Benefits
Geothermal energy is a type of renewable energy that
encourages conservation of natural resources. According to the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, geo-exchange systems
save homeowners 30-70 percent in heating costs, and 20-50
percent in cooling costs, compared to conventional systems!
Geothermal heating and cooling is the most energy-efficient,
environmentally clean, and cost-effective space conditioning
system available, according to the Environmental Protection
Agency. This power source is cost effective, reliable, and
environmentally friendly. Geothermal Heating and Cooling
Systems work by moving heat, rather than by converting chemical
energy to heat like in a furnace. These heating systems are a
viable alternative anywhere there is a need for heat or
cooling.

Geothermal heat pumps use the Earth's constant temperatures to
heat and cool buildings. These heat pumps are used for space
heating and cooling, as well as water heating. This energy is a
renewable energy source because the water is replenished by
rainfall and the heat is continuously produced inside the
Earth. It is used for heating and cooling buildings at super
high efficiencies. Geothermal operates efficiently because the
energy source, the sun, has already created the energy and
stored it in the earth. Geothermal heat pumps can cost more to
install than the conventional heating and cooling systems,
however the added efficiency results in greater savings.
Geothermal heating has grown rapidly as one of the sectors of
renewable energy. This highly efficient heat source is
flame-less, therefore producing no health and safety concerns as
associated with fossil fuels. Where is geothermal heating and
cooling utilized? By hundreds of schools, office buildings,
retirement facilities, and government buildings.
Geothermal heating and cooling is our passion, and that is
why we specialize in providing only quality materials, equipment
and labor to our customers.
Our installations do not require damming of rivers or cutting
down forests, and there are no mineshafts, tunnels, open pits,
waste heaps or oil spills. Geothermal energy works, day and
night, hot or cold. This natural energy saving industry is
helping provide diversity and security in an environment of
uncertainty.
Geo-exchange systems also save money because they require
much less maintenance. In addition to being highly reliable they
are built to last for decades and can add considerably to the
resale value of a structure.
Some utility
companies offer special, discounted rates for geothermal
customers, offering even more savings!
