Your
Backyard as an Energy Source
For
years, smart home owners all over the world have been discovering
the advantages of heating and cooling with geothermal energy.
In fact, your home is right on top of a major source of energy:
your own backyard. Regardless of where you live, the underground
temperature stays relatively constant all year, even though
outdoor temperatures vary widely.
Geothermal
systems harness this relatively constant, renewable energy
source, and use it for heating, air conditioning and hot water.
Now you can get safe, reliable, energy efficient heating and
cooling from your own back or front yard through one piece
of geothermal equipment.
An
Unlimited Resource
The
lot surrounding a suburban home or other building contains
a vast reservoir of low temperature thermal energy, typically
10 times that required over an entire heating season. This
resource is constantly resupplied by the sun, the surrounding
earth, and heat rejected while cooling during the summer.
The
universal definition of geothermal is: "...pertaining
to the heat of the earth." By using the earth to heat
and cool a home or other building, the systems are the pinnacle
of efficiency and practicality of affordable modern-day energy
use.
Ultra-Efficient
Geothermal energy represents the leading edge of heating and
cooling technology. Compared to ordinary systems, geothermal
technology can save you 50% to 70% on your monthly energy
bills. That's because it has an efficiency rating of up to
500%.
In
other words, for every one unit of electricity the equipment
uses, it returns five units of thermal energy. Compare that
to convential gas or electric heating and cooling systems,
which, for every unit of electricity/gas return a maximum
of 0.92 units of thermal energy.
Completely
Clean and Safe
Not
only are convential electric and natural-gas based H.V.A.C
(heating, ventilation and air-conditioning) systems inefficient
when compared to geothermal systems, they are also present
significant safety risks to you and your family, and are hazardous
to the environment.
Geothermal
H.V.A.C systems have no fumes or dangerous leaks - they have
no way of emitting poisonous carbon-monoxide as well.
Not
only do they keep your indoors safe and clean, they are 100%
environment-friendly. In fact, the refrigerant used in geothermal
equipment meets future government standards and is non-toxic.
Perhaps
the Only System in your Home that Pays You
Given
their efficiency, geothermal systems completely re-pay their
initial installation cost within a matter of years - the amount
of money that you will be saving each month will be very significant.
Our
clients have enjoyed unthinkabally low energy bills during
both the coldest and hottest months of Chicagoland weather.
Geothermal
systems are simply the safest, cleanest most cost and energy
efficient H.V.A.C systems available today. Continue on to
