A geoexchange heating and cooling system uses the consistent temperature of the earth to provide heating, cooling, and hot water for both residential and commercial buildings. Water is circulated through polyethelene pipes in closed loops that are installed below the earth's surface. These loops can be buried horizontally in the ground or submersed in a pond. The loops are connected to an extended-range water source heat pump installed in your home. Click here for more information on how TERRASource systems work.

Yes you can. Our system is pre-engineered to make the installation process simple that anyone can do it. Everything is color coded and labeled to eliminate any guess work.

TERRASource offers a unique ground loop system that you will only find with Geothermal DIY or a TERRASource Distributor. Our ground loops come pre-filled with antifreeze and equipped with quick connect fittings which enables the consumer to bury the loops according to the specifications provided (i.e. trench length, width and spacing). Each loop has quick-connect fittings and manual shut off valves that slide onto manifold ports. Just add water, and the antifreeze will mix throughout the loop field while it purges the air from the system.

The manifold is equipped with an 8’ 110 volt power cord and a 25’ colored micro plug control wire that plugs directly into the heat pump. We provide everything you need except for the digging and duct work, pre wired for a “plug and play” installation. There no special tools to purchase for the installation of a TERRASource Geothermal System.

Once your TERRASource geothermal system has been installed, in most cases’ you can see the savings immediately. For example . if your average heating and cooling cost are $7000.00 annually you could save up too an estimated $4200.00 dollars per year. This doesn’t include the estimated 30% saved annually on your domestic water heating or the $400 dollar rebate offered by the Energy star program.

Once you install your TERRASource geothermal system, in most cases, you will see the savings immediately. Energy savings can range from 30% to 60% annually compared to conventional heating & cooling systems. Depending on the state you live, there are incentives available from federal and state governments and some utility providers which can further reduce your overall system costs. With eliminating the high contractor installation costs and utilizing some of the rebates available, your TERRASource geothermal systems should pay for itself in less than five years. With today’s rising energy costs the investment you make today will pay dividends long into the future and with our TERRASource system, we have made it easy!
