Custom Geothermal System Design for Every Property 

Our team of certified HVAC professionals at Schar Heating & Cooling will evaluate your property to design the ideal underground loop system for maximum efficiency and longevity.

If you have access to a pond or lake, we can install loops underwater for efficient heat exchange.
