Old Unit Removal & Testing
Safely decommission and dispose equipment, verify efficiency, and confirm system parameters after replacement.

Why Denver Geothermal

Site-specific loop recommendations with itemized replacement estimates

Incorrect loop assessment or wrong unit sizing creates poor performance, repeated repairs, and unexpected lifetime costs.

Common Challenges

Fractured bedrock complicates loop reuse
Golden's Precambrian granite and steep talus slopes often prevent reusing existing loops, requiring additional drilling, rerouting, and schedule changes.
High upfront replacement cost and incentives uncertainty
Homeowners worry tax credits or incentives may not offset replacement costs and that surprise fees inflate the final bill.
Downtime during swap affects winter comfort
Replacing equipment during heavy snow or cold spells risks loss of heat; poor scheduling can extend downtime and increase disruption.

How We Help

Post-install efficiency testing with COP readings
We document COP and delta-T during commissioning to verify performance and confirm the new unit meets expected operating parameters.
Loop reuse assessment to avoid unnecessary drilling
We evaluate ground loop condition and compatibility to reduce excavation, drilling time, and avoid unplanned loop replacement costs.
Written, itemized replacement estimates
Itemised quotes cover loop work, unit cost, disposal, and commissioning so you understand scope and avoid hidden charges.
Systems sized for mountain microclimate demands
Equipment selection accounts for elevation cooling and heavy snow heating demand to maintain consistent indoor temperatures year-round.
Scheduled commissioning and follow-up checks
A commissioning checklist and annual reminders help detect issues early and keep system performance within design parameters.

Modern geothermal units typically last 20–25 years with proper maintenance; ground loops often last 50+ years. Regular commissioning preserves performance and extends service life.

Replacement projects may qualify for federal or state renewable energy incentives depending on equipment and installation date. We review current incentives and document eligibility during your estimate.

Delaying risks higher operating costs, progressive component failure, and potential emergency replacement during winter when disruption and costs rise. Planned replacement reduces downtime and unexpected charges.

An incompatible loop can force additional drilling or rerouting, significantly increasing cost and schedule. Golden's fractured bedrock raises this risk without a proper assessment.

Local permitting requirements vary. Vertical drilling for loops may need special permits due to bedrock and slope. We help identify required permits and coordinate documentation.

Cost depends on unit size, loop work, and site geology. We provide itemized estimates after a site assessment so you can compare loop reuse versus new drilling costs.

Most replacements complete in a few days when loops are reusable. If new drilling is needed the timeline extends; we plan temporary heating and schedule around severe weather.
