Q: Can I stay in my home if there's a coolant leak?

• <div><p>While it's generally safe to stay in a home with a coolant leak if your home is properly ventilated, it's important to have a professional come out to assess the situation right away. You should evacuate your home if you notice any powerful fumes. Additionally, you should leave your home if you are experiencing headaches or dizziness.</p></div>

Q: Is a geothermal heat pump worth it?

• <div><p>Yes, geothermal heat pumps are worth the money. You can save about 70% on heating costs in the winter and around 50% on cooling costs in the summer with a geothermal heat pump compared to a traditional HVAC system.

If you have an incredibly small yard, however, you may not have enough space for this type of system. </p></div>
