Your own backyard has the potential to be an energy source for heating and cooling comfort. Outdoor air temperatures fluctuate throughout the year with the changing seasons. In contrast, ground temperatures about four to six feet below the Earth’s surface remain relatively moderate and constant all year.   That’s because the Earth absorbs 47% of all the heat energy that reaches its surface from the sun.

A geothermal system circulates a water-based solution through a buried loop system to take advantage of these constant temperatures. A single piece of equipment has the ability to heat and cool your home, while providing some or all of your home’s hot water as well. Geothermal systems can save you 30% to 70% on your monthly utility bills.

Positive Cash Flow

From the day you install you new GeoComfort Geothermal System, you’ll see immediate savings. A perfect example of this is in new home construction. The table above shows that while the extra cost of installing geothermal marginally raises the mortgage payment, the energy savings more than make up the difference. So, not only do you have better comfort, higher property value, and lower energy costs, it’s like someone is paying you to live in your new home from day one!
