What is Geothermal Energy?

Geothermal energy allows you to tap into the Earth’s stable temperatures just beneath the surface. A geothermal system operates via a network of underground pipes, filled with a thermally conductive fluid, to facilitate heat exchange with the Earth. Unlike traditional HVAC systems, geothermal units aren’t large and conspicuous, helping you maintain your property’s aesthetic appeal.
