Very very hot in the summer

What do I need to know to convert from a standard A/C/heat pump to
Geothermal?

Geothermal cooling is a great idea in the north during the brief summers.

Geothermal heating is a great idea in the south during the brief winters.

Outside of that, it just gets more expensive and less practical.

In summer, when it's 100F outside, you are trying to get the heat from
the house into ambient outdoor heat. It really doesn't want it. However,
the ground at 50f to 60F or so 8-10' down would love to take it from
you. GSHP's are much more efficient (less power hungry) than air source
units. They are real expensive, but do pay for them selves over time.
