The Benefits of a Geothermal System Go Beyond Just Saving Money April 01, 2013 There are abundant advantages that you can from having a geothermal heating and cooling system set up in your home. One of the primary items that stands out is the savings you'll experience on your heating and cooling bills. Let's face it, this is presumptively the largest benefit that home owners worry about. This by itself supplies plenty of reason to upgrade to a geothermal system. That being said, there are abundant more benefits hiding just below the surface. The primary source of energy used in the heating and cooling process comes straight from the ground. It is an entirely renewable source of energy, as the sun and makeup of the Earth's core will supply a constant source of heat. The system runs extremely quietly, all while being installed indoors protected from the environment. This helps to reduce the amount of natural "wear-and-tear" that an external unit will be affected by. You'll barely even know it's there. The heating and cooling system is extremely green when compared to traditional systems. There is no combustion in the geothermal process, and it only uses a fraction of the electricity. This helps to lower your carbon footprint, and helps to keep the environment cleaner. We here at Energy Efficiency Associates will be able to work with you to find the right geothermal system for your home or business. They can easily be installed with a newly constructed home process, as well as installed into existing homes. So contact us today.
