GeoExchange Heating and Cooling Systems

GeoExchange Heating and Cooling systems offer a practical and efficient solution to conventional fuel-burning systems. By taking advantage of the relatively consistent temperature of the Earth as a source of power, GeoExchange systems are capable of heating and cooling residences and businesses with 40% - 70% less energy than their fuel-burning counterparts. While conventional heating systems burn a fuel to generate heat, geothermal heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from the Earth to the residence or business. While it is true that fuel-burning systems can operate at around 95% efficiency, GeoExchange systems can transfer up to 4 units of heat for every single unit of electricity, operating at an efficiency rate of around 400%. While the installation cost of a GeoExchange system may be higher than that of a combustion-based system, this cost is well worth the savings that a home or business will experience in monthly operation and maintenance costs. In addition, you can be confident that you are providing a service for the environment by eliminating the production of harmful pollutants such as Carbon Monoxide and creating a safer environment for your inhabitants.
