature of the earth.
There are two types of geothermal heat pumps. A horizontal closed loop geothermal heat pump has a large pipe buried in trenches about 4 – 6 feet below ground. When the geothermal heat pump turns on, a separate pump is activated and circulates water around the pipes and this provides the heat exchange. This type of system requires a significant amount of underground space to install.
A vertical closed loop geothermal heat pump installation requires much less horizontal land space. Piping is run down a hole about 100 feet deep. and the vertical piping works much the same way as a horizontal closed loop geothermal heat pump.
Both types of geothermal heat pumps are much more expensive than traditional heat pumps to install. However, they are much more efficient and less expensive to operate and typically pay for themselves within a matter of five to seven years. Geothermal heat pumps last longer than most air source heat pumps. Additionally, some geothermal heat pumps are efficient enough to provide hot water.
