Geothermal Heating & Cooling Systems
Benefits of Geothermal Systems Geothermal systems supply unmatched benefits as compared to other more traditional heating and cooling systems, such as:
Geothermal Energy Advantages The main advantage of a geothermal heating and cooling system is its energy efficiency. For every one unit of energy a geothermal system uses, it produces 2.5 to 3.5 units of heat which meaning an average efficiency of over 300 percent! In comparison, a high-efficiency natural gas furnace would have an efficiency of 92 percent, meaning 92 cents of every energy dollar used is put back into your home in the form of warmed air. In older homes, you might be replacing a heating system with an efficiency of 60 percent or even less. Installing a geothermal system means you'll get the most value, comfort and convenience for your energy dollar. Residential home savings A geothermal system can cut energy costs by 30 percent over natural gas & oil systems, and up to 50 percent over electric resistance heating. You could expect to save $20,000 on your utility bills over the life of the system.. The cost of an average three-ton geothermal system for a 2,000 square foot home is comparable to a traditional system. You'll also need to add the cost of installing the ground loop. Cost will vary on the type of loop chosen. Geothermal in Action: Residential Commercial savings With the volatility in natural gas prices, energy efficiency is the investment that will protect your bottom line for years & years to come. In addition to energy savings, your business will also benefit from lower maintenance costs, more usable space and better comfort for employees and customers. While geothermal system may be more expensive to install, the return on investment is roughly 5 to 7 years. A U.S. Environmental Protection Agency report indicated that geothermal heating and cooling systems average 40 percent greater efficiency than air-source heat pumps, 48 percent better than natural gas furnaces and 75 percent better than oil furnaces.
