Dandelion is a geothermal heating provider located in the United States, primarily serving the Northeastern region. Established in 2017 as an independent entity spun off from Google's X Development, the company specializes in HVAC solutions centered around geothermal heating and cooling.
The technology employed by Dandelion involves a heat pump that transfers thermal energy either into or out of residential buildings. In February 2019, the company raised $16 million through a Series A investment round aimed at broadening its range of home geothermal systems. CEO Kathy Hannun received recognition from Fast Company in 2018 as one of the most innovative leaders.
In June 2018, Dandelion introduced Dandelion Air, the first geothermal heat pump priced below $20,000. This system, designed and installed by Dandelion on homes, is offered with financing plans extending up to 20 years. Its purpose is to lower energy expenses by utilizing efficient geothermal technology.
By September 2020, Dandelion had extended its services to Connecticut, focusing on Fairfield and New Haven counties to enhance its regional market footprint.
