- Zone 1: Main floor & basement

- Zone 2: Second-floor bedrooms, hallway storage, and full bath

- Zone 3: Primary bedroom and primary bath suite

This is a horizontal closed-loop geothermal system: heat is transferred into the ground and returned to the unit, allowing for quieter, more efficient operation with a longer lifespan than traditional HVAC condensing units. Geothermal systems perform especially well in high outdoor temperatures and eliminate the need for noisy or unsightly exterior compressors.
