Top-Rated Geothermal Replacement
Our technicians can replace any element of your geothermal heating system. Whether your heat pump has failed, or your underground loop has sprung a leak, we maintain a comprehensive component inventory and work quickly to restore your system to operational condition. It usually takes a few hours to replace and test a heat pump. In the rare instance when we need to replace the ground loop, the process can take around a few days.
When replacing your heat pump, we adhere to established protocols and procedures. These include disconnecting your current pump and confirming that all valves and electrical connections are turned off. We’ll remove the heat pump and position the new system, connect all components, bleed out the air within the lines, and confirm that the system has sufficient water or anti-freeze. We’ll then perform a series of tests and restore power to the heat pump.

Signs To Replace Your Geothermal System
Most heat pumps will provide reliable operation for 20 to 25 years, with ground loops lasting 50 years or longer. If you notice any of the following signs, it’s advisable to schedule a service appointment to determine whether your system can be repaired or requires replacing:
- Wet spots in the lawn: These can indicate leaks within the ground loop.
- Loss of power: This can mean faulty electrical components.
- Corrosion: This typically occurs because of condensation on indoor or outdoor coils.
- Rising energy bills: This usually happens because parts are failing and thus operating less efficiently.
- Rattling: Rattling can occur as components wear out and fail.

Geothermal FAQs
How warm does geothermal heating get
Ground temperatures in Kentucky tend to hover around 40 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter. High-efficiency geothermal heat pumps are designed to absorb this heat and recirculate it until it’s warm enough to heat your home, and these systems tend to operate at around 100 degrees to 120 degrees. Thus, they are sufficient to create comfortable heat within our GreenBox Home Services and from average soil conditions.
What are the disadvantages of geothermal
The most significant disadvantage of geothermal systems is the upfront installation cost, primarily due to installing the ground loop. However, when you factor in the long-term efficiency of geothermal systems (up to 400%), the cost is easily recouped long before the heat pump or loop requires replacement.
Can geothermal be used for cooling?
Absolutely! It’s as simple as reversing the flow of coolant through the system. During the summer months, the system can easily transfer heat from your home into the cooler ground.
