Geothermal Heating & Cooling Systems - Advantages for Architects and Engineers

The Advantages of Geothermal Heating and Cooling to Architects and Engineers

  • design flexibility because roof and landscape are free of outdoor equipment
  • one miniaturized unit can provide heating, cooling and water heating
  • less space required for installation leaves greater design flexibility
  • smaller, enclosed, quieter, hidden unit may be located in basement, utility room or outside
Architects can benefit from Geothermal Heating and Cooling Systems
  • greater lifestyle benefits from small, fully enclosed Geothermal system which provides constant comfort, free of blasts of hot or cold air and no defrost cycle
  • technology-based unit provides most efficient source for heating and cooling (40 to 60% annual savings of geothermal heating system vs. air source heat pumps) and optional water heating. The system boasts a certified coefficiency of up to 5.0
  • lower combined mortgage and utility payments because of substantially lower operating cost
  • easier, quicker installation than water source Geothermal systems
  • 85% smaller vertical bore and trenching requirement than water source Geothermal systems
  • more options for vertical, horizontal and diagonal earth loops; water heating options
  • 75% reliance on renewable energy results in conservation and clean air and water
  • environmental friendliness creates pride in consumer and distinguishing design feature
  • cleaner indoor air results from greater filtration during longer run cycles
