Geothermal Heat Pumps in Belleville
Also Serving Throughout the Metro East Area
Geothermal heat pumps are increasing in popularity as the demand for eco-friendly energy grows. In O’Fallon, Illinois and the surrounding areas, geothermal systems are quickly gaining traction as not only the most eco-friendly HVAC system available, but also the most energy-efficient method of heating and cooling your home
How Do Geothermal Heat Pumps Work?
Geothermal heat pumps work very similarly to standard heat pumps. Instead of exchanging heat with the outdoor air, as normal air-source heat pumps do, geothermal systems exchange heat with the earth.
During the summer months, a geothermal HVAC system will send heat away from the home and into the ground in order to keep your home cool. During the winter months, the process is reversed, bringing heat back into your home from the earth.
Because geothermal heat pumps are so energy efficient, you’ll see significant savings on your energy bills. Get in touch with us today to learn more about how geothermal energy can efficiently provide your home with heating and cooling.

Types of Geothermal Heat Pumps Available
There are two major geothermal systems that heating and cooling technicians might install: closed-loop systems and open-loop heating/cooling systems.
Closed-Loop Systems
A closed-loop geothermal heating and cooling system requires minimal installation and offers low repair and maintenance costs, as it uses a small amount of energy to provide heating and cooling.
In these systems, an indoor heat pump draws on geothermal energy to create continuous air circulation. Costs to maintain these systems are fairly low, as they only periodically require maintenance.
Our heating and cooling specialists can install these HVAC systems and provide ongoing repair and maintenance services.
Open-Loop Systems
Open-loop geothermal systems are more efficient and are particularly popular with commercial businesses in Illinois. Open-loop systems draw water from a clean service well to generate heating and air conditioning.
These wells require no repair costs for Illinois businesses and are far more efficient than traditional HVAC systems. They also provide effective temperature control during all seasons of the year.
Are There Tax Credits Available for Geothermal Heat Pumps?
Geothermal heat pumps can provide you with tax credits in Belleville, Illinois and the surrounding areas. The tax credit for installing geothermal heating and cooling stands at 26% through December 21, 2022. Take advantage of these available tax credits by scheduling geothermal heat pump installation with BEL-O Cooling & Heating Inc.

They Can Be Used for Heating and Cooling
These systems offer flexible heating and cooling that is:

Energy Efficient
Geothermal energy comes from the ground, making it almost infinitely renewable. As renewable technologies continue to grow, these systems will only become more cost-efficient.
Lasts Longer Than Traditional HVAC Systems
Geothermal heat pumps frequently last for over 20 years, with far fewer repair costs than traditional HVAC models. Plus, drawing power from the Earth is far more sustainable than fossil fuels.
Warranties and Financing
Warranties and financing likely play a big part in your decision to install a geothermal heat pump. All new Carrier installations are backed by a 10-year warranty, so if any issues arise within the designated time period, you’ll be covered.
BEL-O is proud to offer one of the best financing programs around. With options available through Wells Fargo (subject to credit approval) and Microf, you’ll be sure to find financing options that work well for you.
