However, a lot of planning is required to properly size your geothermal system. Every step of the way, Patriot Air Comfort Systems will be there to help. We are the Columbus geothermal installer to call! When it comes to determining the size a geothermal system in Columbus, there are several factors that should be taken into account. We look at everything from the square footage of your home to the size of the property it resides on. Three important factors that determine the heating and cooling capacity your geothermal installation needs include the following: This size of your property will have a vital impact on the type of geothermal pipe system that you can install. Horizontal loop systems are cost-effective, but require substantial amount of land. If your house is situated on a smaller piece of property, then the installation of a vertical loop system is required. The size of your home will play a major factor in which unit you will need as well. A smaller, single-story house will need less capacity to warm and cool than a two-story home. Do you have ductwork that can be used for the new geothermal system? If your house is lacking a ductwork system due to a heating/cooling system that does not use forced air, you will need to have ducts installed to use the geothermal unit. All of these items, and many more like them, are options that we will help you with when it comes to picking out the right geothermal system for your home. Contact Patriot Air Comfort Systems today, and experience the comfort and savings a properly installed geothermal system will provide. Back To News
