Heat and Cool Your Home on the Sun's Energy
Not the Power Company's. The EPA ranks geothermal heat pumps as the most energy-efficient, environmentally clean heating and cooling system available. Somerset Well has designed and drilled systems across the Eastern Shore for 40+ years. Call for your free estimate — and ask about federal tax credits.
An EPA study of energy efficiency concluded geothermal energy is the most environmentally friendly heating/cooling system.
- The United States National Renewable Energy Laboratory concluded that geothermal energy is more efficient and cost-effective compared with conventional residential systems.
- Available everywhere in the United States, geothermal energy can be found underground virtually anywhere.
- Geothermal cost savings can be increased by geothermal energy incentives, available from federal, state, local, and utility sources.
- Energy and cost savings of geothermal heat pumps will vary by region and type of conventional system they're compared with. But the energy cost of geothermal versus conventional HVAC systems will always be lower — and the geothermal system will always be greener.
Geothermal Energy is the Best Choice
Geothermal energy is recognized as the most efficient and greenest heating/cooling method by opinion leaders in government and private sectors.
Government agencies
See what the U.S. Department of Energy and EnergyStar are saying about geothermal systems. EnergyStar has compiled a listing of approved geothermal products including a wide range of Water Furnace products that carry the EnergyStar emblem of approval. The Department of Energy Consumer's Energy Guide has data on geothermal system return on investment. The EPA's State and Local Climate Change program is focused on helping consumers take advantage of the high energy efficiency and low environmental impact of geothermal systems.
Consumer, industry, and scientific organizations
The California-based Consumer Energy Center praises versatile geothermal energy. The Geothermal Energy Association discusses the benefits of renewable geothermal energy. Find out what the Union of Concerned Scientists has to say. Even major energy producers (power plants) recognize geothermal energy advantages as a renewable source of power.
What Do Owners of Geothermal Systems Think?
Up to 95% of geothermal system owners would recommend installing such a system in the home. That's reflected in a number of online users' and owners' forums, including Geo-Exchange where you can experience the viewpoints of geothermal system owners.
