Geothermal Systems

For Savings

Yes! Finally a cost effective, environmentally responsible way to condition any space is here. Due to the amazing efficiency of a GeoSmart Geothermal system, the energy savings realized by choosing our technology can be enough to offset the capital cost associated with the installation the equipment. How can you afford not to? A GeoSmart Geothermal system operates more efficiently than ordinary heating and air conditioning systems—30 to 70 percent more efficiently, in most cases. For every unit of electricity the system uses, it provides four units of heating energy, giving a geothermal system a 400 percent efficiency rating, on average. These numbers can translate into real savings on your utility bills year-round.

For Environmental

Installing a GeoSmart Energy system in a typical home is the environmental equivalent of planting 750 trees—or taking two cars off the road. That's because our systems don't burn fossil fuels, and they don't emit carbon dioxide, which has been associated with the greenhouse effect and global warming.

The Geothermal Heat Pump Consortium says current geothermal systems save more than 14 million barrels of crude oil every year. And because the only energy needed to run geothermal systems is a small amount of electricity, they reduce the need for new coal-powered electric power plants. Result? Cleaner air and less acid rain.

Ever heard of the one-tonne challenge? Every time you drive a car, take out the garbage, heat or cool your home, or do anything else that uses energy from fossil fuels you contribute to greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) that cause climate change. For the average Canadian, that's more than 5 tonnes of GHGs a year. Add it up. Together, individual Canadians contribute more than a quarter of the country's total greenhouse gas emissions. By using a GeoSmart Energy system in your home, you could reduce not only your GHG emissions but also other emissions that contribute to air pollution and smog. We know that smog-causing pollutants are increasing our health care costs, affecting productivity and contributing to crop damage. Your efforts to reduce GHGs will give us cleaner air and healthier communities.

For Comfort

Because a GeoSmart Energy system uses the relatively stable temperature of the earth as an energy source, you're assured of constant, even winter heating and better humidity control in the summer. Due to the nature of geothermal technology, our systems move a higher volume of air thorough the home than a convention system. The overall result is a much more even temperature in every room of the house. Higher volume means that the warmth created by your new system will reach to the furthest ends of the house before the thermostat has been satisfied.

If you are building a new home and have decided on infloor heating combined with forced air cooling you will achieve the ultimate in space comfort. Our Premium EW Hydronic system will deliver all of the hot water required to keep your floors warm through fall, winter, and spring. Meanwhile your packaged Premium G forced-air system will be simply filtering air keeping it fresh and clean. When the hot summer months hit, your infloor system will shut down and forced-air cooling will begin through the use of the Premium G unit. This combination system is known as the perfect marriage of space heating and cooling.

Whatever system you choose, you will experience comfort like never before.
