Geothermal Systems Provide "Free" Hot Water

What is a Desuperheater?

There are a series of innovative products on the market that look to deliver hot water more efficiently. New technologies such as on-demand generation, heat pump water heaters are just a few options available. For residents in Scranton area, don't these options make sense?

Before investing in a technology that has a single function, consider a geothermal system. A Scranton geothermal heat pump  offers heating, cooling, and free hot water - all from a single unit.

A desuperheater is a component that captures the normally wasted heat created by a unit's compressor and applies it to modify the water. Although additional heat is generated in both heating and cooling modes, the hot water advantage is greatest while the unit is cooling. During the summer months, geothermal units run more often and can supply most, if not all, of your hot water. During the colder fall, winter, and spring months - when the desuperheater isn't capturing as much surplus heat - you'll need to use your existing water heating method.

If you'd like to have geothermal supply 100% of your hot water needs. Like solar solutions, the geothermal hydronic equipment qualifies for the 30% federal tax credit. However, unlike solar solutions, geothermal provides hot water 24 hours a day, rain or shine.

"Free hot water just one more reason to choose geothermal products. Set up an appointment today with one of our specialists to assess your needs, and decide if a geothermal solution makes sense for you.
