What Are the Benefits of Geothermal HVAC Systems?

A: The benefit that matters most in Oklahoma is the one nobody advertises: a geothermal system has no outdoor condenser sitting in the weather. Central Oklahoma runs through an active hail corridor, and hail damage to condenser fins and line sets is a routine claim here. Move the heat exchange underground and that exposure goes away.

A few other things geothermal changes for properties in McClain, Grady, and Garvin counties:

• Red dirt loads condenser coils faster than most climates do. There is no outdoor coil to load.
• Acreage makes a loop field practical, which is why geothermal is a realistic option out here and rarely is on a small city lot.
• Propane and well water are common on rural properties. Geothermal sidesteps the fuel question entirely.
• No outdoor unit also means no compressor noise on the patio side of the house.
