Ductless heat pump is worth the higher investment
Geothermal heat pumps are significantly more overpriced than more conventional temperature control options, then however, these innovative systems combine both heating and cooling capacity and also provide a virtually free source of overheated water, and using only a minimal amount of electricity to run the heat pump and draw from the abundant and free energy stored naturally in the earth, the operation is extremely cost-effective! Geothermal heat pumps take advantage of the relatively stable fifty to sixty degree temperature found underground all year round, regardless of the weather conditions… The plan simply transfers existing heat between the inside of the condo and the ground.
The most energy-efficient conventional plan achieves up to a 98% efficiency.
A geothermal heat pump offers efficiency ratings somewhere between 300 and 500%. Along with significantly lower running costs, there are available tax credits to help with startup expenses, however because the plan can save up to 68% on utility bills for heating, cooling and overheated water, the investment is usually reuseed in under several years. There’s also the benefit of exceptional comfort. The plan doesn’t dry out the air during the winter, handles excess humidity during the summer time and helps to filter out air contaminants all year long. By eliminating the outdoor condenser unit, geothermal heat pumps are absolutely unobtrusive and quiet. There is no combustion process, eliminating problems over carbon monoxide, fumes, stinks and redhouse gasses. They are considered by the US Environmental Protection Agency to be the most environmentally responsible option for heating and cooling. Another advantage is that the one component handles both heating and cooling. There are fewer moving parts to wear out, reducing the chance of malfunction. Because the heat pump is installed inside the condo and protected from the weather, it can be expected to last upwards of twenty years. The underground loop is warrantied for fifty years.
