Understanding Heat Pump Mechanics

How does the 50 degree earth heat my building to 70 degrees? Geothermal heat pumps are not magic, but they seem like it sometimes. John Manning, PE, LEED AP, draws on his 25 years of experience in the geothermal industry to demystify this extraordinarily simple and efficient technology. This course helps you explain how heat pumps work in language people can understand - a very useful skill for building professionals.
