2. Ground source heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_source_heat_pump

   A ground source heat pump (also geothermal heat pump) is a heating/cooling system for buildings that use a type of heat pump to transfer heat to or from the ground, taking advantage of the relative constancy of temperatures of the earth through the seasons. Ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) – or geothermal heat pumps (GHP), as they are ...

3. Heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

   A heat pump is a device that uses work to transfer heat from a cool space to a warm space by transferring thermal energy using a refrigeration cycle, cooling the cool space and warming the warm space. [1] In cold weather, a heat pump can move heat from the cool outdoors to warm a house; the pump may also be designed to move heat from the house ...

4. Absorption heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_heat_pump

   An absorption heat pump ( AHP) is a heat pump driven by thermal energy such as combustion of natural gas, steam solar-heated water, air or geothermal-heated water [1] [2] differently from compression heat pumps that are driven by mechanical energy. [citation needed] AHPs are more complex and require larger units compared to compression heat ...

   According to Adams, since the manufacturing and installation process for ACs and heat pumps are almost the same, upgrading from an AC to a heat pump of the same model would only cost an extra $300 ...

7. Direct exchange geothermal heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_exchange_geothermal...

   A direct exchange (DX) geothermal heat pump is a type of ground source heat pump in which refrigerant circulates through copper tubing placed in the ground unlike other ground source heat pumps where refrigerant is restricted to the heat pump itself with a secondary loop in the ground filled with a mixture of water and anti-freeze.
