# What is geothermal?

Geothermal harnesses the steady underground temperature for efficient, year-round heating and cooling. In winter, water-filled pipes buried under the home absorb heat from the earth. Your heat pump uses this energy to heat the home. In summer, the same heat pump cools the home by rejecting heat into the earth rather than an outdoor cooling unit. Leveraging energy from the earth, geothermal is clean, reliable, and 100% renewable.
