Geothermal Home Heating Systems
Geothermal systems provide property owners with a high level of efficiency. Geothermal systems maintain a constant temperature year-round, making them a great option for a home heating system. However, they come with high installation and repair costs.
Examples of the most efficient geothermal heat pumps include:
- American Standard A2GC Series
- American Standard A2GX Series
- Bosch Greensource CDi SM Series
Expect this kind of system to cost from $11,000 to over $25,000 – a geothermal heating system represents a significant investment.
Ductless Heat Pump Systems
Ductless – or mini-split – furnaces are an example of an HVAC heating system. A ductless and efficient furnace can heat your home in a cost-effective way. Ductless systems cost less to install than geothermal systems, though they do not heat as effectively.
You can find many EnergyStar certified ductless heat pump systems. Ductless systems usually operate using minimal electricity, which keeps your operating costs low. High-rated ductless heat pump systems include:
- AirEase SCU/BCE Series
- Amama AVXC20 Series
- American Standard Platinum 18 Series
Ductless heat pumps cost from $3,000 to $12,000. The size of the ductless heat pump determines how much the system costs. Ductless heat pumps are often considered the most efficient heating system.
Standard Split Heat Pumps
Standard split heat pumps are more affordable than ductless systems and geothermal systems. A standard split system uses two units, one inside and one outside. However, split systems do not meet the efficiency levels of geothermal systems or ductless systems.
Examples of the best standard split heat pump systems are:
- Goodman GSZC18 Model
- Infinity 20 Heat Pump
- Ruud Ultra Series
- Trane XV201
Standard heat pumps cost less than both geothermal and ductless systems. You may purchase a standard system starting at $2,300 to around $6,300.
Efficient Gas Furnaces
Efficient gas furnaces tend to cost more than HVAC or heat pump systems. However, gas furnaces can keep your home warm and comfortable. You use propane or natural gas – instead of electricity – to run a gas furnace. High-efficiency gas furnaces include:
- AirEase A97USMV Series
- Airquest VC 97 Series
Gas furnaces often cost between $2,800 and $4,500, including installation.
