Fry - Residential Geothermal #1

¿Cómo funciona la energía geotérmica?

The earth absorbs energy from the sun and stores it in the ground. A geothermal system extracts that energy for home heating during the winter. For cooling, the system removes heat from the home and places it into the cooler earth. This transfer of heat energy is done through a series of pipes either buried in the ground, sunk in a pond, or by using well water. 

Why Choose Geothermal?

Geothermal systems provide homeowners with a wide range of benefits

  • Savings Geothermal systems can offer lower operating costs compared to ordinary forced-air heating and cooling systems. Those savings can be as high as 70% in annual heating and cooling costs. Though, open loop systems may require more complex maintenance due to the use of natural water and potential for mineral deposits. 


  • Comodidad. Estos sistemas proporcionan una temperatura uniforme en toda la casa durante todo el año, con una excelente deshumidificación durante la refrigeración. Al aprovechar la temperatura ambiente de la Tierra, se puede mantener fácilmente una temperatura agradable en el interior.


  • Reducción del impacto ambiental: La energía geotérmica es una tecnología renovable que puede reducir tu huella de carbono ahora y para las generaciones futuras. De hecho, una sola bomba de calor geotérmica puede reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero en 11 toneladas métricas durante sus 20 años de vida útil, lo que equivale a retirar dos automóviles de la circulación.


  • Fiabilidad: Las unidades geotérmicas son conocidas por su durabilidad y pueden funcionar durante años con poco mantenimiento. Además, las bombas de calor y los aires acondicionados convencionales se ubican al aire libre y están expuestos al desgaste causado por temperaturas extremas, lluvia, nieve, granizo y contaminación, lo que puede reducir su vida útil. Dado que las unidades geotérmicas se ubican en interiores, pueden durar más de 20 años.


  • Quiet Operation Unlike ordinary air conditioners and heat pumps, no outdoor unit is required. Geothermal units use heavy-duty, fully insulated cabinets for quiet operation. Quiet, soft-starting, variable-speed blowers are used in many models. 


  • Flexibility Geothermal comfort systems can provide heating, cooling, and supplemental water heating from a single unit with a wide variety of models and options to fit most applications. 



  • Versatilidad y agua caliente: El calor residual generado por el funcionamiento del sistema puede utilizarse para complementar el calentador de agua de la vivienda. Los sistemas de circuito abierto pueden cumplir múltiples funciones, lo que los hace muy rentables si también se necesita agua para otras aplicaciones, como los aspersores.


  • Reduce Energy Independence Geothermal systems can reduce our need to import fuel. An open loop with a deep well is the most efficient option due to the use of pure water and the greater thermal stability at depths. 


Energía renovable procedente de la Tierra

Geothermal systems can be installed with a variety of loop system configurations. “Closed loops” use recirculated fluid in a series of pipes installed vertically, horizontally, or in a pond. “Open loops” use well water. Fry Heating, Cooling, & Plumbing will determine which design works best for your home. 


Geothermal systems use renewable energy from the earth, so the technology is one that can reduce your carbon footprint. Imagine the impact of the reduced emissions resulting from every current geothermal comfort system installation today. 

Let's Compare!

Tipos de circuitos geotérmicos con énfasis en la eficiencia de la transferencia térmica y la funcionalidad multiuso.

Horizontal Loops

Se utiliza en terrenos de mayor tamaño. Se instala con una retroexcavadora o una zanjadora.


  • La eficiencia térmica es menor debido a la poca profundidad; el suelo tiene menor conductividad térmica cerca de la superficie.
  • Multi-use Not applicable; dedicated solely to the HVAC system. 
  • Fluid Type Typically, a water-glycol mix, reducing thermal transfer efficiency compared to pure water. 

Vertical Loops

Se utiliza cuando el terreno es limitado o las condiciones del suelo impiden la instalación de bucles horizontales. Se instala mediante una plataforma de perforación.


  • La eficiencia térmica es mayor a medida que el circuito se extiende más profundamente en el suelo, donde la conductividad térmica es mejor.
  • Multi-use Not applicable; dedicated solely to the HVAC system. 
  • Tipo de fluido: Normalmente una mezcla de agua y glicol, lo que reduce la eficiencia de transferencia de calor en comparación con el agua pura.

Bucles abiertos

Circuito de tubería para estanques: Se fabrican rollos de tubería que se sumergen hasta el fondo del estanque. Circuito de agua de pozo: Se puede utilizar agua de un pozo existente y luego descargarla en una zanja de drenaje o estanque.

 

  • Eficiencia térmica muy alta; el agua natural posee excelentes propiedades de transferencia de calor. La ausencia de mezcla con glicol diluye la capacidad de transferencia de calor.
  • Multi-use Highly versatile; water from the well can be used for sprinkler systems, irrigation, or other property needs. 
  • Fluid Type Pure water, optimizing thermal transfer. 

Para un mayor nivel de eficiencia

Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs): For the pumps, which adjust speed based on real-time requirements, thereby saving energy.

Up to 70% Savings on Heating, Cooling, and Hot Water

One of the main reasons many homeowners choose geothermal is the benefit of lower operating costs. The cost for heating, cooling, and hot water can combine for up to 75% of a home’s total utility costs. Therefore, the biggest opportunity to save in utility costs is to improve those systems. That’s where geothermal can help in a big way.

For every one unit of energy purchased, a geothermal system can deliver up to four units of energy because it uses energy from the earth. In many scenarios, a geothermal system is significantly less expensive to operate than ordinary forced air heating and cooling systems. Geothermal systems can save up to 70% in annual heating and cooling costs and can save energy on domestic hot water costs. 

