Benefits
Geothermal heat pump systems are the most efficient, cost effective and environmentally friendly HVAC systems available today. Geothermal energy is a renewable source because it draws energy from the earth and sun without having to burn fossil fuels. The technology is proven, it’s been in use for over 40 years with millions of units installed world-wide in both homes and commercial buildings.
The systems are extremely reliable and run quietly. Geothermal systems don’t have exterior components so there is no damaging exposure to weather elements, improving in the look of your home or business and adding years of life to the system. Maintenance is simple and doesn’t require more attention than conventional systems and ongoing operating costs are actually lower than conventional HVAC.
Geothermal heat pump installations in both new and existing homes reduce energy consumption up to 75% compared to older conventional systems, lowering your heat and cooling bills. Plus, there is an incentive which reduces your property taxes by the value of the system, an income tax credit of 30%, and grant programs available. In total, geothermal systems generally result in payback in as few as 2-8 years!
