Geothermal is the most energy-efficient way to heat and cool a home, office or swimming pool. Geothermal also conserves natural resources and doesn’t involve the use of fossil fuels. How to heat your pool with geothermal energy is something our clients ask the Symbiont Service Corp geothermal experts about all the time.

Do you want a way to heat, and cool, a personal or commercial swimming pool? Geothermal is an ideal resource and way to heat the pool and it also brings many benefits above using gas, electric or even solar pool heating units.

• How does geothermal pool heating and energy work? 
•  
• The temperature beneath the earth remains stable — day in and day out, year after year. Geothermal energy draws on the core temperature beneath the earth to heat and cool the pool. The geothermal unit uses a heat pump to draw the heat from the earth and heat the water.
• The geothermal unit utilizes electricity to transfer the heat from beneath the earth to the geothermal unit that is heating and cooling the swimming pool.
•  
• Note: The water you’re swimming in and the water drawn from the earth, never mingle.

How clean is the air you’re breathing? Clean indoor air is safer indoor air and that is more important than ever during this time of coronavirus and the quarantine the country is dealing with.

It’s best to not assume the air in your home is safe. You also can’t know how safe and clean the air you’re breathing at work or in a shopping center or grocery store is. The air in our homes may contain unhealthy particles, bacteria and pollutants.

Our geothermal professionals understand that our customers — commercial and private homeowners — want to improve the air they breathe and we have put together a short checklist of ways to help ensure you’re breathing the cleanest air possible.

You can clean the air you breathe by investing in an electronic air cleaner. These devices are easy-to-use and maintain, reliable and effective. An electronic air cleaner may also save you money on HVAC system maintenance and repair because they pull pollutants from the air and that might keep the air filter cleaner, longer.

Heading into the hot and humid months of the summer may not seem like the time to have pool heater service maintenance performed, but now is the time to perform pool heater service. The reason is: The schedules are more open and you may have an easier time getting the appointment of your choice and when your pool heater is serviced now, it will be ready for that inevitable cool snap (you know it’s coming!) 

Community swimming pools in Englewood, Florida and across the state of Florida are beginning to open. The geothermal and swimming pool heater service professionals from Symbiont Service are in the field performing maintenance and upkeep on the more than 30 YMCA swimming pool heaters we inspect. Rest assured that when our technicians are on site they are wearing masks and gloves and maintain a more than six foot distance from one another. It is also not necessary for our technicians to have to interact with the YMCA or other swimming pool owner if the owner doesn’t want to.

The ductwork in your home and in most commercial buildings are invisible. Because of this you don’t think about it nor do you ask yourself, is your ductwork working?

Understanding and configuring the ductwork in your home or office is one of those “invisible” tasks that the geothermal professionals from Symbiont Service Corp in Englewood, Florida do pay close attention to.

The reason ductwork needs to be thought about is that in addition to efficient geothermal cooling and heating for your home or office, you need to consider the components that carry that heated or cooled air throughout. The ductwork in the home or office plays a crucial part in the efficient distribution of the air. If the ductwork hasn’t been designed properly or if it’s improperly installed, sealed or clogged you can lose more than 20% of the heated and cooled air (that you’re paying for!) because the ductwork hadn’t been properly designed.
