A standard heat pump costs about $5,000, a geothermal would have cost about $15,000. And they operate cheaply. Heating is cheaper because the system is warming underground air from 50 to 75 and cooling is nearly free (it just fans 50F into the house). <Mark's Mews (Marley, Lori, Loki, and Binq)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11135668126649348317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652957.post-62237553980767092522017-07-24T11:22:30.496-07:002017-07-24T11:22:30.496-07:00ugh - I feel your pain. though my furnace went out...ugh - I feel your pain. though my furnace went out one year in January....came home and the house was 55 degrees inside. brrrRandom Felineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02591546634183113556noreply@blogger.com
