The Cost of a Geothermal System can vary depending on a number of design factors. The method of installation also plays a large part of the overall cost. Vertical drilling tends to cost more than horizontal and or pond/lake loops. A heat loss analysis is required to determine the best system for each home. An undersized system will have trouble providing the heating and cooling needs and an oversized system could cost the client thousands in unnecessary installation cost. Quest looks at the overall size and construction quality of the building as well as the insulation properties of the overall home. The windows and doors age and quality as well as the climate the home is in to determine the best priced most economical system. Quest Geothermal offers flexible financing options to allow customers to finance the system with low interest bank financing programs. Many customers are able to finance the system for as much as they are currently paying for their current furnace.
Types of Ground Loop installations:
Horizontal Ground Loop:
Vertical Geothermal Ground Loop
Pond Geothermal Ground Loop
The other significance factors involved in the cost of geothermal systems are:
- Type of heating distribution; Forced Air (ducted) vs. in floor radiant (hot water heating)
- Square footage of heated/cooled space
- Amount of windows and doors (more windows = higher heat loss)
- Home construction quality (R- value of walls and attic)
- Geographical area the home is in (a home in North Bay will require more heat than a home in Windsor)
