Service Identity
Denver Geothermal provides planning, estimation, and delivery of Geothermal Heat Pumps work for homes with yard space and limited-space properties in the Denver metro area. We focus on the practical steps property owners need to get a complete system: site evaluation, loop type recommendation (horizontal, vertical, pond, open), indoor unit selection, and a written scope that lists components and tests.
Typical customers call when an existing furnace or AC fails, when they are building new, or when rising utility bills make long-term savings a priority. Common symptoms include high energy bills, uneven indoor temperatures, noisy outdoor equipment, or aging ductwork that needs compatibility checks. We explain trade-offs for trenching versus boreholes, HDPE piping and loop fluid choices, and what to expect for site preparation and yard disruption.
How It Works
-
Initial contact and intake: You request a quote by phone or web form. We gather property basics: lot size, existing HVAC type, ductwork condition, and any known soil or yard constraints.
-
Site evaluation: We perform an on-site or remote site evaluation and loop feasibility report. The review checks yard space, soil type, utility easements, and whether a horizontal loop, vertical boreholes, pond loop, or open loop fits the property.
-
Written estimate and scope: We produce an itemized, written estimate covering ground loops (HDPE piping, loop fluid, trenching or boreholes), indoor unit and heat exchanger, site preparation, connections to ductwork, and commissioning checks. The estimate lists timeframe, included tests, and any necessary permits.
-
Scheduling installation: After you accept the estimate we schedule site prep, trenching or drilling, loop installation, indoor unit setup, and system integration. Work stages include trenching or drilling boreholes, loop grouting where required, and connecting loop piping to the heat exchanger.
-
Testing and commissioning: Before handover we perform pressure testing of loops, performance checks of the heat pump and indoor unit, and system commissioning. We provide a commissioning checklist and basic user guidance. Ongoing maintenance visits and reminders can be arranged.
Oversight & Standards
All enquiries pass through a documented scope review to make sure decision criteria are clear: total cost including loops and unit, which loop type fits the yard size, compatibility with existing ductwork, and the timeframe for installation. We itemize site preparation tasks so customers can judge potential yard impact and excavation needs.
Quality expectations focus on proven installation steps and verifiable tests. Standard practice includes pressure testing of HDPE loop piping, performance checks for COP and temperature differential, and a commissioning checklist that verifies controls, defrost cycles, and thermostat integration. For properties requiring boreholes, we check grout specification and borehole sealing practices.
We address common objections directly. Soil conditions that affect drilling or trenching are noted early in the feasibility report. Estimates call out permit requirements and likely excavation scope so customers understand disruption and can compare total costs and timelines before work starts.
Service Coverage
We serve Denver and the Denver metropolitan area, working with single-family homes, limited-space properties, new builds, and small commercial sites. Common local situations include retrofit projects where the existing outdoor unit is being replaced, new construction requiring integrated HVAC design, and properties with constrained yard space that need vertical loops.
Availability varies by project size and permitting needs. We provide feasibility feedback for properties across the metro area and list the site constraints that typically affect loop selection, drilling needs, and schedule. Customers receive the geographic scope information during the initial intake.
Our team
Denver Geothermal performs site evaluation, loop design, installation supervision, and commissioning directly. Field staff hold industry certifications and licences relevant to geothermal work, including NATE Certification, IGSHPA Accreditation, EPA Section 608 Certification, a Master Mechanical License, and an HVAC Contractor License. Those credentials support work on HDPE piping, heat exchangers, trenching, and borehole drilling.
Work follows a written scope and a commissioning checklist. Technicians complete pressure testing, performance checks, and system integration tasks on site. For post-install needs we schedule commissioning follow-up and annual maintenance reminders to ensure loop performance and heat pump operation continue to meet expected parameters.
