how it works
GeoExchange technology uses a series of sealed piping loops buried in the ground that tap the renewable energy of the earth. These loops create a better heat transfer medium than traditional air source systems. It is so efficient that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has stated:
“GeoExchange systems are the most energy-efficient, environmentally clean and cost-effective space conditioning system available today.”
Initial Cost, Payback and Operational Savings
Although it typically costs more to install GeoExchange HVAC, with tax incentives up to 30%, the payback period is dramatically reduced, sometimes being less than five years. The operational savings are between 40–70% for cooling and heating in every season.
The Benefits

— Dependable Service
— Enhanced Aesthetic: No Outside Exposed Equipment
— Less Noise Pollution
— Free Hot Water
— Minimal Liability: 5-10 Year Warranty
— Green Friendly: LEED Experienced
— Vandal/Hurricane Proof
