ecoGEO+ geothermal heat pumps for apartment buildings. Heating, cooling and hot water in every apartment or from one plant room, with no ducts and nothing on the roof.
Put a small unit in every apartment, or run the whole building from one plant room. Both use the same inverter technology and a shared ground loop.
Everything stays inside the building. The roof and the facade stay clean.
An ecoGEO+ Compact or WWA sits in a hallway closet and serves that apartment alone.
ecoGEO+ HP units in cascade make heating, cooling and hot water for every apartment.
Backup can be an electric boiler, a gas boiler or PVT. The unit’s controller manages any of them, and it is always the last resort.
Choose the system you are comparing against.
In a building, some apartments need heat while others need cooling. The shared loop moves that energy between them, so the ground only supplies the difference.
Choose how many 25-ton ecoGEO+ HP units the cascade has, up to six and 150 tons, then move the demand. Each running unit stays in its most efficient range and the operating hours are balanced between them. With more than 3 units the Supervisor coordinates the cascade, and with 3 or fewer the unit’s own controller does it.
Example with six 25-ton units, 150 tons in total. The 25-ton unit is available in three phase 208 to 230 V.
With geothermal, all the equipment is inside the building. The whole roof can be a pool, a garden, a barbecue area or a greenhouse.

32 boreholes and 72,000 sq ft of underfloor heating. Geothermal heating, cooling and hot water for the whole development.
Three ecoGEO+ HP in cascade. Heating and cooling at the same time, ready for solar PV.
A centralized ground loop with an ecoGEO+ Compact heat pump in every home. 976 tons, with heating, cooling and hot water.
Luxury apartments. Three ecoGEO+ HP in cascade, 85 tons, for heating, cooling, hot water and the pool. Wineries, factories, hotels and offices have their own page. See commercial and industrialSee all multifamily projects

Train your installerThe commercial ecoGEO+ HP covers 50 to 240 MBH and 70 to 300 MBH. The 25-ton unit is available in three phase 208 to 230 V, and the range also comes in three phase 400 to 480 V. Up to six units can run in cascade, 150 tons in total, with the Supervisor.
No. The apartment unit connects with water pipes to a fan coil or several, so there are no duct runs to build and no outdoor condensers.
The ecoGEO+ Compact has a 43 gal stainless steel tank, so each apartment makes its own hot water and resident controls their own setpoint. A central plant can also make it for the building, up to 149 °F on demand, and up to 167 °F with HTR.
The ecoGEO+ HP can produce heating and cooling simultaneously and move energy from one side to the other, which suits buildings with demand all year round.
Closed loop, open loop and dry cooler, alone or hybrid. For many individual units on one shared source, the e-source community controller balances the flow to each unit.
Very little. The compressor is the latest generation and it changes speed instead of switching on and off, so there is no start and stop and it makes less sound. There is no ducted air rushing through the building.
Federal and state programs for commercial buildings may apply to your project. Confirm eligibility with your tax advisor before you rely on any incentive.
Each unit connects to the Ecoforest portal and app, so the installer can see the data and solve most issues remotely. Ecoforest’s technical service supports commissioning at no cost.
