How My Geothermal Heat Pump Really Performed (2 Years). Go to https://surfshark.com/undecided or use code UNDECIDED at checkout to get 4 extra months of Surfshark VPN! I’ve had my geothermal heat pump for the past two years now. It’s been helping me to reach my net zero energy goals in my new house. But getting it installed meant drilling a 400-foot-deep well in my backyard, running a cooling loop into the house through the foundation, and getting everything hooked up inside the house. It’s a little more complicated than your standard air source heat pump setup … and a lot more expensive, too. But was it worth it? I’ve learned a lot over the past two years, and I’ve collected a bunch of data, too. So what can you take away from my experience? And is there anything I’d change if I had it to do over again? Let’s dig into it.
