Geothermal Heating and Cooling

A Member of the Alberta Geothermal Team

A major source of energy is right under your feet.

Your own backyard has the potential to be your home's major source of energy. Now you can get safe, reliable, energy efficient heating and cooling from one piece of equipment. Geothermal energy represents the leading edge of home heating and cooling technology. It moves heat energy to and from the earth to heat and cool your home. And compared to ordinary systems, geothermal technology can save you 30% to 60% on your monthly energy bills. Geothermal is the safest, cleanest, most reliable space conditioning system you can buy.

Geothermal energy is an unlimited resource. The lot surrounding a suburban home contains a vast reservoir of low temperature thermal energy, typically 10 times that required over an entire heating season. And this resource is constantly resupplied by the sun, the surrounding earth, and heat rejected while cooling during the summer. The universal definition of geothermal is "...pertaining to the heat of the earth." By using the earth to provide up to 50% of a home's total energy needs, GHP systems are truly geothermal energy made practical
