The geothermal heat pump paid for itself

One time a hurricane knocked out the power for this whole neighborhood for an entire week, and with temps in the upper 90s I don’t know I would have survived without air conditioning! But because I had this geothermal heat pump, I was the only house for a mile in every direction that still had full power

This deep into the south, we have a lot of issues to contend with that northern folk never think about. First and foremost I mean the bugs, because the hot, muggy conditions are perfect for developing the meaning and ugliest biting bugs you can find. The heat itself is another issue that lasts more or less all year long. If you can wear shorts on Christmas morning, you are probably in the South! There are also the hurricanes which hit us every year, which are like a series of world-ending storms you just hope to survive. For all of these reasons, and a whole lot more, I own a geothermal heat pump. One time a hurricane knocked out the power for this whole neighborhood for an entire week, and with temps in the upper 90s I don’t know I would have survived without air conditioning! But because I had this geothermal heat pump, I was the only house for a mile in every direction that still had full power. The neighbors would come over to charge their phones or electronic devices, and why not let them? The geothermal heat pump generates a limitless amount of energy, the only limitation is the size of our house. We could have had 20 people hanging out in the AC at any given time, but my place just isn’t big enough for that. After that incident, I never again complained about how much money the geothermal heat pump had cost to install, because it had paid for itself ten times over that week alone!
