According to the department of energy geothermal heat pumps use 25-50 percent less electricity than conventional air cooled heat pumps. they also can reduce energy emissions by up to 72 percent when compared to air cooled heat pumps and electric resistive heat. Other benefits include better zoning control and humidity control.
The department of energy also said that the current level of geothermal heating and cooling we currently have saves over one million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions every year. Also these units help save the ozone. these systems come factory sealed and almost never leak refrigerant that could damage the ozone. This also help reduce the amount of green house gasses introduced into the atmosphere photo from the University of Virgina Tech
