Ground Source Systems
Acreage properties with stable ground temperatures year-round — geothermal systems that cut energy costs 40-60% once the ground loop is in.
What We Do
Covering ground loop excavation, closed-loop and open-loop heat exchanger installation, system commissioning, and performance testing with load calculation reports.
Ground Loop Installation & Commissioning
Excavation, heat exchanger burial, and system testing with load calculation
Site Assessment & Loop Design
Soil testing and property evaluation to determine optimal ground loop configuration
Why Aurora Heat Pumps
Geothermal systems deliver the highest efficiency available, but only when the ground loop is sized correctly and the property has adequate land. Most installation failures start with poor site assessment or undersized heat exchangers.
Prairie soils and flat terrain require soil testing to confirm thermal conductivity before excavation starts
Ground loop excavation and heat exchanger installation costs $20,000-$40,000 more than air source systems
Despite 40-60% lower operating costs, high upfront investment takes over a decade to recover through energy savings
Ground temperatures stay 50-55°F year-round, so geothermal systems use less energy than air source models cycling through extreme temperature range
Ground heat exchange eliminates outdoor temperature dependency, delivering consistent performance during Foxfield's coldest winter days
Who We Help
Geothermal systems make sense for properties with adequate land and owners who plan to stay 10+ years.
New builds on acreage properties where ground loop installation happens before landscaping and hardscaping go in
Rural properties with flat terrain and prairie soils suitable for horizontal closed-loop heat exchanger systems
Low-density residential properties where quiet operation and long-term energy savings justify higher upfront investment
How We Work
From site assessment to system commissioning, we arrange local technicians who handle the entire process.
Site Assessment & Design
Technician evaluates soil conditions, property layout, and heating load to determine ground loop configuration and system sizing
Ground Loop Installation
Excavation and heat exchanger burial with pressure testing to confirm loop integrity before backfilling
System Commissioning
Heat pump installation, refrigerant charge, and performance testing to verify efficiency targets are met
