Farm Green with Geothermal HVAC Solutions

What is Geothermal Heating & Cooling?

Geothermal heating and cooling systems use the earth’s stable temperatures to efficiently heat and cool your home, business or shop. In winter, they draw heat from the ground; in summer, they release heat into the ground. This process uses underground pipes filled with a water-based solution to transfer heat.

For agricultural producers and small businesses in Idaho, geothermal systems can cut energy costs by up to 70% compared to traditional systems. They offer long-term savings on utility bills, lower maintenance costs, and reduce your carbon footprint. With REAP funding, switching to geothermal heating and cooling is both a smart financial move and an environmentally friendly choice.
