Re: Geothermal Power
I can not say enough good about Geothermal. While it is true that it cools better than it heats, my system still saves a great deal of money and energy in the Winter. I am in Minnesota--so heating does become important! This is a no brainer and anyone doing new construction should do it if at all possible. My retrofit had about 10 year payback or 9% return--for new construction or if you need to upgrade a furnace or AC system than this is a great investment.
In certain regions this is the best solution...
