GEO-
means EARTH
THERMAL - means HEAT
Geothermal ENERGY
is power that is extracted
from heat stored in the earth.
The remarkable thing about
Geothermal Energy is that it is
an unlimited resource. It
provides safe, reliable, and
energy efficient heating and
cooling from one piece of
equipment.
Geothermal SYSTEMS work
through a well or series of
wells, which are drilled deep
into the ground. A series
of fluid-filled loops (open loop
or closed loop) are placed
underground. The fluid
absorbs heat from the ground and
is transported back to your
home, generating heat via a
geothermal pump.
