When building a new home, it is wise to consider a heating and cooling system that has low operating costs. Geothermal heating and cooling systems are the highest efficiency option available to home owners and are 45% higher efficiency than air source heat pumps, according to the Department of Energy. This high efficiency can dramatically reduce the carbon footprint of the building and save big money over the life of the building. Geothermal heat pumps [...]

One of the highest operating expenses for a commercial or government building is the heating and cooling utility costs. One of the best ways to address this is by upgrading to geothermal heating and cooling. Geothermal heating and cooling systems are the highest efficiency option available and are 45% higher efficiency than air source heat pumps, according to the Department of Energy. Geothermal can be one of the lowest cost options for commercial buildings, even [...]

Geothermal heating and cooling systems are the highest efficiency option available to homeowners and are 45% higher efficiency than air source heat pumps, according to the Department of Energy. A geothermal heat pump uses the relatively stable temperature of the ground as a source and sink for thermal energy for the building. A geothermal heating and cooling system will require a geothermal heat exchanger: there are a wide variety of geo exchange designs but the [...]
