ABOUT QUALITY

How Direct Exchange Geothermal Works

Direct Exchange geothermal systems comprise of copper tubes buried underneath, with no colossal outdoor or indoor unit. These coils will absorb the heat from earth and distribute the same in your house during the winters. On the contrary, they will enhance heat dissipation to the earth during the summer to stabilize the temperature levels inside your home. Owing to this, there is no need to install a secondary heat exchanger.

Fewer operational components are necessary to complete the setup

Electrical power consumption reduces by 70%.

Operating costs can be cut down significantly with a DX system.

Heat exchange will be much faster, thereby delivering speedy heating and cooling of the indoors.

Your HVAC system performs better

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. John did a great job replacing our grinder pump in our basement. His communication leading up to him arriving and while he was on site was on point. He was in and out in under an hour and a half. As far as the company as a whole, I reached out to multiple plumbers, and I found this one to have great customer service, very reasonable prices, and just an overall great experience. We would definitely go back to Berks Plumbing and HVAC for any needs we have in the future. Thanks to John, and the entire team!

They were professional, thorough, and cleaned up afterward. Great company and guys to work with.  Well done!  Would highly recommend them and Berks Plumbing.  We will use them for future plumbing needs.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our well pump decided to stop working on us over the weekend. We called Burke’s plumbing specialist and made an appointment for the next day. I’m Mike showed up this morning on time and really did a great job on estimating the work. 1-1-2 hours later Jose and luke show up, again two more hard working get it done guys. Fast, worked great together as a team and just got it done. Cleaned up after themselves really did a good job. I couldn’t be happier Thank you

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The central A/C in my small home (1104 square feet) was blowing warm air during a heat wave, so I called and spoke with Mike, who communicated with me in a friendly manner. He asked me if I could leave the door open while I was at work, or leave a key, which wasn’t something I felt comfortable with. So I was grateful when a technician came out and checked my outdoor unit without needing me home. Once I got a call back, I was told that my outdoor unit was totally shot and the indoor unit would have to be replaced as well due to updated freon regulations. I asked how they could be so sure, considering my indoor unit is much newer than my outdoor unit, and nobody had seen it yet. They then asked me how old it is, and I estimated it was 13 years old. I was quoted a price of $15,816 (yes, almost sixteen thousand dollars) without being given options on equipment or pricing. I was encouraged to apply for financing or find a family member who could lend me money. I was also given an “8% discount” to help, and strongly urged to have the system replaced the following day. I decided to get a second opinion out of necessity, and that company came out and fixed my central A/C for $350, by replacing the capacitor which had failed and wasn’t starting the fan (hence the warm air).  I would recommend always getting a second opinion because what one technician thinks may vastly differ from what another may find, and you could save yourself thousands of dollars.

Is geothermal heating and cooling environmentally friendly?

A geothermal HVAC system doesn’t use fossil fuels for its operations. Rather, the heat exchange occurs due to the temperature differences between the Earth and the interior rooms of your house. This further reduces your electric consumption, thereby offering eco-friendlier and sustainable solutions.

Can geothermal be installed in an existing home?

With geothermal HVAC specialists like Berks HVAC, you can install this system in your already-constructed house. Our experts will run a detailed analysis to determine the required size and capacity of the system before proposing custom solutions.

Is it possible to upgrade my current plastic geothermal loop to a copper loop?

If your geothermal system is equipped with plastic coils, the heat exchange efficiency won’t be as high as expected. So, connect with experts like Berks HVAC to replace these with pure copper coils.

Can my existing ducts and components be used with geothermal installation?

If you want to install a geothermal HVAC system, do not worry much as we will make the best use of the existing ducts and pipelines installed at your house previously.

What is the lifespan of copper geothermal loops?

The copper coils buried underneath are meant to last for a long. They are not exposed to wear and tear due to external corrosive elements, which is why they can last for 50+ years.

Will installing ground loops damage my yard or landscaping?

Although digging work will be required to install the copper coils underneath, we can assure you that your landscaping won’t be ruined completely.
