Why Geothermal?

Benefits of Geothermal HVAC

Homes, business, libraries and schools all over the country are being built or are being retrofitted using Geothermal HVAC. Geothermal is 300 - 500% more efficient than conventional HVAC.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (E.P.A.), geoexchange systems save homeowners more than 30-70% in heating costs and 20-30% in cooling costs compared to conventional systems.

There are an estimated 250,000 Geothermal Installations in place in the United States and that number is on the rise. As we face another year of rising fuel costs, many homeowners are increasingly aware that an alternative heating and cooling system is a necessity.

The key is that Geothermal heat pumps use electricity to move the heat and the burning of fossil fuels is eliminated. The United States E.P.A. has stated that there is no other technology that has better operating efficiencies or economics than Geothermal HVAC.

While initially a Geothermal HVAC system is more expensive to install than conventional HVAC, Geothermal systems can provide a payback of less than 5 years and in some cases less than 2 years. The E.P.A. has concluded that Geothermal HVAC causes less environmental harm than any other system available and has the lowest CO2 emissions for minimum greenhouse effect. Geothermal HVAC offers economical operation, product quality and noise reduction. The warranties for the actual heat pump units are 10 years and the drilling itself is warranteed for 50!

The question is can you afford not to go Geothermal?
