I have a ground loop geothermal heat pump. It's 10 yrs old and never given me a problem. Keeps my house warm down to 10 degrees then I have to fire up my wood burner to add heat. I get my hot water for free whenever the heat pump is running and air conditioning is about $20.00 per month. The electric coop can turn my system off during periods of high demand, which happens about 3 times a year, and so I get my electric for $0.06 per kilowatt hr. Cost about $4000 to install the piping for the ground loop here 1800 ft of pipe but you can make 4 to 6 runs in the same trench. My biggest bill for heatwas about $100 one month when it wass below 0 for most of the month. Normally it is about $60.00
