Heating Efficiency (closed loop)
Closed-loop heating efficiency refers to the geothermal heat pump's ability to transfer heat from the earth to a home using a closed loop of underground pipes. The efficiency is measured in Coefficient of Performance (COP), which represents the ratio of heat output to the amount of electrical energy consumed. A higher COP indicates greater efficiency, meaning the system can provide more heating for less energy use.
Heating Efficiency (open loop)
Open-loop heating efficiency refers to a geothermal heat pump's ability to use a water source, such as a well or a nearby lake, to transfer heat into a home. The efficiency is measured in Coefficient of Performance (COP), which represents the ratio of heat delivered to the amount of energy consumed. A higher COP indicates better efficiency, meaning the system can deliver more heating for less energy input, with the water source acting as a constant heat reservoir.
Cooling Efficiency (closed loop)
Closed-loop cooling efficiency for a geothermal heat pump refers to the system's ability to remove heat from a home by transferring it to the ground through a closed loop of underground pipes. The efficiency is measured in Coefficient of Performance (COP), which indicates the ratio of cooling output to the energy input. A higher COP signifies better efficiency, meaning the system can provide more cooling for less energy consumption, with the earth acting as a stable and efficient heat sink.
Cooling Efficiency (open loop)
Open-loop cooling efficiency for a geothermal heat pump refers to the system's ability to remove heat from a home by using a water source, such as a well or pond, to absorb the heat. The efficiency is measured in Coefficient of Performance (COP), which represents the ratio of cooling output to the electrical energy consumed. A higher COP indicates better efficiency, meaning the system can remove more heat for less energy use, with the water source providing a reliable and consistent means for heat exchange.
+ No Hassle Replacement™ Limited Warranty: If compressor, coil or heat exchanger fails due to defect during the applicable No Hassle Replacement limited warranty time period, a one-time replacement with a comparable unit will be provided.
1. To the original owner, when installed in a residence, a 10-year parts and labor limited warranty upon timely registration of equipment. Warranty period is 10 years on parts and 5 years on labor if not registered within 90 days of installation. Original owners residing in jurisdictions that prohibit warranty benefits conditioned on registration will automatically receive a 10-year parts and labor limited warranty. See warranty certificate for details.
