How Does Geothermal Cooling Work?
Geothermal cooling systems take advantage of the stable underground temperature to naturally cool your home or business. Unlike traditional air conditioning, which relies on energy-intensive compressors, geothermal systems transfer heat between your building and the ground for efficient cooling.
The Geothermal Cooling Process:
- Ground Loop System – Pipes are installed underground or in a nearby water source, where temperatures remain stable year-round.
- Heat Exchange – A geothermal heat pump extracts heat from your indoor air and transfers it into the ground.
- Air Distribution – The cooled air is circulated through your existing ductwork or a ductless system for even temperature control.
Because geothermal systems don’t rely on outside air, they provide higher efficiency and greater reliability, even in extreme weather conditions.

We have been using JonLe for almost 40 years. We have never had a single problem with them. The office staff are always very friendly and helpful. The technician’s are always on time and very knowledgeable and respectful of your property. They will advise you have any issues and make suggestions to improve your heating and cooling systems but they are never a hard sell. They have been with us through 2 houses and now a condo. We always purchase the yearly maintenance package so they come once in the spring and again late fall or early winter. We wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. Thank you. Gj and Doris Poore Walton Ky

My intention was to have sent this email a few days ago, but it is only now that I have the opportunity to do so. I want to express my appreciation to Waterworks for the prompt response to our request for emergency services on Tuesday 1/27 and especially to Mat Ball, the technician who, despite weather conditions, made it to our home early that morning. Mat was knowledgeable and diligent and took care of the situation in a timely and professional manner. When the job was completed, he walked us through all that was needed to get it done. Many people take care of business, what sets Mat apart is the pleasant demeanor he exhibits while performing his responsibilities. Great Job, J.A.Mesquida