One way to compare heating efficiency is to calculate the cost for 1 million BTUs of heat transfer. Using a standard formula, an “apples to apples” comparison can be made based on local fuel rates and equipment efficiency. The table at right demonstrates a typical savings opportunity with geothermal. To get the full picture for your home, contact Fry Heating, Cooling, & Plumbing.

Your Geothermal FAQs...

Answered by FRY!

  • La eficiencia real dependerá de varios factores, pero, en general, una bomba de calor geotérmica puede ser entre dos y cinco veces más eficiente en la producción de calor que una caldera de gas, propano o petróleo, según la cantidad de energía consumida para producir una cantidad determinada de calor. Para la refrigeración, un sistema geotérmico (30,0 EER) puede ser hasta tres veces más eficiente que un aire acondicionado aerotérmico (10,0 EER).

  • ¿Por qué son tan eficientes las bombas de calor geotérmicas?

    Geothermal heat pumps use the ground temperature as a “source” for heat energy to help warm your home and use the ground as a heat “sink” during cooling. The earth acts as a giant energy battery, providing an endless, renewable source for heating and cooling comfort. Standard heat pumps use outdoor air for heating and cooling. Because the ground temperature is much more moderate and stable than air temperatures, geothermal system operation is much more energy efficient, especially at extreme outdoor temperatures. 

  • Yes. Geothermal units are not subject to some of the same forces that cause wear and tear on other types of systems. And earth loops are installed using a special grade of polyethylene pipe with heat-fused fittings designed for durability and long life.

  • It depends on several factors. Homes on larger lots usually have horizontal loops installed. Smaller lots may require a vertical loop. A nearby pond can also be used. If you have a well water system, that may be an option. Fry Heating, Cooling, & Plumbing is trained to determine which loop design is most appropriate for your home. Regardless of the loop system selected, the operating costs are all about the same.

  • ¿Cuánto espacio se necesita para un sistema de circuito cerrado?

    The smallest closed loop design, the vertical loop, may require a space of only 15×15 feet, or a line of 3×45 feet, located at least 10 feet away from the home and 10 feet from property lines. Horizontal loops require considerably more space. 

  • Fry Heating, Cooling, & Plumbing uses geothermal system design software to determine the most appropriately sized unit and loop for your home. The software takes many factors into consideration, including the heating and cooling requirements of the home, loop type, depth, soil conditions, earth temperatures, outdoor air temperature extremes, local fuel rates, and much more. In addition, the software can demonstrate energy costs for a geothermal system versus another type of heating and cooling system. 

  • No. Antifreeze in the loop fluid eliminates any concerns about freezing.

  • Yes. Prior to using a well for a geothermal installation, the water quality must be checked. Sufficient water volume is needed for the unit, usually about four to nine gallons per minute during unit operation. A discharge location like a pond or drainage ditch is also required. 

  • For most installations, the pond should have a surface area of at least a half acre and a minimum depth of 10 feet. Bigger is better.

  • La eficiencia energética de un sistema geotérmico se evalúa mediante la norma industrial ARI/ISO 13256-1, que especifica las condiciones para determinarla. El coeficiente de rendimiento (COP) para calefacción representa la relación entre la energía utilizada para operar la unidad y la energía que produce. Las unidades geotérmicas de mayor eficiencia tienen un COP superior a 4,5 (un 450 % de eficiencia), en comparación con una bomba de calor aerotérmica de alta eficiencia, cuyo COP promedio estacional ronda el 1,8.


    La clasificación de la refrigeración se denomina Índice de Eficiencia Energética (EER). Se calcula dividiendo la potencia en vatios (WTU/hora) entre la potencia en BTU/hora. Las unidades geotérmicas de mayor eficiencia de Carrier tienen un EER de entre 20,0 y 30,0. Esto representa una eficiencia de dos a tres veces superior a la de muchos aires acondicionados y bombas de calor. Sin embargo, dado que las unidades geotérmicas no se clasifican según el mismo estándar industrial que las calderas, los aires acondicionados y las bombas de calor, resulta difícil comparar, por ejemplo, el AFUE y el HSPF con el COP, o el SEER con el EER. Para comprender la eficiencia energética en su totalidad, conviene comparar los costos.

  • ¿Se sacrifica la comodidad para lograr toda esta eficiencia?

    No. In fact, geothermal systems in Toledo areas can provide exceptional comfort without the “cold blow” from some standard air source heat pumps during heating or short, hot blasts of air associated with some standard efficiency gas furnaces. Geothermal units deliver air at temperatures that provide comfort throughout the house. The dual capacity units with variable-speed fans precisely match the needs of the home to deliver comfort no matter what the outdoor air temperature is. 

  • ¿Y qué hay de la calefacción por suelo radiante?

    A geothermal system can be designed to provide warm water for radiant floor applications. A water-to-water geothermal units are much more efficient than today’s best boilers in Toledo. 

  • Yes. Some homeowners like the benefits of both technologies. In this case, a geothermal “split” unit (compressor only) is connected to a furnace and cooling coil. The geothermal unit will perform all the cooling and some of the heating. During the coldest days, the system can switch over to furnace operation to provide the warmest air temperatures and maximum capacity. The most cost effective “balance point” can be predetermined by the dealer to maximize efficiency and comfort. This HYBRID HEAT® system may be a good choice for a replacement installation or a new home. 

  • Los sistemas geotérmicos suelen ser más caros de instalar que los sistemas convencionales. En el caso de instalaciones de reemplazo, el costo adicional se recupera más rápido de lo que se piensa gracias a la alta eficiencia energética de la geotermia. En una vivienda nueva, donde el costo adicional del sistema se puede incluir en la hipoteca, el ahorro energético mensual puede ser mayor que el costo adicional, lo que proporciona al propietario un flujo de caja positivo desde el primer día. Muchos propietarios consideran que un sistema geotérmico es una excelente inversión.
