Several of you asked me about the differences between air-source heat pumps and geothermal / ground-source heat pumps. The big two questions are usually: 1. Which one is worth it”?, meaning are the lower operating expenses worth the higher upfront cost, in this case of ground-source heat pumps compared to air-to-water heat pumps. 2. Do air-source heat pumps really work in cold climates? The video digs deep into pricing including a financial model for air-to-water and ground-source heat pumps compared to oil furnaces. • 0:00 - Introduction • 0:27 - 1) Similarities between Air-To-Air and Ground-Source Heat Pumps • 0:41 - Efficiency • 1:07 - Low-maintenance • 1:39 - Future-Proof - Independence of fossil fuels • 1:59 - 2) Differences between Air-To-Air and Ground-Source Heat Pumps • 2:15 - How Air-To-Water and Ground-Source Heat Pumps Work - Functionality and Designs • 3:04 - Water tank for air-to-water • 3:54 - Efficiency • 4:40 - Cold-climate air-to-water heat pumps • 5:31 - Cost comparison - Air-To-Water and Ground-Source - Upfront costs and Costs over the Lifetime • 6:48 - Unknowns • 7:10 - Rebates, Regulations, Inflation Reduction Act • 7:18 - Peace of Mind, Environmental Friendliness, Air Quality, and Comfort • Plug in your numbers into the financial model and share your thoughts with us: • https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/... • Note: All types of ground-source heat pumps are often referred to as geothermal. However, for ground-source heat pumps the heat can come form either the sun heating up the earth or the core of the earth. For geothermal systems the heat comes from the core of the earth. • Your subscription to the channel goes a long way: • https://www.youtube.com/@NetZeroTech?... • See you on Patreon: • / netzerotech • Thank you for watching! 🙏
