It does both heat and ac. We went with a horizontal system that takes about 1/2 acers since we have plenty of land. The system installed was less than 15k with the tax credits, but that was a few years ago.

shanie@kbin.social 10 months agoDo you have a geothermal heat pump too for AC/Heat? What was the cost on that? And how much land does the geothermal system take up nowadays?

There are multiple ways to do geothermal. We have 2 I believe 150ft closed loops that live around 6’ under the yard. They also have vertical bore loops that go straight down which require way less land. Lastly is open loop, which would be a set of lines that run to a pond, or i guess any body of water to do that heat exchanging.
