Geothermal System Applications
WaterFurnace geothermal units can be installed in a wide variety of
applications-- new or old homes, large or small. Although most systems are
simply single units in a forced air application, geothermal systems can also be
used for other types of installations.
Radiant In-Floor Heat:
Some geothermal units can provide hot
water for radiant floor applications,
utilizing tubing encased in the floor. By
circulating warm water through the
tubing, the room is comfortably
conditioned. Since the entire floor acts
as a giant radiator, you'll experience
consistent comfort throughout the
room. Floors covered in tile, wood,
linoleum or stone are kept toasty, even
on the coldest days.
Pool Heating:
Units can also be utilized to heat water
for pools and spas. You'll find a
geothermal unit will heat your pool or
spa for much less than an ordinary pool
heater. And compared to fossil fuel
burning heaters it's much safer. It
eliminates the concerns associated with
the carbon monoxide poisoning.
Ice & Snow Melt:
Using a geothermal unit, you can keep
your sidewalks or driveway free of ice
and snow during the cold winter months.
Eliminate the hazards of walking on
ice-covered sidewalks, and forget the
back-breaking effort of shoveling snow.
Commercial Applications:
In addition to being a smart choice for
residential installations, many commercial
and institutional buildings utilize
geothermal systems including offices,
retail, hotels, apartments/condos, resorts,
schools, hospitals, assisted living centers
and manufacturing facilities.
