Ground source heat pumps for commercial buildings



For efficient, cost effective heating and cooling, many businesses are turning to ground source heat pumps instead of traditional commercial furnaces and air conditioners. Their versatility makes a ground source heat pump a great option for nearly all types commercial properties, and they can be used in new construction or retrofit for existing structures.


Commercial benefits of ground source heat pumps:

  • Dual heating and cooling capabilities- cool certain areas while heating others
  • Zoning compatibility provides increased control over energy consumptions and the comfort of those inside
  • 50-year warranties on ground loop piping
  • Quiet operation, eliminating disruptions
  • Eliminate copper theft risks of outdoor air conditioning units
  • Lower maintenance needs and cost
  • Requires less indoor space to house mechanical equipment

Ground source heat pumps offer commercial savings:

  • Longer equipment life means less replacement cost versus traditional commercial heating and cooling systems
  • Little maintenance needs, reducing facility maintenance expenses
  • Energy savings of up to 50% annually
  • Save on water heating by using waste heat from the ground source heat pump’s air conditioning cycle
  • Installing a ground source heat pump may qualify your company for rebates from your utility providers, as well as federal tax credits for building owners
  • Lower your facility’s emissions level by using clean, geothermal energy instead of burning fossil fuels
  • Reduce pollution with no external venting in the system’s design
  • Eliminate the need for gas or other utilities used in heating and cooling- ground source heat pump systems are total electric

Ground source heat pumps and geothermal systems offer great advantages for businesses and other organizations occupying commercial facilities. Going geothermal can greatly reduce your facility’s operating costs and will help you develop an environmentally-conscious corporate identity. Smith Sustainable Design is an experienced commercial geothermal system designer and installer, and can help your business make the switch to ground source heat pumps to heat and cool your facility.

My friend wants to get a heating system for his business, but he's not sure how to choose the type of system to use for that. It makes sense that he might want to consider getting geothermal heating for that. It's amazing that geothermal heating can be so energy efficient and end up saving money in the long run.

I agree. Because of their high efficiency and the increasing share of fossil-free sources in electrical grids, heat pumps can play a key role in electrification, the energy transition, and climate change mitigation.
