Thanks for visiting our site. Located in Annapolis and serving Central Maryland, Earth River Geothermal is your locally-owned, full-service geothermal heating and cooling systems provider.

If you have been thinking about how a geothermal HVAC system would work for you, whether your personal priority is saving money, creating a more comfortable home or saving energy, Geothermal is the way to go!

In fact, there has never been a better time to use a geothermal heating and cooling system to more efficiently heat and cool your home or business. Historic federal, state and local geothermal incentives are in place that can significantly offset the cost of installing a geothermal heating and cooling system.

The economic benefit of harnessing geothermal energy is clear. A ground source geothermal heat pump is the most energy efficient heating and cooling technology available and it can cut your energy bills in half. Learn more about geothermal heating and cooling costs versus conventional HVAC systems.

Under current federal law there is a 30% federal geothermal tax credit for residential geothermal installations with no upper limit. The State of Maryland provides Maryland geothermal heat pump grants of up to $3,000 for residential geothermal heat pumps and up to $7,000 for commercial geothermal systems.

What's more, there are new local incentives such as Anne Arundel County's geothermal property tax credit of up to $2,500. When these geothermal energy tax credits and grants are coupled with the most energy efficient heating and cooling system on the market, your renewable energy investment can pay dividends with a payback period of as little as 5 years, depending on the type of HVAC system being replaced.

The combined price of a geothermal heat pump and geothermal installation rivals that of conventional heating and cooling systems.
