WaterFurnace's Geothermal Heat Pumps are green, cost-efficient heating and cooling systems. These geothermal heat pumps are recognized by the EPA as being the most environmentally friendly systems on the market. Although weather conditions fluctuate within any climate, the temperature underground remains relatively steady year-round because of the amount of energy constantly absorbed by the sun. This energy is renewable, free, and doesn't emit dangerous fossil fuels.

The Practicality of a
WaterFurnace Geothermal
Heat Pump

Geothermal pumps distribute heat from the ground through a conventional duct system in the winter, and lower the temperature in your home in the summer months by extracting warm air. WaterFurnace's Geothermal Heat Pumps offer a reliable, safe and cost-effective home energy solution. By combining stored earth energy with safe electric power, you are reducing your carbon footprint by installing a geothermal heat pump. Because these systems are installed indoors, there is no wear or tear from the elements, which means that your investment will last for years to come.

Geothermal Tax Credits for
WaterFurnace Heat Pumps

Geothermal tax credits are available for newly installed systems. Since these are tax credits rather than deductions, you will save full dollars instead of a percentage of a dollar. When comparing the installation or replacement of regular air-to-air HVAC systems with geothermal, keep in mind that tax credits can make up a good portion of the upfront cost of a geothermal system.

Opportunity for a
25% Tax Credit in
South Carolina

A 25% South Carolina Income Tax Credit was signed into law by Governor Nikki Haley on February 16, 2016. The tax credit applies to residential geothermal installations from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018.

• Installation must be in South Carolina and owned by the taxpayer claiming the credit.
• The credit cannot exceed $3,500 for each residential property or 50% of the taxpayer's total tax liability for any one tax year.
