Are you looking for a cost-efficient, environmentally friendly way to heat and cool your new or existing home or business? Geothermal source heat pumps may be the answer.Geothermal heat pumps are electrically powered systems that tap the stored energy of the greatest solar collector in existence: the earth. These systems use the earth's relatively constant temperature to provide heating, cooling, and hot water for homes and commercial buildings.
As one of the most efficient residential heating and cooling systems available today, geothermal heat pumps produce heating efficiencies that are 50 to 70% higher than other heating systems and 20 to 40% higher than other available air conditioners. That translates into direct savings to you on your utility bills. (Source: International Ground Source Heat Pump Association)

Here is what one customer has to say about her new FHP geothermal system: “We purchased a geothermal heat pump from Mid-City in October 2008. It has proven to be one of the most beneficial additions to our home. Our heating costs have dropped significantly and the quality of heating (and cooling) has improved dramatically! It used to cost over $2000 per heating season to heat our 2000ft home using fuel oil. After the new geothermal system was installed our heating costs have dropped to around $300 per heating season! This system has a payback of 5 years! It is also a very ‘green’ system with no emissions from geothermal heat. The heating is very uniform in our home and there are no temperature fluctuations. With typical heating systems when the furnace kicks on the room gets very warm then gradually cools down, with geothermal the heat in our home remains relatively constant day and night day to day. Another advantage of geothermal is for those wanting to live in areas where fossil fuels are not available. With the geothermal system you can install it anywhere you have electricity! And, they can be installed in as little as 10ft of yard space! We are very pleased with our system and two of our neighbors have upgraded to geothermal systems as well!”Steve & Joyce Watkins

Frequently Asked Questions
- How much does a geothermal heat pump system cost?
- The initial investment is greater than that of a conventional forced-air system. However, when you consider the operating costs of a geothermal heating, cooling, and water heating systems, energy savings quickly offset the initial difference in purchase price. In most cases, investments can be recouped in as little as three years.
- Are there currently any tax incentives for installing a geothermal system?
- YES! Residential geothermal heat pumps installed between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2016 may be eligible for a tax credit equal to 30% of the installed cost – an immense cost savings that can be combined with state and local incentives. For more information go to www.boschtaxcredit.com.
- How long will my geothermal heat pump system last?
- Geothermal heat pump systems are durable and highly reliable. They contain fewer mechanical components, and all components are either buried in the ground or located inside the home, which protects them from outside conditions. The underground pipe carries up to a 50-year warranty.
- How noisy are geothermal heat pumps?
- They are very quiet, providing pleasant environment inside and outside of the home and have no noisy fan units to disturb outdoor activities, on or near the patio.
- Can one system provide both space heating and cooling for my home? And what about heating hot water?
- Yes. A geothermal heat pump can be a combination heating/cooling and hot water heating system. You can change from one mode to another with a simple flick on your indoor thermostat. Using a desuperheater, some geothermal heat pumps can save you up to 50% on your water-heating bill by preheating tank water. (Source: International Ground Source Heat Pump Association)
