“Had an issue with my furnace, not running correctly and I thought it was short cycling so I called Bear Creek after having another HVAC contractor looked at it. Charge me $150 and didn't really fix the problem. The owner Kevin showed up and was able to identify the issue had a short-term fix until we could get it fixed. Kevin was very knowledgeable and a nice guy and didn't even me for the short term solution. I would strongly recommend him!”

“Where can I start? Kevin is extremely responsive and knowledgeable. Prices are also reasonable for the quality of work performed. I had an emergency leak in my basement today (had a flight to catch in a couple of hours) and denver water was taking too long to shut the water off in the house. Kevin took time out of his day off to stop by my house and temporarily fix the leak so I could make my flight later that day! The professionalism is unmatched! I will be using Kevin and his team on all sorts of projects going forward. Can’t recommend highly enough!”
“Kevin and his team came into my old moutain home and helped me install a new tankless water heater and a new furnace. They ran into all sorts of unknowns at the house, my well line started leaking into basement and it was just the tip of the iceberg. Kevin stayed numerous days helping me fight problems that were not even part of his installation. He is one who you can say will have your back through thick n thin! He sticks to what he says, where most people would try to stick it to you for unseen work.. His instalation was very thorough and he made sure I was happy before he left. l sure appreciate you helping me fight the fight with courage and leadership. Thank you Kevin and Team A+++”
What We Do
Geothermal heat pumps that help Aurora homeowners achieve maximum efficiency and long-term energy savings
Covering ground loop excavation, heat exchanger installation, system sizing through load calculation, and performance testing for closed-loop and open-loop configurations
Ground Loop & Heat Pump Install
Excavation, heat exchanger burial, unit installation, and performance testing
Site Assessment & Loop Design
Soil testing, load calculation, and closed-loop or open-loop system design
Why Us
Ground loop systems designed for Aurora's high plains terrain and clay-rich soils
Most geothermal installations fail to deliver promised savings because contractors skip proper site assessment or undersize the ground loop, leaving homeowners with high upfront costs and disappointing performance.
Common Challenges
Uncertain if property suits ground loops
Clay-rich soils and shallow bedrock across Aurora require soil testing before excavation
Upfront cost 2-3x higher than air source
Ground loop excavation and installation run $20,000-$40,000 for typical Aurora homes
Payback period stretches 10-15 years
High initial investment takes over a decade to recoup through monthly energy savings
How We Help
400-600% heating efficiency year-round
Ground temperatures stay 50-60°F regardless of harsh winter freezes or hot dry summers
Closed-loop systems sized to property
Horizontal loops for larger lots, vertical loops for smaller single-family homes and condominiums
30-50% lower operating costs vs air source
Stable ground heat exchange eliminates efficiency loss during extreme cold or heat
25-year ground loop lifespan
Buried heat exchanger outlasts indoor equipment by 10+ years with minimal maintenance
Federal tax credit covers 30% of cost
IRS Section 25D credit reduces upfront investment for qualifying geothermal installations

How We Work
How Geothermal Installation Works
From site assessment to final testing, we arrange local Aurora technicians who handle every step.
Site Assessment & Design
Technician tests soil conditions, measures available land, and designs closed-loop or open-loop system sized for your home's heating load
Ground Loop Excavation
Excavation crew installs horizontal or vertical heat exchanger loops, then backfills and restores landscaping
System Installation & Testing
Heat pump unit connected to ground loop, refrigerant charged, and performance tested to verify efficiency targets
About This Service
About this Service
Geothermal heat pump installation in Aurora focuses on properties across Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties that have room for ground loops or drill access. It fits single-family homes, townhomes with yard access, and ranch-style lots where owners want stable indoor temperatures and lower long-term energy use.
Local realities include clay-rich soils and shallow bedrock in parts of Aurora, which often push designs toward vertical boreholes instead of long trenches. Technicians perform a site assessment and ground-thermal study to size the loop field and confirm drill depth and equipment needs.
Outcome is consistent year-round heating and cooling with lower operating costs; the trade-off is higher upfront expense and temporary landscaping disruption, so expect a detailed excavation plan and a load-calculation report before work begins.
