Geothermal System Maintenance Near St. Louis, Missouri

Geothermal heat pumps are made up of “loops” that are filled with antifreeze or a water and antifreeze mix. In order for your geothermal system to function properly, the antifreeze needs to be maintained at a proper level. When you entrust the geothermal experts at Anton’s Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Energy Experts for maintenance, we will inspect the levels of antifreeze in your pipes and adjust accordingly. Additionally, the pressure and temperatures within the loops will be inspected and adjusted if needed as well.

When Anton’s Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Energy Experts performs maintenance, we will clean any parts of your system that could be potentially affected by this dirt and debris and ensure that they are clean and running properly.

A common misconception about heat pump systems is that the air duct system does not need to be maintained like traditional HVAC systems. Geothermal air duct systems do need to be inspected by professionals to ensure their airflow is efficient and functioning.
